Some viewers may find the following video disturbing. Viewer discretion is advised. Hey everyone, welcome back to Board Games Unlocked and Devin and I are playing Hour of Need. Need. Speed. You Yeah. And I'll take this die. Orange hell. Yep, we are playing Hour of Need and we as the as we're heroes. Yep, we're heroes ready to stop curtains. We're going to stop curtains. [ __ ] that curtains guy. Yeah, what is uh Oh, I was like what is the what's what's the saying curtains foiled again? That's probably what he says. It's I think it's curses. Curses. Curtains foiled again. again. Anyway, uh Curtains is attacking the city uh trying to do the old century heist, you know, classic classic just going take the money.

Trying to take the gold. Where is the gold? And uh Judge and Belt are ready. We're we're coming to hero. Can't let that happen. So we got of course Daredevil and Batman over here. So let's see what this is about. For the record, this is a complexity two. Ooh. Special rules and clarifications. Don't forget to solve the vault when it becomes opened. It may be the only way to delay the villain before they escape with the gold. Okay. Main file. The streets of New Crown City are as busy as any other day. Average citizens pick up their morning coffee on their way to work, drop off their children at school, and report to their routine I don't know what's wrong with that person's kid.

Downtown is the most thriving district where executives and creatives alike stimulate the economy. At the heart of it all is Century Bank. Century Bank. "Good morning, Deb." Walter's voice echoes as he swipes his badge at the clerk's entrance. The massive vault is the that is the centerpiece of the bank's cavernous lobby gleams as the morning light pours in from the high windows. How's Michael? He's good, Debra says with a Dead. Yeah, he was murdered by curtains. He was smothered to death with his cape. Debra says with a smile blowing steam off her morning coffee. No detention this week. Walter laughs as she rests one hand on her holstered sidearm. Never one to get too comfortable at her post. Even though Century Bank employs a guard at both entrances, Debra was responsible for the entire lobby and she took her job very seriously.

Don't worry too hot Walter's voice is suddenly cut off as the clerk's door closes on Debra. His muffled voice sounds panicked. How'd you get back here? Debra takes a step toward the teller's window but hears the familiar click of a handgun behind her. She freezes her hand jolting away from her own gun as if it were scalding hot. What would What would Curtain's voice be? You're not using the curtains. TAKE A BREAK. USE THE GUN. ALL RIGHT, THEN WE'LL GO WITH THAT. Take a break. A menacing voice instructs as an unfamiliar hand removes the gun from Debra's holster. It's going to be a long morning. All right, scheme instructions. Play before play begins read the corresponding introduction. So, what do we have? I have the locksmith and which one do you have? You have I have subway tunnels escape routes.

Escape routes. Okay, so here's So, we read both of these. The locksmith. Um Locksley knocked another arrow as his new employer laid out the plans that were his wrist communicator. He released sending another shaft through the spinning metal ring that hung from the goal post at the other end of the empty stadium. I can do it, Locks says. I've never seen the vault I can't get into. You just worry about the pay. I'm not cheap. I'll meet you at the warehouse. The lock picking assassin clicked off his communicator and gathered his arrows, wondering if his employer knew just how little a mercenary can be trusted. And then this says, "There's no way any There's no way anyone is getting into the Century Bank vault, unless" And you have escape routes? Escape routes? Marty slammed down his phone, taking a puff from his quickly depleting cigarette.

He mashed it into an ashtray as he stared at the flashing lights of the subway tunnel displaying in the control room of the New Crown City Department of Transportation. "What's going on down there?" he demanded to know from no one in particular. "Sir," a young man in a suit said as he approached cautiously, "We have We have three teams down in the east tunnels, and there seems to be some unauthorized construction equipment blocking several routes. We're working on clearing them." "Well, work harder," Marty shouted, lighting another cigarette. "While those trains sit idle, we can't get anyone OUT OF THE

ALL RIGHT, WHAT'S THE WHAT'S THE THE RED OR THE YELLOW TEXT? The villains' minions are securing an escape route in the New Crown City subway tunnels. Its entrance is heavily guarded. Good. Good. So, we have story moments that these are Good. I needed a workout as I put my sock on my head. You're actually not blind, but for your superhero, you make yourself blind. It's like you Dude, you could easily find No, my senses are heightened. All right. New Crown Okay, CALM DOWN, AMBER HEARD. NEW Crown City is home to several globally coveted financial institutions, but Century Bank is a premier home for all funds channeled through private corporations, organized crime, and secret political fundraising efforts. If that wasn't enough to tempt thieves, a recent shipment of gold bars traveling towards the nation's capital now occupy Century Bank's vault.

So, we have special rules. Um well, first, set the vault aside. The vault is closed or it's sealed right now. If this card ever has three issue tokens on it, discard it then flip it. And it has a crisis where we place an issue token on it. Uh-oh. And then special rules, after hero attacks the villain they may discard two total justice from the vault to return one issue token from the villain card to the vault. If there were ever three issue tokens on this card, the villain has escaped with the gold and the heroes lose. So, by attacking him Mhm. Basically, uh thematically the way I see it is that when issue tokens are going on to him He's gathering gold. That's the gold. Okay. Cuz they come from this on this has to fill up first.

So, this will fill up with issue tokens and then he goes there to start collecting it. he starts collecting them and then on on the reverse side of this, uh that's what the the special rules were is we can solve that to put um justice tokens on it uh to be able to then spend them to get the gold back. Okay. That's how we delay his ass. Okay. Uh and curtains, um he limits our focus supply uh to 10. Special rules, heroes cannot gain focus tokens from this card. Each time any amount of justice would be placed on this card, discard one focus from this card if able to reduce the amount of justice placed by two. So, he basically gets a shield.

limits my focus. I'm a focus heavy guy. You are. You are. And I am playing uh judge. Judge. And then my sis sister's out uh to the other town as jury. Jury. So, Jury's such a [ __ ] I have I know. She's She's like she's so revealed. I'm honest. Uh but yeah, like as judge I have 14 health uh two inflict Two bam. Two bam and two think. And two hm and two bam. And then I have on the case. As an action I can solve gaining plus one die if I have at least one clue card. Okay. And then my focus side brings me at still 14 health but three and three. And then I have sentencing. As an action I can solve getting plus one and targeting any problem card. Then flip this card.

And then I can exhaust this to place one justice token on any problem card. Peace. So. So yeah, that's uh That's judge. Okay. What about you? Sexy. I'm built. So I don't have like an uber side. It only cost me two focus to flip my card. Uh when I'm in my discerning mode, as an action I may move up to four spaces. Then I may defeat up to two minions in my scheme panel. Then I may discard one focus to solve. And then I flip. And then now I'm in attack mode. So I have two attack versus one think. The other one I had two think and two and one attack. So and when I'm in attack mode I'm being the threat. I can see here. As an action I move up to four spaces and attack. Then I may discard a focus to move it up to three spaces and attack. Nice.

So I'm very mobile. Yep. Yep, ready to beat some ass. All right. Well, let's go ahead and get started. Draw your four cards. Okay. And then let's start with the villain turn. So let's I WILL DRAW PLOT TWIST. Oh no. All right. Well, he is going to scheme. If the vault is open side, he advances otherwise place one issue on the vault. He is already getting Oh, what does that say? The industrial side of downtown is home to many dark and dreary places. Perfect places for nefarious figures to hatch devious plots. Okay. And then well, [ __ ] I mean, he's already off to a pretty poopy start. Will you place Will you place a bystander in his location?

