NORAD reports the crash of an extraterrestrial object deep in the Appalacian mountains. The Guardians are dispatched to report on and recover any possible alien technology. They are not the only ones interested in the crash.
Members of the All Southern Squadron along with Hellion from the Crime Syndicate also converge on the outskirts of the sleepy town of Cooter's Crossing.

Immediately, Flea sprung into action using his bouncing speed to get to what turned out to be a crashed alien craft first. He quickly grabbed an important looking object, and dashed back. Meanwhile A.J.A.X. took to the air for the Guardians, hoping to reign missiles and laser down from above.
The Super Villains made the most of the woods to approach cautiously.

A.J.A.X.'s vantage point in the sky gave him a clear view of the battlefield but also made him a target. Texas Twister unleashed a Tornado Punch, nearly knocking the armored hero from the sky.
Whistlin' Dixie from the All Southern Squadron moved up to loot the ship, but it was immediately apparent her skills were needed for battle. One blast of her sonic whistle nearly destroyed Goldar.

Lucky for him, his robotic body was able to repair itself.
This attack was quickly followed up by Johnny Reb who not only beat Flea within an inch of his life, but moved on to help Whipper pummel the Cyclops and the Crimson Cowl.

Doc Titan was effectively taken out of the fight. He was surrounded by the evil Mechanoids and Hellion. They couldn't hurt him, but he couldn't seem to harm them either. This standoff took half the teams out of the game.
Flea was conscious enough to get the tech off the battlefield and went back for more (Brave fellow). He was attacked by Texas Twister.

Goldar repaired himself and counter attacked Dixie. She couldn't withstand his Diamond Ray.
As night fell, the Guardians retreated with the alien tech but left the Villains in control of the battlefield and with it the alien ship.
Later, at the Guardian's Citadel, the tech was examined. It was a version of an alien "blackbox". The ship had been sent to warn Earth of it's impending attack by an alien overlord known only as the Despot!
Here's a close look at the All Southern Squadron so far. Adding Gray Ghost, Hellbilly and Ragin' Cajun soon.

I think they use SuperSystem 2nd ed.

Awesome. Whistlin' Dixie is a great name for a superheroine.

Thanks, just checking back. Week 3 of the virus battle. Back ground on the figs is here:
http://baronvonj.blogspot.com/2014/02/new-supers.html
but, to recap, Johnny Reb is a direct repaint of a Heroclix fig, Jack Flagg. Whistlin' Dixie is just Wonder Woman with a greenstuff skirt. Texas Twister is the bottom half of Red Tornado and the top half a DC hero which I can't recall, but he;s a cowboy who rides a motorcycle. His Tornado punch is just greenstuff.
Yes, SS2. Always liked the use of Action Points.

Cowboy is Vigilante from DC.

Thanks Styx. Bonus with him is once I cut off the lower half I got a 28mm scale motorcycle out of it.

I was thinking about picking up that fig, the fact it has a great bike and the price is cheap...
