Do we have a range for Villains and Heroes?

How do roles count where one presence requires the other (like the Hawks and Wonder Twins) for those ranges?

Why is it still Night? Has the Crime Syndicate stolen the Sun? If so, I vote for Mr. Burns!!!

I grew up with the Simpsons.
Used to watch it in Quebec french, they actually used local comedians to do the voice over so all the translation was well made instead of the crap we get with movies translated in France.

El Guapo.
Roberto Rodriguez stopped a mugger with his abilities, and, in doing so, lead to his recruitment into the X-Statix. El Guapo was soon killed by a curse that was put on him by Henrietta Hunter, which caused his skateboard to impale him.

His power was apparently focussed through his skateboard, which moved at his mental command and sometimes acted out his subconscious thoughts, as when the skateboard beat him up for cheating on his girlfriend.

The name's Moliere, but everybody calls me Cheryl. Any of you guys call me Molaire or Molierre, and I'll kill you. And I don't like nobody touching my stuff. So just keep your meat-hooks off. If I catch any of you guys in my stuff, I'll kill you.

Come the morning, the Crime Syndicate returns to their lair, chortling gleefully and covered in blood.

MEANWHILE BACK AT JUSTICE LEAGUE HEADQUARTERS

Aquaman is busy finishing the laundry spin cycle when a bloody corpse falls out of the closet.

REMUS WEST is DEAD.

It is Day One.

Players with orders, please get them in.

He hasn't been willing to share a range for Bad Guys, so I wouldn't put it past him. And it would be just like the Syndicate to get to the Narrator.

I like to poke Remus not point a giant I did it sign on my back. :)

With that said, I didn't do it. Even though if I did, that is what I would have said. ;)

So out of Curiosity the only real way we will ever know is if Batman is in the game (other than at the end of the game)?

Correct, only Batman and Brainiac have the Breakdown. In the event Batman is converted to Harley, consumed by Parasite, or has communicated to Martian Manhunter who then passes on information, the Villains would know.
Brainiac could Divulge to Martian Manhunter.

How do people like the Wonder Twins and Hawks count against the totals? Are they considered one or two?

Could you just give us the description of how you go about making the field of specials?
So you say 2-3 Villains - but you describe Parasite and Joker interplay - and those 2 could indeed create a field of 4 villains, for instance.
If you rolled a Joker, do you count it as 2?
And to Stessier's point - if you rolled a Hawk and Wonder pair, would we be correct to assume that was our "4" Heroes, or could you have actually rolled 2 more?

killing Remus on the first night these days feels almost like starting a game during the day. There are so many reasons he is chosen for the first kill that it is useless info.
The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.