A bystander in his location? He already caught a guy. He did. He did. He's He's He's on it. That was literally it. Just plot twist. No No other effects. So. And then your card. My card. THE VILLAIN. ON CORE. GREEN BLAZE. It's It's not there. Yep. Thank you. Minion. Okay. And then he does his special action. Curtains gains one focus from the supply. Great. That's that. That's it. All right. On core. Curtains foiled again. Well, time to beat his ass.

Can we start anywhere around that symbol? We can. Yeah. going to place it Okay. Okay. Um I So, we can go kind of back and forth on our turns as long as we don't Okay. I'm going to place some cards. Go for it. I'm going to [ __ ] meditate and [ __ ] so I get me some focus. And I get to draw a card. Nice. Pretty good. Uh let's see here.

I might immediately jump. Damn. He's right where I need to go. I'm going to hold on to this card cuz I know it's Wait. Choo choo. Super helpful. Yes. I will play heightened senses. Okay. We want to put these up here. Uh yeah. Okay. I My senses are high. Or you can put them next to your hero um cuz that uh the top area is your technically your threat location. Heightened senses. I may discard focus now when I solve the game dice. Oh, nice. And then I can exhaust it to gain focus, which I will do.

Must be nice having all that focus. I needed for reasons. I fuel a lot of [ __ ] off focus. And then I will I'm going to do an action card now. [ __ ] let's book it. I'm going to do protect the innocent. I get to do a double move. I'll put my discard pile. That sounds like That is my discard pile. I do a double move. 1 2 3 4 5 6 pick up a boy. Nice. Getting a clue card. I don't mind if I do. Shared intel. Choose to hear it to gain up to two focus. Oh. That's pretty good. be something nice of me to do for myself. Uh then okay, I still have one action left. Oh, I gained focus because I did pick up a bystander.

Nice. And now I will do my combo action where I move up to four spaces, defeat two minions. There's none in blue, so that doesn't have any effect. But then I can solve the subway tunnels, which is my plan. Okay. So I'm going to do that and then I go there and solve. Is this your second action? This is my second action, yes. So I'll solve some [ __ ] So I get two dice. Let me spend a focus to do a third dice. And do I want to spend it? I mean, we need to get rid of it or that's two focus. I like focus. Yeah, two focus that. Yeah, two focus is pretty good. I'm solving what is at the end of THESE SUBWAY TUNNELS.

AS I use my echolocation really loud. Just poke around. What the [ __ ] is in here? You do it right IN MARTY'S EARS. ALL RIGHT. I GOT A BURST. LET'S [ __ ] write that [ __ ] Okay, that's three and a focus. Do you want to gain a focus? Uh Or do you want to spend a focus to make it four towards it. I will. Let's make it four. Four [ __ ] Whittle it down. Nice. So I just start screeching down an empty SUBWAY TUNNEL. JUST REALLY GETTING IN THE HEAD. MARTY'S JUST sitting there smoking a cigarette. He's just like One last job and my kid will BE LEUKEMIA FREE. JUST LIKE SUCKS IN THE CIGARETTE. THE EARS ARE BLEEDING.

It sounds like someone needs help. It looks like they're choking. Was that your entire return? That was it. All right. Well I I was ready to go. Do your threat phase. What's your activate? Oh, I have to do my threat. Oh. did both your actions. Activate. If there is at least one minion in the subway tunnels, no. That's it. Otherwise Otherwise, place a minion in the subway tunnels. I'm like, there's no way we're getting scot-free with that. There you go. I could have whooped his ass earlier. He's like He he was hiding. He saw some dude saying All right. My turn. Judge. All right. So I'm going to move. So I'm going to go one, two, three, which puts me in here with sexy boy. Uh and then I am going to play Burden of Proof. I may solve then choose a hero to gain one clue card. Um What are you doing in your curtains?

Uh No, I can't I Well, I have to do my The Locksmith. So that is going to be two. Uh that's actually fine. Um I'm going to play Swift Justice to ignore the three damage from him. Uh so that that is going to be two. I'm just going to put one on here and then save this guy. Oh, yeah. Get your clues. So that's actually going to get me two clue cards. Ooh. You're investigating his room for improv. You know, I usually have a rule of I don't kill anyone, but I think I'm killing you. I think curtains I the world is better off. So, I got shared intel, choose a hero to gain two focus, and then point of interest, I may either place one justice token on each problem card or three justice tokens on one problem.

of justice. Mhm. Both of these are really, really good. Uh So, with that I could solve a game. You could solve a game. Mhm. I think I might actually. Yeah, I think for my second action, I'm going to do on the case gaining plus one die. Uh and then I will end up taking three dam- You know what? [ __ ] it. No, I'm going to do my second swift justice. I'm not going to take any damage. Uh so, that's going to be three 1 2 3 Now, I kind of want to get into my focus state, so maybe if you do shared intel, it would help me out. That would be so nice of me.

All right. HEY, A BURST. OKAY. UM OH, I GOT THE FOCUS from the the last one. So, that will be You need to do me. Going to make it four? Yeah. Cash it in. So, it's going to be 1 2 3 4, and I'm going to get a focus focus bang. Yep, so that's going to put five on it. And then I'm going to play point of interest and put three on it. God damn. Your days of the horrible acting are over, CURTAINS. WHAT? NEVER! HE'S JUST ALWAYS LIKE A LITTLE ALWAYS HE'S LIKE A full like 12. It's like, god, dude, have you heard OF OVERACTING? NO! HE'S VERY CAMP. He's very camp. Uh and then so, as I place a minion in century bank, will you place a minion in century bank for me?

Cool. All right. Well, so that that was a Nope, it's century heist time. Uh oh, so I guess Oh, yeah, our cues and [ __ ] that we forgot all about the first time we played this game. Uh I know, right? So, basically, they're based off of the schemes. So, there is um when this is solved, there's a queue. When yours is solved, uh there's a queue. And then if we lose or win. Okay. Okay. So, that's pretty much it. Uh recording live. If Gabby Woods' token isn't play, uh she is not. Otherwise, the villain schemes. Scheming. So, because he's there, he will place an issue on that. All right, and now we draw a card.

Pretty good. Okay. Uh Hey, like Well, first, let's do villain stuff. Let's see what happens. All right. Craving an audience. Will you place a minion in here, the abandoned warehouse? Minions. Sweet. And then will you hand me a bystander? Bystander. Um cuz it's going to come down here. And then, craving an audience. If no bystanders are captured, Curtains captures the bystander nearest him. You dirty [ __ ] You have me with three. Huh? Like you like You know I'm right here. Right. Anyway, I'm just going to just going to Hey, go on, get out of here. Get out of here, Curtains. I know he yells a lot. ALL RIGHT. FEATS AND TRICKS. A PERIL ONE.

