OOC Green Arrows Action Value Total (AVT) 44 vs Cheshire uses 2D Acrobatics to avoid... Dex 8 + Range 1 + 2D Acro + Roll(4d12)+0: 5,7,2,9,+0 Total:16 (25) +6 EV (to 9) vs RV5=4 RAPs. Cheshire is on Body 1/5 and HP15
With a grunt as the arrow slams home in her shoulder Cheshire bats it off with her staves and delivers a flying kick towards Green Arrow!
OOC GA technically used his free action to draw an arrow but has time next round before the terminally wounded car can limp its way up to the gate - and the discarded car already blocking it.
Cheshire moves to GA then attacks with 2D M Arts AV8 + Roll(4d12)+0: 5,4,2,10,+0 Total:15 (23) vs Green Arrow (edit to cover reading the dice roll result) Dex 9 + PMNlQ19D1-121-12 (Green Arrow has no dice from Acrobatics as you used five extra dice from Weaponry) Total: 9 (18) +3 EV (to 7 Str) vs RV5=2 Damage.
That would put GA on Body 3/5 and he has 12HP remaining. You can absorb that damage for 3HP (putting GA on Body 5/5 and HP9) or take the hit.
Cheshire snarls "You Americans and your 'funny lines'. I will wipe that smile from your face!"
Green Arrow is aware that she did not use her claws and she may have used the poison on those claws on him the last time without time to dose up the claws again - possibly with something more virulent!
OOC by the way if you wanted to buy an extra die there using HP you could do for defence for 6HP and roll it. It may make a difference or be a waste of points. It's the nature of PbP that some mechanics have to be retro performed.
Initiative...
Roll(2d12)+0: 9GA,7 Cheshire
GA acts first...

OOC: I guess I'll take the damage for now and save the HP for absorbing damage later? Is there any advantage to using HP first? Is there any disadvantage to having a lower current Body?
Green Arrow believes he's got to take Cheshire down before she can scratch him with those claws of hers. So he puts everything into striking her with a knockout punch!
Dice Action - Martial Arts 8 Dm3X4q6s6d12
Free Action - Secure the gate, if not already done.
Move Action - Run east toward the blue star.6d12

19 is not my greatest roll. Hopefully 28 will be enough. (9 DEX)

OOC In DC Heroes you don't get tired or have any resources beside HP to manage so the only reason to absorb damage at any stage is in case you get clobbered later and can only absorb the same as your body (5 points) maximum for last ditch defence. So absorbing it now is a kind of insurance against getting clobbered by 8 points of damage later, say, and only able to absorb 5 (maximum of last ditch defence for Green Arrows 5 Body) and having to take the 3 which knocks him out. Cheshire is on 1 Body and keeping the 15HP for a) extra dice and b) last ditch defence and hoping to outlast GA.
GA AVT 28 vs OV8 + 3D Acrobatics (2D left for M Arts) Roll(5d12)+0: 5,2,5,3,6,+0 Total:10 DOUBLE plus Roll(2d12)+0: 3,11,+0 Total:24 (32) Attack Missed!
Cheshire nimbly ducks underneath Green Arrows blow and is about to come out with a 'catty' comment when he drags the gate shut and sprints off towards the police (Blue star)
Knowing she could be hot on his heels GA doesn't let up as he runs past burning cars and glances over his shoulder to see... she's not followed him.
OOC Talking to the cops might take more than 4 seconds so there may be a few rounds depending on what you say to them...
Green Arrow sees a pair of cops checking the carnage of the street out and one on the radio when the other sees Green Arrow and shouts "You there! GET DOWN! GET DOWN ON THE FLOOR! NOW!" whilst pointing her gun at Green Arrow!
OOC GA is about at AI23 on the map...

GREEN ARROW HP9The Police shout "Hey! Freeze! Stop!" and rush to the car...OOC Shouldn't be too hard. Cop Perception (Int 2/Will 2) + Roll(2d12)+0: 8,2,+0 Total:10 (12) vs OVT 27 Failed!"He went round the other side! Go, GO!" screamed one of the cops... The other cop moved around the car and... nothing. The pair stood, looking in the smoke and around the street as Green Arrow slipped away behind them. moving from car to car. ========== He jogged round the corner of the wall surrounding the large house and looked about.Cameron would definitely be on his way, Terminator was somewhere inside the grounds and Diggle? "Yo!" he heard a shout and looked around. Amongst the line of parked cars on this street he saw a man rise from behind a car. Dressed in leather/kevlar and with a helmet that obscured his features the guy calls out "What do you think? Got here as quick as I could. Looks like a warzone!"

"There's an international terrorist and drug supplier behind Nathan's company and the Feds were working with him to gather evidence on this big fish. I disabled his getaway car, but he still may find a way to escape. Care to help prevent that from happening, Mr. Diggle or should I call you... Spartan?"

Diggle grins then nods. "Stopping a terrorist from escaping sounds right up my street. I need a quick sitrep."
Green Arrow explains about Cheshire, Hashim Rabiid and his two bodyguards and mentions Terminator.
Diggle/Spartan frowns. "Supers? Might be outta my pay grade man. I'll do what I can though. Leather armour and a glock ain't no substitute for a minigun when a guy is laughing at your pistol and needs a beatdown." He shrugs and checks ammo.
"Where do you want me?" He looked at the house and the wall around it. "This... Cheshire won't have no problem getting over that wall and I figure the cops will go in at the front gate and wait for backup. The bad guys *might* decide to leave that way anyway but my bet is they dump that car you disabled and sneak over the wall. I'll keep an eye on the house from this side of the surrounding wall and street, you wanna go in there and flush em out? Or you need backup? We both go in?"

"Cheshire's claws are laced with some kinda poison. Let's stick together so we can watch eachother's backs. Also, the authorities may not see us as entirely friendly, despite my history with the Justice League. They don't even know you, and may not hesitate to consider you a bad guy. Now, before we blindly go in. Is there any chance you have a way to reach Felicity? Maybe she can hack the ground's security cameras and let us know exactly where the enemy is."

Spartan grimaced. "Walkie talkies don't have that kind of reach. Payphone is the best bet." he said.
"As for the cameras I expect we'd have to splice into them manually. Felicity is a bona fide genius but even she can't perform miracles." he added.
"Problem is more and more cops will turn up and it sounds like this Cheshire is one to take advantage of the chaos. We ain't got long, that's for sure." He looked up at the wall. "Easy enough to get over, especially if this guy has a bunch of people with him. He might already be on his way even as we speak... Where do we go?"
OOC Not shown on the map but the heroes on on the right hand side of the building/surrounding wall hiding amongst parked cars. The cops are at the front of the building and waiting for backup. Cheshire and her entourage could in theory climb the back or left wall without being seen and make good their escape...

"Okay, let's go in...together." Green Arrow then jumps the wall and runs across the lawn searching for the bad guys.
Using skill points for defense.

Spartan followed Green Arrow over the wall and into the gardens of the large house.Looking about they saw the smoke from the street at the front. Distant sirens were getting louder and this place would be crawling with cops soon. What would they find? OOC You have the house, the garage or the grounds to check out. The main gates are blocked with the beaten up cars that won't be going anywhere soon. You can't see movement or anyone in the open but that doesn't mean they aren't there - for instance on the blind side of the house.
Here's a quickly modified badly drawn map...GA/Spartan come in at the X.

Green Arrow asks Diggle to follow him and provide cover, as he moves toward the vehicles and looks for signs of where Rabiid went.
