The core mechanic of conflict resolution in MY LIFE WITH THE BATMAN is opposed rolls of d4 pools. Rolled fours are discarded. Totals of the remaining dice are compared, with victory going to the highest total. The game is nuanced by the use of differently calculated pools for the various types of conflict, and by a mechanic that reflects one side or the other trying to influence conflict outcomes by playing upon the emotions of the opposition.