OOH. PERIL enters the villain's space, discard this card in the villain scheme. Yellow? Uh yes, it is a perilous peril. Okay. Activate. Uh discard one focus. If unable to, this peril moves three spaces towards the villain. Okay. So, it'll be bad in his next phase when he's right there. Right. Uh all right. Well, um you want to do some cool shenanigans cuz we have two shared Intels. We do. We do. could give me five, which means I can go into my focus mode and beat some ass. Oh, I guess. Take your shared Intel. Take my heart and clue We're a team. and the whole engine of my person. So, you have all the cards I give you.

You don't need any extra. You have all my cards. All right. So, I will spend five to go into my focus step. Yeah. Um Just raw stats. It is. It is. So, um I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to spend an action. I am going to solve Hmm. I'm going to take some damage this time around. It's not going to It's not going to feel good. I'm not going to do my ability because I don't want to flip this card yet. Okay. Um Damn. Uh Well, let's do Let's do this. So, I'm going to do Well, all right. Hold on. Let me Let me solve the blacks. I'm going to take four damage cuz the minion and uh and curtains are are beating me up.

They're They're whipping me something fierce. ANYWAY, SO HAHA. OKAY, so that is two successes. Thank god. That is exactly what I needed uh to solve the abandoned warehouse. So, that gets rid of a hidden Bum bum bum. I found your blueprints, CURTAINS. NO, CURTAINS. FOILED AGAIN. All right. Uh, I hear there's a lock needs picking around here. Um, you shove the informant to the ground weighing his words carefully. If Locksley was indeed hired for the heist, then that safe is as good as open. As if in response, police sirens wail outside. Nearby Nearby, the villain's police scanner picks up the radio chatter. "That Robin Hood guy is at it again. All units to Century Bank immediately and watch out for arrows."

Yeah. Okay. Did it. You got him. Yep. You gave him a wedgie with your grappling hook. It was great. Pretty much. Why do we have special Hm. So, it says this has special components. Um Like the difference between Gabby Woods, Lockley, and the Abductor, but it doesn't say anything about like them coming out. Maybe it's later. I don't know. Right. Guess we'll see. Oh, man. Anyway, so that was that was that and I will exhaust my focus thing to place one justice on any problem card, so I'll place one on your subway tunnel. Oh, nice. Um and then I'm going to play Exhibit A.

Choose a hero to discard two focus to gain one clue card. It's you. Hacked comms. Exhaust one enemy in a hero's threat area. Nice. I don't have any enemies. But, with that being the case, I think I will go ahead and do my second action cuz I have no threat and I will move. Um I think I'll just start whooping on some Did you free the thing with the guy? I didn't have enough. I only had I I I Yeah. I had exactly two and I had eight. I guess I theoretically could have put one, but um we'll be fine. One, two, three. Okay, that's my turn. Okay. I I built will now take my action. First, I will use heightened senses to just get a focus.

Sweet. All righty then. So, then I can do that. And then Okay, each time he schemes. Okay. So, then, I will do again my protecting innocent double move. Oh, you know what? I I just remembered. What do you remember? Whenever you Whenever you resolve a um I was sitting there and I was like, what the [ __ ] is wrong Like, whenever you resolve um a uh a scheme, you flip it. Oh. Uh when this card is flipped to this side, place Locksley on the map in the Century Bank scheme space. Oh, [ __ ] You got to throw down with the guy.

Uh Century Bank. So, with that being the case, 1 2 3. Um Ew. Okay, so this is gross. So, he has 10 health, one defense, and two inflict. Um Yeah, so then the villain schemes. So, then he puts an issue on here. Uh which if this card has at least three issue tokens on it, discard all tokens and flip it. Damn, it's open. He opened it. Locksley figured it out. Okay, open. When this card is flipped, place three issue tokens on it. These are uh gold bars that villain needs for nefarious purposes. Crisis, you must either move one issue token from this card to the villain or move one issue token from the villain card to the issue overview. So, that is now open. And then, so actually, after I did my second action, um if the vault is on its sealed side, place one issue token on it. It's not. Otherwise, move three towards the nearest hero and inflict.

So, he would go 1 2 3. Um Shoot, man. He was a judge. Right? Um Yeah, you can go ahead and go while I look up. I don't know if they have to be on my space to inflict. I'm going to run out. 1 2 3. See what I got now. I'm going to go this way. Say this guy, okay. And then we run back. You can do your double move. Yeah. Nice. Cuz it's free clues, baby. Each from common place where you want a common card. Well, hey, that'll be handy. Okay. I will activate my blind rage mode. Nice. Well, it's just there. It's a card, a mode I can take. I'm just going to just going to put that I'm just going to put that there. Okay. Now.

Blind just I'll solve Let's do I'm going to do my fancy solve. So, I get to do a bunch of moves, defeat a minion, so I'm going to defeat that guy. Okay. There, he's just gone. Nice. I just cracked him across the jaw. You don't know Yeah, you don't know your own strength, so you just cleaved like cleaved his head in two. OH OH MY GOSH. WHY is there a fight fight to the death? Ding ding ding

We're not deaf. I don't know why I'm making like a [ __ ] Helen Keller justice over here. Oh man. Okay. All right, so that's I did that. I moved, zipped out, saved a dude, punched Biff the guy, and now I'm I'm going to solve. I'm solving, so all right. So, I get my two. I may discard a focus to get a third. Oh, I got a I got a focus just for saving a dude. Let me grab that. Okay. And now I'm solving the problem. That's a verse. That is 1 2 3 4 What What am I at? So, I'm at 1 2 3 4 5 5 This is where I'm getting my ass beat over here. 5 6 7 8 Not that. So, that would be 8. I guess we'll I mean keep I'm going to get that focus.

Um and then I'm just going to spend this card to just finish this. It's the three justice on the card. Nice. All right, which removes the second train Stop the train. All right, so what does that say? It says, "When this card flips, place one issue token in the villain scheme space. Uh this is the train stop. A hero may only solve this problem while near the train stop. Uh activate if the villain is near the train stop. They scheme. Otherwise, move the train stop to the villain's Okay, sorry, sorry. So where's where's the issue getting placed? One issue token in the villain scheme space. In the villain scheme space.

Uh well Uh hm. Can I see it? Just so I can read exactly what you just read. This card flips, place one issue token in the villain scheme space. This is the train stop. A hero may only solve this problem while near the train stop. Uh okay. The villain's Do we read my thing? My my Oh, yes, I will. Um Yep, the villain's scheme space. Well, it's like is it for Well, let's read yours real quick. Uh yours was uh escape routes. Is that what it was? Uh Subway to Oh, yeah, escape routes. Okay. They're using the trains. The New Crown City subway system has become an absolute catastrophe. A series of unauthorized construction projects have blocked various routes, and the trains that are running are not stopping where they're supposed to. There's something going on deeper in the tunnels, but there's no way to find out while the trains are still running and stopping wherever they wish. While there's no pattern to when and where the train stop, there has to be a reason they are stopping where they are.

Hm. So, the villain's scheme space makes me think where he's currently at, maybe? Yeah, that's the only thing I can think of, but it also is like, well, could it be, you know, where that location was. So, if the villain's scheme space Oh, wait. Scheme pa- Oh, scheme spaces. Um are on the map is Yeah, so the villain's scheme space is nearby. Over there? Cool. So, I have to go there to solve the train stop. Yep. Okay. Otherwise, uh the activate will happen. Got you. Got you. So, let's see. Okay. I also did uh figure out that whenever they inflict, they inflict spaces that they're on and nearby.

