----------------------------------------------------------------------
Battle Information
There will be a 24 hour time period for battles. A new thread will be created for each round of the tournament. A poll will be created, and after the 24 hour time period is over, then whoever has the most votes on the poll wins.
Votes must come from board regulars. (No random new guy popping up and voting)
. Battlefield removals are non-existant
Prep-time will consist of two hours on the battlefield and with teammates
Teams begin their prep at opposite ends of the battlefield.
1. To prevent premature fighting, the battlefield is split in two, right down the middle
• The battlefield split makes it impossible for teams to spy on one another via any means
G. The battlefield changes climate/location for every battle, but remains a constant 10 square miles
1. Battlefields are devoid of humans, but retain a natural abundance of common materials and animals
Examples of areas of battle:
• arctic ice field
• barren desert
• deciduous forest
• tropic jungle
• empty cavern
• metropolitan city
• The Moon
• Himalayan mountain range

Thin Man has stretching powers such as Mr. Fantastic, Plastic Man or Elongated Man. He uses sub-space to twist, bend, elongate and controt his body in myriad ways. In addition to stretching via subspace, he can use subspace to teleport, and can flatten his body into nearly 2 dimensional proportions, rendering his own body razor sharp and a viable weapon. He's also remarked on having enhanced senses with which he can see through sub-dimensional barriers.
Do you actually have proof of this? Such as scans of the comic, issue number, summary of what happened?
With his tech and preptime he could take down namor.
In just plain combat, namor obviousely wins. What's reed gonna do to a guy that has taken a nuclear explosion, re-entry into the earth's atmosphere, and a beating from the savage hulk without injury?
Thanks for the clarification on Thin Man, and I shall choose him in addition to Black Bolt.
The fight was somewhat inconclusive. It was in Marvel Knights Fantastic Four #7 I believe. Reed distracted Namor, put 80% of his body's mass into his fist and hit Namor with it. For the rest of the fight, Namor pounded on Reed, but Reed went all jelly-like, so the blows could never land on hard flesh and hurt Reed.
Sorry, I had not seen the previous post about Black Bolt.
If I cannot channel electrons, than I shall use photons!
Captain Marvel (Genis) at whichever level qualifies him for e.meta.
