Setting Out the Game Materials

Great! Now follow the numbering and set out the game materials accordingly. Everything else can go back in the box for now.

1. Set out all the figures.
2. Set out all 7 dice. Place one die on the 7 and one die on the 6, above the Confidence track.
3. Depending on the number of players, place the red wooden token on the marked space of the Confidence track.
4. Place the End-of-Hour tile on the left card space.
5. Set out the Bat-Filter and the companion booklet.
6. Set out the Gotham cards as a stack.
7. Each of you choose a hero or heroine and place their hero disc in front of you with the light gray side up. Important: one of you must choose Batman.
8. Place the green disc on space 0 of the Super-Villain track.
9. Set out the 3 flames.
10. For the 1st case, you initially only need the wound tokens. Place these on the storage tray. Put all other tokens back in the box. If you need more tokens later, you will be prompted to take them.
11. Set out the packet of story cards for the first case, "Missing."
