For example can Iceman now "ice up" at will or was it only involuntary given that he only did it once and is still pretty young. And even if he can, do we really know if he is at the level that he can transfer his conciseness to surrounding water vapor? The same thing applies with Kitty. She is still relatively inexperienced and I don't think that the comic book Kitty can remain intangible all the time (although I could be wrong here).That being said remember than in addition to Uruk's there are also trolls and other creatures in the army that could simply bash Colossus into the mountain or toss off the battle field. Given that they are outnumbered by the thousands I just see them either not being able to defend themselves from all these attacks (either because of their lack of durability or lack of combat expierence). Even Colossus and Wolverine I can see getting immobalized just given the numbers they are up against.
You make good points, and I cannot argue with you about Iceman. Who knows? But you cannot assume that he CAN'T ice up at will, and neither can I assume that he CAN. Regardless, as I pointed out, it doesn't matter, the rest of the Xmen could take this easy.
Oh, and as far as kitty goes, you're right here again. This isn't the ninja kitty, nor the one we see from the comics. But we don't know that she CAN'T do exactly what I said - phase through while ripping up their insides. So who knows? Still a moot point from what we know about the others.
Colossus could be hurled from the battlefield, but whats to stop him from walking back? As far as this battle is concerned, he is indestructable. Even if EVERYONE else is killed, colossus just cannot be harmed by these foes. And what are they to do if storm flies into the air, out of range of arrows, and just rains hell?
It would take time, but they could eventually clear the field.
