Weekly One-Shot #34: Freedom isn't Free

F6 Bunker, F6 Wraith, F6 Absolute Zero, and F6 Tachyon vs. Mad Bomber Blade in Insula Primalis.   An expansion free one-shot for hopefully a lot of newcomers with the phone release.  

Good luck. 

Mint.  I got lucky enough to Hypersonic Assault the Baron on the turn before he played Devious Disruption.  Without his nuke he went down easy.

Mint but close. Bunker 1 HP, everyone else 5 HP.

Mint.

Man, Baron Blade got a godly reshuffle on his flip in my game.  He got early Hasten Doom and "Consider the Price of Victory!" plays in, meaning he was about to start hitting me for 8 damage per turn.  My recently technologically inferior heroes wouldn't have lasted long, but thankfully, neither did the Baron.

Same. Having each hero always pick the most-damaging play* tends to make Mad Bomber go down quickly; dodging the Disruption was just icing on the cake. Won during the start phase of AZ's 5th turn with all heroes' HP in the mid-to-high teens.

*Except in one case where skipping Tachyon's last play led to the T-Rex biting Blade for 6.

Comfortable Mint, with everyone at 18 or 19 here. Hypersonic Assault took care of the Disruption for me, as well, and aside from a couple of T-Rex bites, the environment offered no trouble at all.

Near Mint, and the only thing I really did differently the second time was leave Obsidian Field in play. (Well, and minimal building before the first Disruption...)

Mint.

EDIT: I misread her incap pwoer. My attempt below was wrong to begin with. 

The devious disruption hit me. Not sure how y'all avoided it. In the end Absolute Zero remained.

It was close.

I tried using Wraith's incap ability to force an ongoing for Blade, but it said there were none, but I checked and saw he had a Living Forcefield in his trash.

I'll log a bug for that. 

I don't think F6 Wraith's incap power works that way.   I think you can put Ongoings in play on top but not ones in the trash. 

Mint.

I Hypersonic-ed before the Disruption, too. It was a matter of playing Nimble Strikes to draw it, and Lightning Reflexes to play it. Or something like that.

Stun Bolt was nice--sure kept the damage down.

Most heroes around 20 HP, Absolute Zero was closer to 10 because of Frost-Bound Drain self-damage.

Yup. I reread it again 9the 4th time) and now I feel silly.

Thanks!

Minted this, with everyone in the high teens except Zero, who was at around 10 after blowing up the cryo chamber and taking a double-blast from the river of lava. DIdn't really do anything all that fancy.
