Awesome game session the other night! Our fearless heroes (Spectre, Doc Shocks and Monolith) went toe-to-toe with a many-limbed, napalm-spitting kaiju on a collision course with scenic Canvey Island!
As if that wasn't enough, the dastardly Leprechaun and his cohorts appeared on a rainbow and began messing up an already messed-up situation. Add to ( Read more... )

Great Hangout game tonight. Once again our supers (Spectre, Doc Shocks and Monolith) defended London against miscreants. This time it was a whole terraced house full of powered terrorists with a bomb lab in the basement. Of course everything went ka-bloey.
