SECRET WARS 1 - THE WAR BEGINS

[Andrew]

Seeing that Doom was making a quick getaway, Iron Man fired-up his boot jets and flew into a rapid pursuit! Letting Magneto get away without any trouble was one thing, but Doom had information that could benefit the heroes if they discovered where he obtained his now-destroyed ship. Rhodey was not entirely sure what capabilities Doom's own battlesuit possessed, but he doubted that it could match his flight speed given the damage it must have already sustained. Flying after Doom (and using his radar systems to keep track of any other imminent threats besides the not-so-good doctor), Iron Man once more readied his repulsors in case Doom tried to attack again.

"You're not getting away that easily, Doom! You're going to tell me where you found that ship, even if I have to chase you down across this entire crazy planet!"

(Iron Man will use his FLIGHT jets to chase after Doctor Doom at normal speed (9 areas per round) or faster if Doom is flying faster than that (max 30 areas per round), while also using his SENSORS for some early warning if there's anything else to worry about in the vicinity!)

[andyman]

Seeing Iron Man in pursuit, initially at 9 areas per round, Doctor Doom accelerates to his jet-pack's top speed of 10 areas per round. Then Rhodey's radar picks up bogies coming in fast! He now has to make a choice, whether to ignore the scanner and accelerate to above his normal 9 areas per round, or continue monitoring with his sensors while in flight. He also has to decide whether to keep following Doom, to now head toward what his sensors have detected, or to hurry back to the other heroes!

9 Areas away from Iron Man, the Human Torch can just make out something just cresting the ridge. (With Good Intuition, the Human Torch needed to get a 46 or better on his intuition roll, and that's exactly what he rolled!) It's the villains!

Wolverine's SENSES (needs a 21 or higher): rlgNBRFv1-100

Spider-Man's SPIDER-SENSE (needs a 26 or higher): 1-100

Wow! A 75 and another 100! In that case Spider-Man, Wolverine and the Human Torch point out to all the heroes present that the foe is 9 areas away!

The villains are lacking their greatest strength--Doom, Galactus, and Ultron, but still capable of dealing deadly damage with Enchantress, Molecule Man, the Lizard, the Wrecking Crew, and Absorbing Man. Their leader is Kang, seconded by Doctor Octopus.

Entering these Twisted Plains, it occurs to Magneto that this sector of the Battleplanet may be a collection of similar terrain from different worlds, as the terrain breaks abruptly in steep cliffs.