Got you. So, was that both your actions? Uh yes. All right, well, run through your gained a focus. Stop. Okay. I forgot I had to fix that. Um And then, run through your activate. Activate. Train stop. Villains near the train stop, they scheme. Otherwise, move the train stop to his scheme space. So, he's scheming. Yep. So, if the vault is opened, he advances. So, he goes to the Century Bank. Okay. The National Security Bank is the heartbeat of the local economy, and it's no secret that the foreign dignitaries favor its dis- discretionary views on federal trade. All right. Uh current call will go off. I will spend the focus to stop that from moving at him, immediately getting it.

Okay, good, good, good. I was like, oh man, that's a pretty rough combo. All right, then we flip our action tokens, uh draw card, yeah, and exhaust, actually, and then See here. Crisis. A crisis occurs. And we only have the one, so Okay. you must either move one issue token from this card to the villain card or move one issue token from the villain card to the issue overview card. Well, I guess we have to do that. But now we can figure out where he's at cuz we both have finished our our thing. Okay. Villain card. [ __ ] Will you place the stage? Never mind, I got I got she's right there.

Lackey stagehand. You're on in five, MR. CURTAIN. WONDERFUL. DAMN IT, DEVIN. Like Like, comment, share, and subscribe. Craving an audience. Blue gets a minion. Oh no, another one. It's his brother. He places a bystander. Yep. Special, if no bystanders are captured, there is. Otherwise, Curtain gains a focus from the supply available. Yay. Boop. All right. Well, great. Great, great, great. Good good good good job.

Good job, Sean. Do I want to I am in my focus state, so I could beat his ass. You could. Mhm. Do I want to remove Locksley? Uh you know what? I think I I think that will be the first thing I do is I will try I attempt to fight. I will do hacked comms to give me an extra die. So, come on, four, baby. Get him. Four, burn him up. Okay. Well, that is going to give me a focus and that will be three damage on him. I'm good. One, two, three. He fights like a the streets. JUDGE. WHERE'S THE WATCHMAN? Blocking the arrows, catching.

I catch one, blows up in my face. Jesus. Okay. Do you have any way to give me a focus by any chance? Maybe. All right. if I did, I could use exhibit A to discard two focus to gain a clue card, which might help me. Okay, here's what I'll do. Um You'll have to. Okay, so it says, choose a hero to gain two focus, then you may discard one focus to either attack or solve. Me or you? It does say it says you, like it's saying me, but it's also saying I pick a hero to gain two focus. Okay. So would you say that I would throw that at you, let you attack her, essentially getting the effect? I think um I think you is like you as Belt.

Yeah. Uh well, if I'm going to discard to it's either attack or solve. Yeah, might as well put it in a position. Yeah, where I can do that. Yeah. Um sure, I suck at attacking. Yeah, if I'm not in the mood to do that. Yeah, I mean it's just one extra dice, but Unfortunately, we need to So we need to whoop up on his [ __ ] or go to the bank and start working on that. Yeah, you can go to the bank. Um You could run over here to try and So I'll do uh Cuz you have a double move, right? No, that's a card. I can I move four. Oh, okay. And then I may do a bunch of other [ __ ] Gotcha.

All right, 1 2 3 4. I can go up there and then I may do a bunch of [ __ ] Let's see here, my blind rage. do this just for why not. Um Um, place one justice on So Okay, here's what I can do. Here's what I can do. I can exhaust exhaust for focus and then I get to move two spaces, no action. Okay. And then just because I don't see here. We'll we'll hold on to that. And then I may do this action where I can move up to four spaces. One, two. Do I want to help you in the fight or you want me to go to the bank? Hmm. Helping in the fight is pretty good cuz I mean it seems to be get if we whoop him? Or do we just get him off our ass? We get him off our ass. He gets removed from the game cuz we we cut his head off and then uh one of us would get a clue card, but now he's no longer running around shooting us.

Cuz I have six damage on me and it's relatively hard to heal. Okay. Well, so I can do that. Well, I'm I'm this side. So let's see if I did this before I moved. I go into the attack mode. Is this right? Is he attacking back you know, they only attack back when we solve in their area? Yes. Okay. Actually, so I'm going to say I'm going to say that I changed modes. I still get a move forward, but now I get to attack instead. Oh, okay. Uh so I change modes. Do that to generate a focus. Nice. Uh so now I got to move the four spaces in the same time as of attacking. Oh, okay. So now I get the two, three. Uh I'm not solving, so and I may discard a focus to gain a fourth one. How much else? Sure. Let's get a [ __ ] fourth die in this [ __ ] Nice.

BEAT THEM UP. OKAY. LET'S SEE HERE. SO IT'S GOING to be four damage and a focus. It'll be three total cuz he has one one shield. Um And then so that was that. That was one action. So now I may choose a hero to gain two focus. Yay. And then I may discard a focus to attack or solve, which is what I will do. Nice. So then now I'm still I'm in a base two, and I can discard a focus to get another. I don't have any more focus. Um Ooh, perfect. Before you do your attack, I'm going to do exhibit A. I discard two focus to gain a clue card. Okay.

I guess I'll just do a BASE TWO ATTACK. ARROW proves you're a murderer. Um two damage or one damage, I guess. Okay. Um so that was free tax. So I have one action left. Yep, I could also attack, which I'm probably going to. So before he starts attacking, I'm going to do mind over body. Um when I get When I play this, I may gain a focus, nice, but it's it's it's an action to play this. Okay. And then now I have an action where I can gain a focus at the same time as attacking or solving. I see. Okay, so that's that's that. You got to do your threat stuff now. My threat? Oh good, I have a focus. So spending that, so that doesn't go off. Okay.

That sucks. Okay. Near the train stop, they scheme. Otherwise, move the train stop to his scheme. Oh, I see. So it's okay. moving with him. Stupid train. Okay. So my turn. Wasn't it Should have just followed the train to see if they All right, I'm going to beat Locksley's ass. Oh, it's a burst. [ __ ] burst again. That is It happened that one like couple times last time we played. It's just so intoxicating. City whenever it's JUST LIKE SOLVE, SOLVE. But that is still with that burst and that success, just enough to deal three damage to him. He had seven, so he has 10 health. So It's like he's like on a roof shooting at you, and you're just like like swinging place to place and [ __ ] I'm behind him. I start to attack I distract him and then he like starts getting the upper hand and then you come in with the [ __ ] Judge Dredd and NO, YOUR GAVEL.

YEAH, CRACK HIS HEAD OPEN. And you're like, "OH MY GOD, JUDGE, I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T kill people." No, see, he's sleeping. He's taking a breathless nap. No, you just hit him so hard he goes into the full decorticate. Just [ __ ] full head injury. He falls he falls off the building and then I grappling hook his leg and then I'm like, "Think I'll see he's not dead. The authorities will get him." Uh and then I'm going to He's seizing. Nah, he's fine. I didn't kill him. It's the brain injury. It's the yeah, the the the fall is what killed him. I'm going to play Time to Spare and heal three damage. With that sweet ass clue card. Okay, so that was both That was both of my actions, so the state changes going to go up. She's going to move four towards the nearest bystander. One, two, three.

