JLA/Avengers first annual crossover

In the grand tradition of the classic JLA/JSA crossovers we begin with a Mixed Universe meeting between the Justice League and Avengers.
The two teams have gotten together for a friendly meeting to compare notes and get to know each other better.
However the meeting is interrupted by a mysterious being who sends them on a mission to rescue various heroes who have been kidnapped and held prisoner by various teams of rogues plotting to use their powers and resources to rule the world.

The two teams are paired up and sent rescue missions:

Set up a section on the map to be used as the prison for the hero to be rescued. Block off any openings with barriers of some sort. Imprisoned heroes may not be used until the rescuing heroes have breached the prison. If a hero is not powerful enough to successfully destroy a wall of the prison they must physically touch a section of the prison where it will be assumed they are equipped with a device that enables them to unlock a door. One villain must stay posted as a guard for the prisoner and can only engage the rescuers if they get within six spaces from the prison unless they have a ranged attack.
Prisoners are free to aid their rescuers in a fight once their prison has been breached.

Later I will assign villains for each scenario.

If the villain teams successfully prevent a rescue they must engage a successful team of rescuers until either the heroes have rescued everybody or the villains have defeated every hero.
