Help with purchase order!!

[oneoflittleword]

Now I know that I need the main Champions book but what I would like to know is which others would be the "Must Have" books/supplements to really get things rolling?

[Spideyguy]

I think the Ultimate Martial Artist is a must-have for anyone who ever plays martial artists, or campaigns that center around a chop-sake theme.

Even if you campaigns don't feature a lot of these two elements, giving a PC a cool (and sometimes obscure) fighting art makes the character more interesting and mysterious.

Here's some earlier discussion on books that might help...

You need Hero System Fifth Edition. The other books really depend on what you are planning on playing.

If you are playing a superhero game, then you definately want Conquerors, Killers & Crooks, and could get plenty of use out of Champions Universe, Champions, and the up-coming Millennium City.

If you are playing scifi game I would definately recommend Star Hero and Terran Empire.

If you are going to run a fantasy, or normals game, then I would suggest you get The Bestiary and the Ultimate Martial Artist.

If you plan on playing in all those games, then get all the books. :)

The books I use the most are FREd, CKC, Champions Universe, and the Bestiary; as well as the Millennium City manuscript. As a player in a Terran Empire game I get a whole bunch of use out of the TE book.
