Comment: Act Two of War Games concluded in Batman #632. Act Three continues in Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #184

Synopsis:

Batman and his costumed allies, along with the Gotham City Police Department, have herded the criminal element of Gotham City into a stadium in Robinson Park. Here, Batman plans to use Orpheus to unite them all under a benevolent head. However, as Onyx discovers, Orpheus is dead, slain by the Black Mask, who has taken his place in order to take control of the Gotham underworld. Predictably, all hell breaks loose, with a host of gangsters, thugs and super-villains all in one place, with many of them intent on seeing Batman dead. Following an explosion, many of them stream from the stadium, causing numerous police casualties as they go. This is the final straw for Commissioner Akins. No more rubber bullets, no more turning a blind eye. From now on, the Gotham City Police Department's orders are the same when faced by anyone in a mask - shoot to kill.
