OK, I can’t wait to hear about the Game 2c… but we’re here to talk about Set 3, so…
Game 3a - will go one of two ways…. Either everyone will stand-off of one another, collect their points and go home nicely, or it will be all out annihilation. Annihilation comes in one of two ways… either a gem comes out or someone missteps and shows their ass. The gem is possible, I don’t expect the other to happen. In the end it will likely be a very boring game.
Game 3b - I expect to be a brawl. The Teen Titans and the LoS are both without gems and the Avengers not only have one, but the entire team is wounded. I hope they buy medical gauze in bulk! I suspect one or both teams will make a run at the gem, it is a REALLY good opportunity to get it as the Avengers will be busy trying to heal up. In the end this game will likely be very messy. I may show up to this one!
Game 3c - I don’t know how the JSA will play, game 2c yielded a wounded Shazam! though to I expect the JSA will be keeping to themselves early on. The New Avengers have had a really shaky start, but their next upgrade (move Iron Man anyone?) might finally put them on more comfortable footing. The X-men are ever the target with what is arguably the most sought after gem. Of course, the New Avengers have a deep love for the X-Men I hear… In the end I suspect this game will be relatively slow unless the X-Men just really trip up somehow… and that isn’t likely so far, they’ve been playing very solid.
So the long winded commentary is over, what are my guesses? Well based of an elaborate algorithm using elements of Lighthill’s Heat Transfer Formula I’ve come up with… New Gem: Teen Titans (though they’ll trade it for a kilo of Cyborg’s best shit) Most XP: LoD (‘cause everyone will get 30) Least XP: Avengers (on the off change I’m right and the Avengers get geeked) Most VP: X-Men (He has scored highest so far) Least VP: Avengers (They have a lot of healing to do) Most Wounded: Avengers (see Least XP)

Leave with New Gem--New Mutants Most XP:New Mutants Least XP:Avengers Most VP:New Mutants Least XP:Avengers Most Wounded:Avengers
Sorry Mosby, but if other teams don't slap you around to get that Gem, then I would be very surprised.

I'm more interested in how the New Mutants will be leaving with ANOTHER gem...

Oh? Are you going to stop me? You said it yourself in a PM, if the gem comes out, the gloves come off... Of course last time this happened.... you know.... last league... game 3.... same players... just like my game 1 and game 2.... Don't think I haven't noticed My Lord and Master!!! *AHEM* Anyway, last time you backed me down pretty easy... I'm kind of a pussy... I think that's well established! ;D

And Here Are The Results!
Leave with new Gem: New Mutants, Teen Titans, X-Men Most XP: ALL Least XP:ALL Most VP: Legion of Superheroes Least VP: JSA Most Wounded: None
So how many did YOU get right?
Rick - 3 Ken - 3
So, there is a tie! That means both Ken and Rick (the ONLY TWO who responded for those keeoing track at home), each get an additional 9 VP bonus.
FYI - There will NOT be a thread for the Storyline game.