[ __ ] And capture which probably go get those. And yeah, so that was that. Then we go to issue. Well, we will uh draw a card. Okay. Panic Guard, if the vault is on its sealed vault vault vault um is on its sealed side, place one issue token on it. Otherwise, the villain schemes. And he gets one, right? If no issue tokens are on the vault, the villain advances, otherwise move. Yep. So, we have to get there and start getting them back getting them out of there. Yeah, but now we we have to Well, we can scheme him now. Yeah. Which is good. Um Okay. So, yeah, so I guess I'm going to exhaust everything. Did you draw your card?

Yep. And then we will do awesome cards. Ooh, gross. This one's pretty gross. Okay, uh can I have two um um villains or minions? Okay, so we have one in there and one down here. And then Encore, Curtains gains one focus from the supply. Stop. I'm have to get over there. Okay, what's yours? Uh Denouement ploy. You must either move one focus from the supply to the villain card or he inflicts you. Well, Uh da da da Or you can have him inflict you. Which is what, three damage? I will do that actually cuz I now gain focus when I'm damaged. Three damage. Nice.

Okay. Oh, man. All right. Well, Hmm. Let me double check the exhausting cuz I sometimes exhausting means you can still do abilities on the card, but when a card is tilted, card that is How stacked are you right now? Cards in the hero's play area there are can be exhausted and typically Um hero cannot use an exhaust effect. Uh while it yep. Um for example, hero can't use an exhaust while an enemy is resolving.

When cards are exhausted, they retain their text, but they cannot be exhausted again. Oh, good deal. Okay, that that makes sense. So, I will exhaust to place a judge on any problem card. So, I could put it on Curtains and just remove a focus. You could, yes. I think I'll do that. Just do it. Weaken that. And then, how stacked am I? I mean, not Cuz like I could play a card that lets you move five. Uh you may move up four spaces and then I can let you move another five spaces and then you may either attack or solve. So, I could get you on the yellow and then you could do a thing if you wanted to without costing you actions.

Uh, this will cost me an action though. That would allow me to solve twice. Um, If you feel like you're really good at solving right now, I can do that for you. I essentially Shadow tactics. So, if you did that it would be both of my actions. I could do burden of proof that lets me solve and then gain a clue card and then my second action I could do my mega solve getting four dice, but then I would get more cuz of the clue card. So, I could solve That's going to cost you the five focus that cost you to activate that, right? Didn't it like end your focus state though? Uh, yes. I will have to flip back to that. But, ultimately could be good.

Yeah. I could get a bunch like a lot of stuff that we can get some gold back or how how do we put those back in the bank? It's when we attack him. We have to attack him. Oh, okay. Well, maybe I can do that. We can't attack him yet till he's out of scheming. Then how do we Yes. back? We have to flip him. So, until we So, we cannot attack him until he is exposed? Yes. Oh. So, he's just going to get those. Yes. Oh, that's a bummer. Okay. Yeah. I could just just like a flat just attacking him taking the action I could move them off of them. No, looks like he he has them. Um, but I could do a pretty mega mega scheme, but it's going to I mean, yeah. That's fine. Yeah, let's do it.

All right. Uh, [ __ ] shadow tactics. Instant hero. Move five spaces. Or you may move four spaces. I may move? Yes. Okay, 1 2 3 4. I discard a focus. And here within five spaces of me may either attack or solve. Oh, okay. All right. Well, I will solve. Damn, I'm going to get to I'm actually going to get three. Oh, nice. Awesome, cuz of that. He's going to like attack you each time, right? Yeah, I guess. So, that's nine damage. Ew. I'm still alive. It's annoying. Yeah, it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. It's just like, how am I sleuthing around trying to solve like reveal it, but he still beat it's like I can clearly see you. Mhm. I mean, he's not like an attack card, but it does have the attack value.

Yeah, it has the inflict on it. So, and he and he is an enemy, so Yeah. Um Okay. I mean, it's not the end of the world if uh Um Um Burst. Yep. Burst. Combo. Okay, so that's going to be 1 2 3 4. That's actually going to get rid of the focus on him, giving me two focus. Nice. So, suck a fat toad. Okay, I already took all the damage because I'm going to Right. Um be doing my thing. So, I will do burden of proof. Oof. So, I will solve. Um which will be three. Okay, so I will spend one focus to make it three.

Nice. Three on him. I mean, you get 20 on this [ __ ] And then I gain a clue. Oh, that's very nice. Uh so, then I will do my last action to solve. That's going to give me four dice. Then I'm going to play local assistance. So, what is it? Plus one to it? Yes. And targeting any problem card. Oh, got you. So, that's going to give me Yeah, six total dice. And of course only one burst. All right, so 1 2 3 4 5 We'll do 6 7. So, that puts 10 10 on him. Nice. So, Halfway there.

Yep, and then I will I flip back to my on the case. And then have to do hers cuz that uh move forward towards the nearest. So, 1 2 3 4. She's capturing them. All right. That was my turn. Okay. Someone actually left on you. I do. Uh let's see. Let's see. So, I can't really attack anything near me. No, you are right next to the train station though. Yeah. If you were able to solve go try and solve that. Okay. So, I can do one. Unfortunately, I'm not in that mood.

So, I'll do my heist and senses to gain focus. Let's see here. All right, let me discard one play this card gain focus. One more damage gain focus action gain focus then I may hit their attacker solve. Mhm, so I think I'll have to do I'm not in the mood to do my new combo move. Um solve. Oh, I see. Which is unfortunate. Oh wait, whenever we defeated Locksley I actually would have had a clue card. Oh, okay. about that. Did we both get one or just you? Uh I think it's the person who beats him. I have stuff I can do.

I can't really I think I'm just going to draw a card. Yeah. Yeah, we're both pretty low on cards. I've been holding on to this for for good reason. Yep, I think that's it. All right. Run run through the garden. The garden. Here, activate stuff. Ah, yes. All right, activate. He is near the train stop. He schemes. All right, that gets the last the last piece of gold. All right, and then that was going to go there and then it'll make him scheme. I don't want him to do that, so I spend my last one. Nice. Okay. Well, so now we unexhaust and draw card.

Okay. Uh then Century Heist. Lock's cunning. Ooh. If Lock's lead token is in play, he inflicts each hero. Oh, thank god, but otherwise the villain schemes. So, if there were no cheat tokens remain on the vault, the villain advances. No problem. Now he's over at the exclusive edition news. There's always a healthy dose of chaos on the streets of New Crown City and the news is always at work keeping the people informed. Unfortunately, this provides plenty of distractions for a well-planned crime. Mhm. Okay. Villain phase. Well, it's going to put a minion in the subway tunnels. Will you hand me a minion and a bystander?

It's a bystander. So, we go there and yep. awfully miniony over there. Yeah, I know. I got rid of the cards that helped me auto beat them to defend myself from being attacked. All right, let's see here. Minions going on the bank. Okay. Damn, we're down to two minions. Yeah. You start whooping ass. Oh yeah, it doesn't he move down there? Well, that's you. That's you. Yeah, that's me. Oh man, I got to move focus or he's going to inflict me. I could just take more damage to get focus. Um I guess I'll do that. Put you at half health. Yeah. Here's a five. But it gives me focus. Nice. There's a fiver if you want to just make it a make it six.

Cool. Oh man. All right. Okay. Hm? So, I could go down there and I can probably get a decent save or a decent solve.

