Nightwind to help suffocate the flames
Matter-Eater Lad to eat through the walls and create escape routes
Blok to run through the fire and rescue trapped people

Another snag in the timestream - the Legionnaires must ensure that South Korea wins the Korean War, and prevent North Korea from existing as a separate communist state. Send six Legionnaires to make that happen.

I love that we're all using many lesser-known Legionnaires! Versus the Manhunters - Computo and Gear use their powers to try to mess with the CPUs. Rond Vidar and Celeste Rockfish use their Green Lantern energy to destroy Manhunters, but more importantly to act as a lure and gather them in one place, while Kinetix tears into their systems with her telekinesis, and Quislet inhabits their matter and destroys them. Laurel Kent goes along as a human-Kryptonian shield, and to show them that their kidnapping plot against her* won't work! *yes, I am retconning her out as a Manhunter EMERGENCY!!! About 2000 years in the Legion's past, a powerful, magical kingdom on Aleph was attacked by Zerox and subjugated. The Legion can't stop this from happening, but they must retrieve a powerful magical artifact - the Sun Sceptre. Send 4 Legionnaires to go and get it without affecting the outcome of the battle.

Dragonmage and Mysa to protect against the magical threats and safely secure the artifact.
Ferro Lad, as his iron body has shown (at least in some universes!) to be unaffected by magic.
Invisible Kid, to keep these players more used to open combat thinking and working more covertly.
EMERGENCY!
It seems some time-hopping villains seek to take advantage of the chaos in the timestream caused by the Legion's ongoing battle against the Infinite Man. Per Degaton in massing a cross-time army in the 22nd Century. Gary Concord, aka Ultra-Man, is already working with Lance Lewis the Space Detective and Rick Star, Space Ranger to try and defeat this threat, but they'll need back-up! Since the entire Legion is scattered across time, their allies stand ready to help! Choose 8 heroes from the 30th Century-be they Workforcers, Uncanny Amazers, Heroes of Lallor, or independent heroes associated with the Legion-to help the heroes of the 22nd Century take back their time and defeat Per Degaton's army!

While all this is going on, the Infinite Man is about to break loose again! But the Legion is overstretched. They decide to gather reinforcements from great 20th and 21st century heroes!
First stop, the JLA. Send 10 JLA members to the 30th century to help stall the Infinite Man.

Flash (Wally West) for speed and time travel
Zauriel for his Heavenly powers

Bloodwynd is a necromancer, who can speak to the dead and draws power from death energy to found out about what they saw in the past.

Shrinking Violet leads the team. Veilmist is a better teleporter than Questor. Polar Boy puts the freeze on Sun Emperor. Kinetix makes sure Silver Slasher cannot lay a hand on anyone. Chameleon evades Grimbor's traps. Gear's role is to take control of all the machinery. EMERGENCY!!! The Infinite Man has sent a team of villains (Emerald Empress, Zymyr, Reboot-era Mantis Morlo, Quicksand, Twine and Magno-Boy) to kidnap the population of Vyrga, so he can have an army of teleporters. Send 3 Legionnaires and 3 Teen Titans to save Vyrga.

Raven teleports our team in and takes care of the pesky Emerald Eye by transporting it through her soul self. It's a Kid Flash & XS team up to shatter Zymyr's bubble with speed vibrations and to walk across Quicksand changing the landscape around them, to deliver a knock out punch. Blok punches out Magno Lad, who throws everything at the Legionnaire to no avail. Projectra takes out Morlo by creating a giant fake earth to blow up, that even a post boot version can't resist. Hornblower uses sonics to defeat Twin from a range beyond her energy whips.
Emergency! An important election has been rigged due to Khundian interference. Pick 5 Legionnaires best placed to uncover the espionage and to calm worried voters!

Chameleon is a great detective and can infiltrate the Khunds. Veilmist has Khundian connections and can teleport in to spy. Sneaky Invisible Kid can put two and two together. Tellus can detect nasty, evil thoughts. Apparition can phase through to collect evidence, and has the political savvy to help figure out the truth. EMERGENCY!!! Talok VIII has been cut off from all outside contact. A shadow has enveloped the whole planet. Send 5 Legionnaires to investigate.

Mon-El races the team to Talok, where they face hordes of shadow creatures that have possessed the Talokians Tellus locates the source of the trouble with his telepathy, and keeps the team safe from shadows with his telekinesis. Both Tellus and Colossal Boy help with the clear up, but were brought anticipating the Persuader or Lady Memory. But the villain is none of those. It's the Shade, trapped there after an adventure with Jack Knight 1000 years previously. Grev has been incapacitated, but Lady Memory links with Tellus to distract the Shade as Shadow Lass fights him for her world. As the duel continues in the Cave of Shadows, Glorith manages to bring forward others from the darkness. As Shady forces The Shade back, they pull the villain back into the darkness. As Glorith seals the source of the creatures, one figure remains in the dark. Eve Eden, Nightshade joins the Legion. But is she friend... or foe?
Emergency!
The Dominators have set the power spheres around Earth to explode. This, in turn, will trigger environmental collapse as they detonate stores of waste within the planet. Fortunately, Five brave Legionnaires are on hand to save the planet. But which five?

NIghtshade travels through the shadows to reach the power spheres fast! Chemical King makes the detonation mechanisms decay. Shrinking Violet goes microscopic to defuse the spheres. Kinetix prepares shields in case they cannot defuse the spheres in time... ... but Computo does her best to make sure they can. EMERGENCY!! Massive hurricanes are threatening Winath. Send 5 Legionnaires to figure out what is wrong with the weather.

