[HH] Battle for the Shrunken Moon

Post by silasw » Mon Oct 19, 2020 10:48 pm

An unnamed offscreen villain has shrunken the moon and the Eiffel Tower, but while making his escape he left them behind in this small town! Now two teams are fighting to retrieve the loot and earn the sweet reward.

On one side, Thor leads a squad of Skion troopers (for some reason). On the other, the Brikwave Collective led by the Plastic Lover.

Immediately, Thor uses his lightning powers to send the moon rolling towards the Collective front line! One trooper manages to jump out of the way.

However the biker trips over her bike and is promptly flattened by the moon. The bike takes heavy damage as well.

A shootout happens near the Eiffel Tower! The Skion biker is taken out.

Thor uses his Bifrost to teleport behind the diner, intending to jump on the roof and unleash more lightning...

The Skion troops head towards the diner for cover. However, the Plastic Lover uses her perfect pitch to resonate with the diner's windows, shattering all of them! The glass shards shoot outwards and kill several Skion troops.

Another Skion trooper grabs the bike and charges towards a Collective trooper...

Successfully ramming and killing her. For extra style points, he also shoots the closest enemy. However, he only manages to shoot the gun out of her hands.

The battle isn't looking too great for Thor's team, so he decides that enough is enough. He jumps on the roof and unleashes his ultimate attack...

Image

A massive lightning bolt hits the Eiffel Tower! A huge shockwave erupts from the tower, zapping everyone nearby. A couple of Collective troops are taken out, but the Plastic Lover is able to absorb the waves of energy to become stronger.

Feeling satisfied with how that turned out, Thor immediately goes for another lightning bolt. However, he accidentally zaps himself instead. The hero meets a spectacular end.

The Skion troops make their last stand with a final shootout.

But when there's one trooper left on both sides, the Plastic Lover throws her boomerang record for the final blow!

Judging:

Gameplay: 5 Lots of fighting, lots of action, plenty of SPLAT and a nice battle concept.

Photos: 4 The setup was nice, the photos were clear and showed the action fairly well. The only thing that detracted from it was the tablecloth under the battlefield. Still, you did a decent job of matching it to the sand-colored baseplate...

Violence: 5 Lots of it. Minifigs died. Minifigs got hit by flying glass. Minifigs got run over. All in all, plenty nuff violence.

Writing: 4 Nice story plot, if a little sparse on background, but the action was clearly explained and I never had to guess what was happening in the photos.

Appeal: 4 Moon was mentioned. Yay. In the meantime, there was a lot of action and violence with plenty of stuff happening. Just a little, um, short?

Battle for the Shrunken Moon

Gameplay - 4. Fairly solid, some good heroic feats.
Photography - 3: Sometimes multiple photos for one sentence was a bit confusing, random human anatomy parts in a couple shots which scares me because humans are gross.
Violence - 3: Some, but nothing crazy over the top.
Writing - 3: Enough to follow what was going on.
Overall Appeal - 5. I mean, people are literally killing each other over the moon, what more could I really want from the concept? Probably for it to give me a nice massage.