Yeah, what happens if we're exhausted? I think they just uh Does he scheme? When hero's defeated hero discards all damage, flips their hero card, then a crisis occurs. Players solve each crisis at the end of the turn in which they were defeated. Defeated hero is placed in empty space near the hero's start space. Um

Yeah. Okay, so and what's the crisis that we have? Ah. Must either move one issue from this card to the villain card or move one issue token from the villain card to the issue overview card. So annoying. Yeah. All right, well, it's it's going to be pretty dicey, but I think I'm going to have to do it just so we can start attacking him. Yeah. Uh so as an action I am going to play Shackling Hook. When I play this, I may immediately move to any scheme token. Boom. And then um While I'm there, I will if I had my swift justice out then I would just I defeat a minion anytime I enter one.

Oh, nice. But I don't. So, now I will do on the case. I will solve. This will defeat me. Mhm. Cuz it's going to be three damage for whatever reason. Um yeah, that puts me at uh 15. And but uh I think I still get to finish on my turn and I will play wise counsel before hero rolls during a solve they gain plus one die so I'm gaining four dice. And then I will do trial of evidence to gain two more dice.

All right. Boston. Okay, so one, two, three, four, five, six. Uh seven. Fine. So, there is that and I will gain a focus and I am defeated. Crises. Which causes a crisis to occur. And that will put an issue on the issue issue overview. Mhm. So, which is gone now? Yep. You eat that gold. Yep. Okay. So, Mhm. What do I want to do? I don't know. You're our only hope. I'm our only hope. Oh, we won.

So, if I get over to him and I got solve on his ass. Yep, you would need three. Need just three. Just three and then he goes into ass kicking mode. Okay. So, I'll have to do that thing where I get to gain a focus which I will immediately spend that focus so I can change my mode so I can start solving again. Okay. Okay. And then so I can do blind rage and let's do So you have to gain the two. I just realized I had this [ __ ] drink here this whole time. Let's do let's just [ __ ] color So I have to [ __ ] God I need to focus for everything.

Uh Well you need to you're kind of blind. I get that's true. That's true. And then I may discard one two so it's an instant so I think I'm just have to skip on that. Spend the one two move the two spaces then I can move the four and then I can solve on him. So we'll have to do harness chi. I gain two focus. Whatever. And then I may spend one to attack or solve on the near me but now I can spend one to do my blind rage two move but for no action. Um and then I may do my standard action where I get to do a move. One two three four now I'm here I instantly beat a guy.

I was like someone's got to do it. Yeah I instantly beat a guy and I get to solve. Um so base two Let's see here I can spend my focus to get an extra dice. Let's see here am I solving there he'll deal the damage. So is it as soon as I start the solve action I take the damage or is it after it's resolved it takes the damage what's the time frame on that? I mean I did it I mean I was going to I did it after. Okay. Well who cares I'm going to discard this to not take the damage. That works. Come on baby. Give me some good [ __ ] A three, that's what we needed.

Yes, thank god. All right. So, you figured it Yes, you figured it out, didn't you? I always knew blind justice would foil me. So, curtains. Each time any amount of damage will be placed on this card, discard one focus from this card if able to reduce the amount of damage placed by two. But now, since you're the one who revealed him, he goes in front of you. Oh, no. He's got two more. now when we attack him, we can remove two from here, but we haven't we haven't solved that. Oh. So, we need to put uh we need to solve that, but I can That's what that is. Yep. All right. Yep. So, even gain one.

Oh, I actually got a focus for playing that. It just says when you play this card, you gain a focus. But you didn't you didn't play it. That's right. I used it as the feat. For my feat? Um let's see here. Oh, I didn't have an extra success to rescue the guy. No, you had just enough. Uh I just could just So, now I have one action left. I guess I can do that and solve again. Let's see. One, two, three. But you only need to solve. Where do I need to go? Where do we need to go? So, So, this says if no issue tokens remain on the vault, he advances. So, basically, He's just going to keep going. He's going to rush to the subway tunnels. This is basically like the same effect. But We don't have justice over here to move over.

Yep. And you would need to be here to solve the the bank. Okay. So, it's like I can run over there and try to I can draw a card. Is that the best bet right now? Probably, cuz then you'll have two cards for your next turn. Yeah. Drawing a card. Okay, well, run through your threat area. Okay, train moves to green. Okay. Um this gets to move three. Yep. Three? Oh, it's towards him, right? Yeah. Yeah. Uh and then him. Deal each hero within four spaces of the parallel token of a parallel token three damage. Do we think I don't not okay. Each hero that did not suffer damage from this effect uh moves one of their focus to this card. I have no focus.

I do have a focus. God, he's making me look at him. He's so campy. Let me. TAPE. JUST RUNS. ARE WE SURE THIS is even a villain? Like This is an eccentric actor. He just lived in New York City for two or New Crown City for too long. He's just piss poor. All right. Heist. Uh okay, the villain schemes. Scheme. Aw, [ __ ] He's going to skate. He's going to skate. He might. All right. Uh Do I rescue that guy now? No. Oh, that's a good card for me to get. All right. Did you draw your card? No. No, no, no, you're you're my card? No.

Okay, that's good. Okay, so we are putting a Will you hand me a minion? Minion. It's going to go here. Then a bystander. Will you hand me a bystander? Mhm. It's going to go there. And then if no bystanders are captured, Curtain Ca- Okay, well, they are. Um otherwise, he gains one focus. [ __ ] From the supply. Okay, showdown. It's a ploy. Okay, well, sorry. Uh this isn't his showdown. Uh green gets a buddy. Okay. Uh what does the globe mean? The flicks or schemes. Flicks or schemes? Yep. So, he schemes?

Yep. So, he moves an issue token from his thing to there. Geez. Okay. And then bystander is nowhere? Nope, so it gets captured. Oh. That's it? All right, good deal. Good deal, love it. Love it. All right, well it is our turn. Okay, what the [ __ ] do we want to do? Well, we got to get that off of him to slow him down. Yeah, basically his next scheme will cause So, So, I can teleport to him. I can Can you teleport to him or cuz I can also teleport Okay.

with my shackling hook. I have I I have the feet where I can go anywhere I want. Do you want to go to the Century Bank then and then go for the vault? That'll work cuz I am in the the solve mode. So, that's Okay. action efficient for me. Okay, so do that cuz then I can do a shackling hook. Okay. And I can get over to him. That works for me, sir. Um okay. So, let's do All right, so I have to spend success to rescue them if they are captured. Yes. Okay. I have to do Okay.

do do do Let's see. green Okay, two actions again. I think I'm just going So, okay, I DO SHADOW TACTICS. I'M HERE AND YOU have the beat one, right? No, that's that's just teleporting move. That's not my combo move. Oh, I see. Which I will now do. Um so, I gain a focus. Can you have some over Focus. And let's do Okay, so now I do my combo move solve business. Move over to four, then I may defeat of the two minions, WHICH I DO.

UH DEFEAT OF THE TWO MINIONS IN YOUR SCREEN PANEL, THEN I MAY discard a focus to solve in one action, which I will do. Nice. Uh unfortunately, it's only two dice. Um I was only hoping you get two successes. That would be pretty cool. It didn't happen, though. No. Yeah, one success. Cuz you don't have a focus to be able to Yeah. convert. But you do gain a focus. Yes. That was That was only one action, though. Yeah. I gain one focus. I like focus. This is brilliant, but I like this. Uh let's do Okay. So, all righty then. So, I will discard my focus to get another deuce.