I like how you kept Nightshade in the team. Harmonia leads the field (tee hee) team, but it's Ayla who has all the local knowledge. Both combine their powers to calm the Winathian skies. But that's only part of the problem. There's crop devastation. Fortunately Chlorophyll Kid is on hand to help restore things to the way they were advising Chemical Kid as he works. Element Lad has given the pair help, to provide nutrients for the soil across the planet, and he then goes to help Ayla and Harmonia as new storms threaten key installations across the planet. The villain is Storm Boy. His further surgery has unbalanced his mind even more, and his hatred of the Legion has grown since he fled the dismantling of the Justice League of Earth. Winath was the first step in his plan to destabilise the worlds of the three founders. From here he was going to attack refugees from Titan and promote further Imskian aggression against Braal. He's outmatched by Harmonia and Ayla, but the pair manage to convince him to put things right by linking his biomechanical parts to the Winathian weather control systems to promote prosperity across the world. His tenure with the Legion was all too brief, and all he wanted to do was belong to something good. Now he has been given his wish. Emergency! Brainiac Five has realised that the Monitor's tuning forks from Crisis on Infinite Earths are not aligned properly. He send five Legionniares back to fix them! Pick five Legionnaires, with one going to each of the following eras! World War II in Markovia Wild West King Arthur's time in Camelot The Great Disaster of Kamandi's time where animals rule. Ancient Atlantis

I like how you kept Nightshade in the team. You had a great idea, and I wanted to run with it I see what you did with the settings World War II in Markovia - Geo-force and Dr. Polaris are pleased to see help in the form of Sun Boy, who is not bothered at all by the cold and snow Wild West - bullets and collapsing mines prove to be little trouble for Magno, who proves himself an asset to John Stewart, Cyborg, Firebrand, Jonah Hex, Scalphunter, Bat Lash and Johnny Thunder King Arthur's time in Camelot - Nightwind goes to help Firestorm, Killer Frost and Shining Knight with her future knowledge, adding the element of wind to those of fire and ice. The Great Disaster of Kamandi's time where animals rule - Chameleon is able to blend in with his shapeshifting. Dawnstar is happy to see a teammate, and Superman appreciates the extra help. Kamandi is comforted by Cham's shapeshifting Ancient Atlantis - Arion and Obsidian are joined by Dragonmage, who joins his magic to Arion's EMERGENCY!!!! Legion HQ is being attacked by... an army of Protys? Pick 4 Legionnaires to stop the invasion!

Some good picks there in a setting I know you know well.
Following the abduction and replacement of Salu Digby by a Durlan, Chameleon Boy makes a point to review the behaviour patterns of his colleagues. With Brainy not being the most stable personality, Reep has found a confidante in Danielle Foccart, and the review uses her powers over the Legion monitoring systems.
Officer Erin is the infiltrator they discover first. She had almost been caught before, but had used profem abuse as an excuse to evade capture. But Chameleon Boy knew something was amiss and had been monitoring her ever since. Element Lad had also been compromised, changes to his disturbingly calm personality had been difficult to detect. Now there was a war within the Legion, as our heroes had to stop the spread of the Proteans and their plan to take over the United Planets at the behest of their new mistress, Glorith. Being protean themselves, Lightning Lad and Proty II were able to discover Glorith's plans. But it was James Cullen, the Protean Soul of Antares, who not only managed to break Glorith's influence over the Proteans, but tapped into temporal stasis powers to bring the conflict to the female Time Trapper.
Emergency! Lex Luthor has returned to the 30th century. He's then used a time bubble to prevent the explosion of Krypton. However, instead of preventing the arrival of Superman, he's unleashed a whole race of xenophobic Kryptonians over the galaxy. Pick 5 Legionnaires to travel back in time in a desperate mission to ensure that Krypton explodes!

glad you're liking my team, thoth. I also love yours. We better be careful to copyright our brilliant ideas. This mission calls for team members who can do what is necessary with determination and minimal angst during the mission... Saturn Girl has always been dutiful, and can use her telepathy to great effect Sensor conceals the team, allowing them to work safely Brainiac 5 doesn't like doing this to Supergirl's world, but convinces himself it is logical Gear is able to work with Krypton's technology Chemical King kickstarts the original reactions that led to Krypton's destruction EMERGENCY!!!! The War of Light comes to the 31st century! The Corps deputize one Legionnaire each to stop the original Lantern from taking over the universe. Pick one Legionnaire each to temporarily join: The Red Lanterns The Orange Lanterns The Sinestro Corps the Green Lanterns the Blue Lanterns the Indigo Tribe the Star Sapphires

This is one of my favorite threads, and I'm sad it died...
EMERGENCY!!!!
The War of Light comes to the 31st century!
The Corps deputize one Legionnaire each to stop the original Lantern from taking over the universe. Pick one Legionnaire each to temporarily join:
The Red Lanterns- Timber Wolf The Orange Lanterns - Brainiac 5 (greed for knowledge) The Sinestro Corps - Sensor Girl and her illusion-casting are capable of great fear the Green Lanterns - Dream Girl was kidnapped by Universo for a reason... (and I want to avoid overused Saturn Girl) the Blue Lanterns - Ultra Boy (I remember his line in Legion Lost v1 - he was the one with the greatest belief that they would eventually get home) the Indigo Tribe - Kinetix (and her wanting to help others) the Star Sapphires - I'll go with a surprising one - Leviathan, one of the Legionnaires who sacrificed himself in the line of duty
EMERGENCY!!!!
Colu is starting a war with Robotica and Linsnar (Gear's homeworld).
Pick two Legionnaires to visit each world and try to stop war from breaking out.
