My players have been trying to trap the bad guys at the beginning of the fight. They reference page 60 about Unleash your Powers where you wrap your villain in a metal cage. They use their powers in a creative way to cage the bad guy.

It is bringing what could be epic battles to a quick halt. I know I can create some villains that escape this kind of situation, but I don’t want to make every villain like that. That would feel cheesy.

Are we doing this right? Or should they have to beat down the villain before being able to trap her/him?