And so, here that costs an action. So, I will I'll do that thing that I do when I uh solve big time. All right. Figure it out. You're like, "Hmm, I I'm not feeling any gold." Okay, I get another focus, and I get three successes. Sweet. Okay, so that gets us going for at least two full round or two attacks to put it back on. All right. That was all Shiro. Uh I think we lost. Did we? Yeah, cuz if you do both your actions and you do a threat which moves the train. Uh that would move the train and then what does his activate do?

It goes to the thing. Oh, so this just deals damage to us. Oh. If we're near these. Oh, okay. So, this is going to move where the train moves so it can maybe we didn't lose. He's in blue. 1 2 3 and you and then now he activates. I see. Okay. Um so, how much damage is that? That's going to be four damage if you're within three spaces. So, I can choose for that not to happen if you'd rather not take the damage. Yeah. Oh, yeah. So, then that just goes 1 2 3. Okay. Just my my purchase focus. Cool. All right. Never mind. I thought I thought he schemed for some reason. Um all right. Well, then. Well, the train's going to make him scheme more aggressively. Every time I take a turn, he'll scheme now. Oh, yeah. Until the train is gone. Until we get rid of that, yeah.

Um Okay. Well, I think as an action I'm going to play a second shackling hook and come in here. And then You whoop him? Um I'm going to do something so but what I can do

is I'm going to do my shackling hook exhaust. Choose an enemy within three spaces of you. You may place your figure adjacent to that enemy and deal that enemy one damage. Um and I could do that I could do that to him which would get rid of both the focus and then do just a regular attack. Yeah. Why is it so Oh. Okay. Yeah. Um Yeah, I'll do that. So, get rid of his two focus. Gone. And then I will attack. HA! TWO. He will take two damage like a [ __ ] Okay. And then I will spend two to place Does this go back?

Yep, goes back on him. I ate the vault. Yeah, I think that's what that says. he has to go back to the vault to get the money? No, I don't think so. Um No. Um because whenever he schemes it says move one issue token from the villain card to the issue over if unable to a crisis occurs. And a crisis here says you must either move one issue token from this card to the villain card. Oh, okay. So this is Yeah. Uh Okay. And yeah, and then she's going to move here and capture another person.

Yay. Yeah. All right. Well, that was that. We draw a card. Neat. We need that for anything. And then we have a heist. A desperate escape. If the villain uh If the villain is in the subway tunnels a crisis occurs. Oh, no. Well, Hey, you. All right. I think we I think he got away. The show must go on. Move one focus from the supply to the villain card for each lackey in play. Okay. Um The name is um the new month.

All right, it was either move one focus from the supply to the villain card or he inflicts you. Um I'll just take an inflicting so I get the focus. Okay, so another damage. Yeah, give me a third. Just one more. So you're at what? Nine damage? Uh let's see here. Five. I have just two damage. Huh? Yeah, I think the I think one of those is a five. Oh, [ __ ] I have way more damage than you. I think you have nine. Nine? Oh, [ __ ] Yeah, damn it.

Okay. Okay. Our turn. Yes. Hmm. Well, this card sucks. Actually, man, that is that is pretty rough. Um You're going to biff him to death. I'm going to have to um just so I can do something. Uh so I'm going to do that. I'm going to kill both of these guys. And Put your spare hand. Huh? You all know. Kill all the henchmen. Just spare the bad guy. I'm going to attack Eh.

OH, IT'S A BURST. YAY. All right. And I'll get a focus. So that'll be three damage. I forgot he has two defense. So One damage. Nope, that focus is gone. Oh. It's It's It's not happening. It's looking rough. Like Let me see cuz when I finish, did you So you dealt a damage to him? Are you able to move that? I did attack him, so I I will spend those two to put it back on. NO, IT'S MINE. NO. BAD. BAD CURTAINS. OKAY. WELL, what can I do?

Yeah, cuz I'm all about solving. Yeah, I am a mixed bag. So, I can go down there, we can start whooping on him. Yep. I mean, but he's eventually going to get away. Yeah, pretty much. it's like we're kind of in a stint where it's like I have to You basically have to stay there. Yeah. Add that, and then you keep biffing him. But essentially, he's removing it. Right, he's probably going to get a double um A double a double. Would you be able to put any on the train? But cuz that's going to accelerate anything he can do. Um Yeah. Yeah, cuz I it's next to it. Yeah, I can only do it when I'm next to it, right?

Yeah. So, yeah, you're in you're in the spot. Yeah. Um I could get four dice with the with this card. Mhm. I mean, I'll take four damage cuz he's there to to inflict, and that minion's there to inflict. But I could also potentially get a clue card by saving that bystander, which could help. Yeah. Uh if Yeah, if we want to use my second unless you want to If you can help me solve, then I can get a clue card to try and attack him with extra I mean,

I can give you two focus. Two focus? Yep. Um And then I may discard a focus to either attack or solve, which then I can use to solve, putting on the bank. So, we'll do that. Okay. So, here, take two. All right. I discard my and then I will solve. Okay. Ooh. Got a focus. Succeeded. I got two on there. All right. Okay. Yeah, do you want me to go ahead and go? Uh yeah, go for it. Yeah, all right. Just as maybe we can get rid of that train. Maybe I'll just get super duper lucky. Uh so, I will solve. That's going to be four damage. 1 2 3 4. Hey, stop. That's my train.

And 1 2 Yep. And it was a dog [ __ ] roll. How nice. How nice. Yeah, that's a Put it five. It needs three more. Right. Okay, now 1 2 3 4 5. If only I had a clue card. You know, I'm not even going to I'm going to spend one of those successes. I mean, I'll spend the two focus, I guess, to make it so I'll put I'll put three on it. And then I'll use the other one to get save this bystander. Uh which will give me a clue card. Okay. It's like I can I can't So I'll take a psychic generate.

Focus. That would be another 1 2 3 4. It's my psychic. 1 2 3. Secondly, 1 2. And then I I go over there. Solve. But then I'm not really solving worth a [ __ ] I do my double move, which takes an action. Get over there, but then I'm there. For no focus, I can then gain a focus and then solve, which actually sets me a little prettier for the initial solve. Okay, we'll do protect the innocent double move, where I move six spaces. Nice. I'm over here now. Oh, sweet.

Hey, what's up? I'M HERE TO SAVE YOU. I JUST IMAGINE CURTAIN is just like Where's the train? Like he's still holding the golden mean hammer. NO, NO, NO, YOU'RE MAKING ME MISS MY TRAIN. DON'T PULL ON MY HAIR. UM ALL RIGHT, I'm moving over there. That did cost me an action. And then I will use my mind over body where I gain a focus and then I may initiate a solve. Sweet. So, I'm going to do that and then I may spend a focus to gain another die towards my solving. Come on, three bursts, baby. I need one burst. I need one. Just one. One burst. Hey, there's one burst.

