I know there was a version of this game before, but I didn't want to look for it.
Here is the setup:
You are on monitor duty. An "emergency" call comes in and you have to assign 5 Legionnaires to answer the call. Whom do you send and what is your reasoning? (you can mix eras if you want. Such as sending XS with Tellus)
Ex: You have to send a Legionnaire to infiltrate a circus. Timber Wolf is sent in as an acrobat.
Then you provide another "emergency" for the next poster to send Legionnaires to.
Not a hard & fast rule, but try not to use any of the Legionnaires used in the previous post.
So to start off the thread:
Emergency! Calling the Legion of Superheroes! Validus is on a rampage and is destroying the Space Orphanage! Send help!
Posted by Queen Connie on :
Mrooww! Meerroeoowww!
**Of course, you would send in the Legion of Super Pets! Comet, Beppo, Krypto, and Streaky can handle Validus while Proty protects and keeps the orphans entertained.
NEXT: There are rumblings from Zerox that Mordru may revive once more. Send a team to Zerox to look into these rumors. Posted by Kid Prime on :
White Witch, for obvious reasons Element Lad, to help trap him in the ground (maybe transmute the air around him?) Star Boy, same premise Princess Projectra (her illusions have confused him before) Mon-El, just to have a Daxamite handy for the heavy lifting
New scenario: It's 4 AM at the Legion Clubhouse, and Tenzil is SLEEP-EATING his way through the walls of Brainy's lab! Quick, pick a team to stop him before he hurts himself!
Posted by disaster boy on :
cosmic boy, to move things out of the way dream girl, to slap him awake xs, to speed things out of the way brianiac 5, its his place gates, to teleport him to bismoll if necessary
EMERGENCY: the fatal five (sw6 version: emerald empress, persuader, mordecai, mano, tharok) are breaking into labyrinth in order to free the legion of super villains. who do you send to stop them?

Posted by RTVU2 on :
Saturn Girl -to get throught to the Empress.
Ferro- he can take on Persuder
Gosammer - can tame Mordecai
Triad - six hands are better then one against Mano
Computo- infiltrate Tharok.
Emergency: The Infinte Man sees a coming Crisis. Pick 5 Legionnaries from any era to help him avert this CRISIS!
Posted by Kid Prime on :
Well, Dream Girl, duh I'm gonna say XS since she might be able to break into the timestream. Jazmin, for the same reasons, and (sigh) she can even lead the team, if she must. Supergirl, for the heavy lifting and because it's a crisis and all. And actually, oddly enough, my gut says Superboy as well, same reason. May be redundant, but let's go with the gut!
Emergency! Emergency! Emergency! Gates quits the team in a huffy pout! Send 5 legionnaires to cheer him up and bring him back to the team!
Posted by Tamper Lad on :
Brainy - ever the unwitting tool of the millitary industrial complex for Gates to mock Chameleon - Fellow Alien in arms Cosmic Boy - Leader Pep-talk Karate Kid - pseudo-intellectual comparative phillosophy bore off. Saturn Girl - All else fails, she assumes the name of Bug Puppetteer lass
Emergency! Emergency! Saturn Girl has lost it (again) and this time she's taken control of all the boy legionnaires for heaven knows what hussy depravity. Send 5 Legionnaires from the roster of girls (any era) to get her to release the boys.

Kid Quantum II - let's see how well Imra's telepathy works when she's stuck in a quantum field Triad - Imra can only take control of so many minds at once, and Triad can provide some distraction XS - like Triad, XS is there to provide a distraction Dreamer - to keep the team one step ahead of Imra Kinetix - to help hold off the boys

Emergency! The Legion is needed to evacuate the planet Hynap in the Kwai Galaxy. Apparently, the Credo are back and about to invade! Send 5 Legionnaires to help evacuate and 5 to stall the Credo army.
Posted by Kid Prime on :
Evacuation Team (preboot):
Saturn Girl, to help with crowd control. Colossal Boy, same reason. White Witch, cause maybe she can cast a mass-teleportation spell or a spell of protection or something. Mon-El, to fight any Credo that slip through. Shadow Lass, because she goes with Mon-El everywhere he goes.
And to fight the Credo (postboot):
Jarth, since it's the Credo and all. Jazmin Wildfire, to kick ass Conner aaand... Star Boy.
Emergency! Emergency! Emergency! Dream Girl has gotten FAT!!! (Just like in the last days of the preboot.) Pick 5 legionnaires to get her on a diet and exercise program, and to help her with encouragement and positive reinforcement!

[ September 03, 2005, 01:21 PM: Message edited by: l.e.g.i.o.n.JOHN ]
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
Versus the Blight:
M'Onel - since his powers can't be blighted, he'd be a great asset
Saturn Girl - she was instrumental in the Blight's defeat last time
Apparition - another Legionnaire who can keep herself from being blighted
Chameleon - in case we need someone to infiltrate the blight. Plus, he probably has the most experience against them.
Cosmic Boy - another Legionnaire who has lots of experience, and he can get along with almost anyone. He'd make sure that the Legion works well with the guys from the AP.
extra: Shvaughn Erin - she has tons of experience with the Blight too, has lots of battle experience in general and would make a great coordinator/commander
Emergency! Grimbor and Charma have captured the entire Legion! Pick six Legion allies to step in and save the day! (hope you don't mind my tweaking the rules a bit, Quis)

It's two weeks before the UP Presidential election and it looks like Lester Spiffany will be elected president over RJ Brande. HELP. Send 5 legionnaires to interfere with the democratic process.
Posted by Quislet, Esq. on :
Deciding to engage in campaigning rather than any covert and illegal interference with the democratic process:
Dream Girl - because she can foresee the problems caused by the Spiffany Administration
Mon-El - As the "descendant" of the great hero Valor, he has considerable sway with people of the seeded worlds
Princess Projectra - for massive illusions showing how RJ Brande will help the UP
Apparition - for her political skills from helping her mother campaign
Triad - for her administrative skills
Emergency! Calling the Legion of Superheroes! The Time Institute calling!
One of our students left his omnicom behind on a field trip to Woodstock. When he went back, he couldn't find it. It was crammed full of information about the past which to the people of 1969 will be the future. If anyone accesses that information, it will have dire consequences for the present. We have determined that the omnicom does need to be lost, so we can't just go back and prevent it from being lost. But it does need to be recovered.
Posted by Invisible Brainiac on :
Like, yeah, man! It's back to the past!
BRAINIAC 5 - he'd know a lot about the past, and his presence on the mission will make it run a lot smoother
DAWNSTAR - and how else are we going find the Omnicom?
SENSOR GIRL - why, to make sure we blend in, of course!
KINETIX - it doesn't matter if the Omnicom's buried under tons of trash or is locked up in a safe. Zoe's telekinesis will make sure the Legion gets to it.
