The Tomorrow Vigil proceeds to [[IndyPloy improvise like crazy]] and pull a con worthy of {{Leverage}} to not only make the Deneb Imperium back down, but also bluff them into believing that their own interdimensional ambitions are suicidally risky due to the existence of a bigger, stronger version of their empire in the multiverse that despises them.

Doctor Menlo had instead been running herself ragged trying to find a way to harmlessly strand the Rikti army between dimensions.

** Michelle Angelmark, when fighting against a team of the 8 deadliest metahumans available to Vanguard, demonstrates what an ''insane'' tactical badass she is, taking down ''seven'' of them before going down...

To put this in perspective, Glyphica is a PowerParasite so dangerous, that Vanguard usually keeps her locked up in their [[GodzillaThreshold "break in case of apocalypse"]] vault, has basically turned into a dragon, [[BeyondTheImpossible and has stolen a big enough chunk of Strike's speed to nullify her biggest advantage]]. Strike still win.

* The campaign starts on a high note - as early as the middle of the first arc, the team organizes a raid to rescue a hostage [[ToHellAndBack from a hell dimension]], and, since they're already there, rescue 3000 other imprisoned souls. The whole thing is treated like the liberation of a concentration camp.
** Also from the first arc: During the fight with the godlike Entropy, realizing his power comes from being a RealityWarper, [[RulesLawyer Miss Trial]] appeals to obscure alien law to declare his warping of reality illegal and blocks them with her own powers.
* In the second arc, the heroes are facing with [[TheEmpire the Deneb Imperium]], which is far too powerful to fight head-on, is pressuring their Silen allies, and engineered a situation where team member Cerulean is to be taken by them as prisoner. The Tomorrow Vigil proceeds to [[IndyPloy improvise like crazy]] and pull a con worthy of {{Leverage}} to not only make the Deneb Imperium back down, but also bluff them into believing that their own interdimensional ambitions are suicidally risky due to the existence of a bigger, stronger version of their empire in the multiverse that despises them.
* The third arc is kickstarted by an almost-successful assassination attempt on Sumire, who by all accounts is a PhysicalGod. What foils the assassination attempt? Cerulean [[HeroicSacrifice throwing herself in the line of fire]], and, even as she is almost killed herself, begging those present to save everyone else first.
* The fourth arc is one long string of the Tomorrow Vigil [[CurbstompBattle steamrolling]] over the corrupt forces of Watson Earth while trolling the ones in charge, being an awesome, heroic OutsideContextProblem.
* The fifth arc is one massive MomentOfAwesome for the game master, successfully [[GenreWelding mixing]] a superhero campaign and an AceAttorney AffectionateParody.
** Also in the fifth arc, the team successfully resolving the MurderMystery, followed by disarming the DoomsdayDevice, winning the standoff with [[SmugSnake Incandescent]], and finally quelling riots all over Primal Earth.
