I'd chalk it up to SFX and call it good. It happens at the speed of plot.

How large of a batter are we looking at? Ogre? Hill Giant? Storm Giant? Titan?

For those that read Business Unfinished, what "sex" did you read Mentor as?

Vaudeville? Burlesque?

If it borders the Pacific Ocean, it's part of the Pacific Rim.

He's only really dead if you can find the body.

If it fell under "blogging", yeah, those are gone.

Well, there was slight server problem and a slight software changeover in the not-too-distant past.

Shrink film thickens as it shrinks, making the pieces more durable.

Godzooky?

Or heresy, depending on your PoV.

Slowly, with deliberate movements, the wooden staff shifted, then spun, and finally was thrust straight-out. Blood hammered in Jason's temples. Whether to the beat of his heart or the music that was playing just a touch too loud, he wasn't sure. His attention was focused on his movements. The staff was brought back into a guard position. Then it spun deftly and moved through a low sweep before coming to rest in a one-hand grip, braced along the back of Jason's arm. Sweat slicked his body. With the back of his empty hand he wiped away beads of perspiration that threatened to sting his eyes. The staff came back into guard. With a flick of Jason's wrist, the staff flashed out to rapidly strike the body of a wing chun wooden dummy. He brought the staff upright, the butt of it resting between his bare feet on the mat. Jason crouched low with one leg outstretched. The staff was held in a two-handed grip, pointing low along the line of his leg. He rose up on one foot and planted the staff. First one foot, and then the other, kicked out. Jason landed facing the opposite direction from whence he started. He continued with his workout until the music cut out and threw him off his rhythm. “What?” he called out. “There is an individual at the front door,” Mentor told him. Jason tossed the staff toward the rack, a reflection of his mood that had sent him in to workout, where it clattered before coming to rest on the floor. He picked up a towel and stepped into house shoes. Mopping his face with the towel on the way out the door, Jason stopped and looked at the staff. With a sigh, he turned and collected the staff, putting it in its proper place.

No. What you're describing can simply be the SFX of his Flight power and a Blast/RKA power.

Most players don't take Unluck because they don't want "random" GM interference with their actions. And those that take it, like you, buy it off first.

I use a battle mat that handles the Clix base just fine. I play on occassion, so not into tearing them apart.

Good luck on those. They were Grenadier miniatures.

Clix are good. I use them. I used to be a WizKids Envoy back around when HC started, so I have a lot of them. Other miniatures, there are metal available, sometimes hard to find. I have DC Heroes minis, the old Champions minis, Shadow Run... All depends on what you're looking for.

At least COBRA had its own front band. Cold Slither.

Mostly it has to do with the terrain where the fight is taking place. Narrow bridges are a favorite.

Cordelia Chase in Angel directly applied her skill with pom-poms to a sword. Much to Angel's surprise.