So, that's that's already three. We already got it, I think. And a focus for my trouble. What do we need? I Oh, I needed a You needed four. I needed four. I needed four, so four. Yay! No more train. Stop the train. sitting there like I'm going to blow up this train. Like did you have to do this? There's a lever right there, dude. You just have to show how masculine you are. Why is everything It's stopped it dramatically. everything so extra for you? And that gives you a clue card. Thank you. Christ, this is my first Well, second. Hey, I can move. Uh where does this go? I've just been putting them over here. Okay. Nice. All right. Uh yes, that was me. Good double move. All right, well then run through your thing. Uh curtain call. It's going to go towards him. One, two, three, four.

We're within four of him. And then does it move four or moves three? Three. Did I move four? Yeah. Okay. Then we're out of range. I was like, damn, that sucks. Okay. And then now anyone near it would take three damage. That didn't happen. So, that this moves. Yes. Then this goes then he bombs him. Nothing happens. Okay. Awesome. All right, well, let's draw a card. Okay. And then We're also running out of time here. Reporting live. Uh there's Gabby Woods is not here, otherwise the villain's schemes. Gabby Woods come in? Are we Are we missing any story beats? No. No, no, no. It's uh there's there's four scheme cards and so we we only have these two, so she's she's not in this one.

Oh, got you. We have the stop the train in Locksley. Okay. Uh okay. Villain. Well, there's apparel, so uh theater tricks. Stagehand. Ah, okay. So, she she'll go out in there. All right. I'll take those. All right, let's beat him up. Yes. Let's Oh, boy. I think we gave one hell of a wedgie. I let go of the gold. I just do the shotgun Just ready to beat your ass. Okay, he has no focus on him. This is actually I mean we ride or die on this one.

Yeah. Whoops. I didn't mean to put that over there. It goes Yeah, he didn't see he did from the reporting live. He did and it goes on to him, not onto the over That's when we will lose. Okay. Yep. So, all right, do you have any way of getting me a [ __ ] ton of focus for any weird reason? Um Cuz if I can get five to five focus, then that would give me a pretty going to get you five focus. Okay. All right, that's fine. That is fine. So, I think I'm going to hmm deal that enemy one damage. Deal. Deal.

If this is like most other games, dealing damage from effects bypass defense. Dealing. Okay. Um

Yeah, I think. Yeah. Okay, so I'll do my Shackling Hook and deal him two damage. There you go. Huh. All right. And we move this on over. Uh Oh, yeah. We We had the knives. Okay, I didn't even realize that we had two on there. Sweet. All right. So, question. I could attack twice. You could. I have a Burden of Proof card that lets It's an action. It It says I may solve then choose a hero to gain a clue card. So, my question is, do I use it just to gain the clue card for my and then only attack once and hopefully do a mega attack?

Well, more dice is always possibly more burst. Yeah. So, I'd say one mega attack's probably best. Okay. Then I will play Burden of Proof. Cuz it seems we the way the game's kind of designed is build up your dice pool and then go for a big one. Right. Well, that's actually perfect. Villain Sighting and Encouraging Lead. So, with that Lay down the heat. Yep, I will do an attack, so of six dice. Nice. Four. Six.

No, one burst. Okay. So, 1 2 3 4 5 6 6 damage. And then there's that which I will spend and I will flip to my other side. nice nice. Okay. So, I don't know why I 6 damage onto him. Okay. Oh, wait. Did I put my 10? 10 damage. 10? Yes. So, he is at half health. And then Looking rough. She is running over here. We've basically given up on the bystanders. Uh And him now. Stop him here.

1 2 3 Is that her? Is she moving or is the token moving? The token. Oh, you have a red token for your call. Okay. Yep. Okay. My turn? Yep. All right. Let's do So, we want to beat him up and I really suck at fighting sometimes. Okay, I will do my meditation. Cool. Okay. So, I change modes. I'm in eliminating the threat mode.

Okay. Is that really what it's called? Eliminating the threat? it does say mode, but it says eliminating the threat. Okay. And then I'll generate one uh to spend one three, let's make it four. Okay.

Okay. So, I may move up two and attack. Then I have to discard a focus to do it again. Okay. Uh Actually, no. That was all What was I doing? Okay. I don't know. Building up focus as well. did that. So, I didn't do anything to gain a focus. Okay. That's right. I was discarding this card to do a free attack. Oh, okay. That's what I was doing. So, I didn't even use an action there. Nice. Sounds good. Come on. Four bursts. That'd be really good. YES! NOT A SINGLE BURST. NOT A single burst and one damage. Yeah. And I get two focus. Yeah. One damage. That's okay though because now I will do my Uh let's do do do do do. Okay.

So, let's do I don't want to gain a focus. Let's do first let's do exhaust this. So, now I get to essentially attack twice for one action. Oh, nice. Um but I have to spend focus in between. So, I get to I get to do move four spaces then attack Okay. which I'm doing. So, unfortunately I'll spend the one to make it three dice. And double double burst. So, that puts me at four five. Three damage. I got I got some dice. You got some nice. Okay. And unfortunately, I didn't get focus but I can spend a focus to attack again. Nice. Um so, unfortunately, I don't have extra focus to put towards extra dice. Um Do you have any exhaust abilities that will give you a focus?

That's already been used. Oh, I see. I only have a one. Got you. Okay. Um no damage, two focus. And then I will use Mind Over Body to gain a focus and attack. Nice. MAN, JUST ONE AH! THE FOCUS, GAIN OTHER DICE. All right. There's three, baby. Um let's got to give me two focus. Oh, that's two damage. So, I can do two focus to deal two damage. Yeah. So, I will do that. That puts him at a five plus one. 16. 16. There. Beat him up. All right.

That was both of our Oh, well, then do your Oh, yes. Um ooh. That might be bad. This might eliminate me. is gone. Oh, I moved like Oh, my damn it. No, this is my damage right here. So, I might get eliminated. Oh, really? Cuz I cannot stop the curtain call without spending focus, which I spent all my focus. But it moves three. Right, but we're within We're going to be within uh four spaces. I'll take It's just three damage. 5 6 7. Oh, yeah. is enough to kill me. Oh, yeah, it's three damage. So, I will it will move and eliminate me. So. Oh, well then So, it's not to him, but by being within that range Got you. So, then he schemes, which will whenever you are defeated.

Got you. So, that will move you anywhere nearby and I don't think it said discard like all your played cards. Um No, it discards all damage, flip their hero card if it was unfocused, discard each of their focus, and then removes their hero figure from the board, then a crisis happens. Okay, which I just did. So, that is that. Uh and then the stage hand's going to move uh onto this one. Just gathering all these people. Drawn like absolute [ __ ] but um Oh. Yeah, and we do and we just lost.

Oh. Yep. Yep, Desperate Escape if the villain is in the subway tunnels crisis occurs. Ah, I mean he gets it. Yep. Yep, and that would put that onto the Century Heist and I think yeah, it says Uh, if there are ever three issue tokens on this card, the villain has escaped with the gold and the heroes lose. Ah, damn. He just got away. All right, what does this say? Um New Century Bank's vault cleaned out. Uh, in our big story tonight is a Century Bank heist that sent downtown New Crown City into complete chaos. While there were many theories on who was behind the robbery, no one knows who was actually pulling the strings. What we do know is that all the gold in the Century Bank vault has been taken and is now in the hands of a very dangerous individual.
