(Not really a question, but this forum seemed like the best place to provide feedback.) To quote Popeye the Sailor, "Garsh... this is embarasskin'!" 😳 So, I uh... I was using Champions Complete last night, and happened to notice a not-inconsiderable error I made in it, lo those many years ago... On page 20, when describing Pushing in Heroic campaigns, it says, "Pushing in Heroic campaigns requires an EGO Roll ... The character gains 1 CP to the ability per 1 point he makes the roll by, to a maximum of +5 CP." That is just flat-out incorrect. That second sentence should read, "The character can add up to 5 CP to the ability i…

I've been a bit out of the loop regarding HERO, so it's only recently that I came across the Hall of Champions program. And I have to say that I really liked the concept, as I thought it was a neat way to get some content out there, reviving interest in HERO etc. But I have to say that I don't quite get the reason for some of the guidelines. As this might interest others, I thought I'll post this here and not just do it privately by email. If that's not appropriate, feel free to delete this (and hopefully respond via PM then ) So, if I'm reading the "Rules Variants" clause the right way, I'm not allowed at all to publish variant rules for the offic…

Believe it or not, it was 20 years ago today that Darren Watts, Jason Walters, the Secret Masters, and myself bought the HERO System (and its related IPs)! It's been a wonderful, amazing journey ever since -- one with its ups and downs, like any journey -- but still an awesome one. My deepest thanks to all the HERO fans out there who have made it possible!

Hello everyone! We have a variety of projects going on at Hero Games right now, both for quarter one of 2021 and for the year as a whole. I wanted to let you know about them, get your input, and ask if there is anything you would like to see created by Hero Games in the coming year. Of course, I can’t promise you we will act on those suggestions! Only that we will listen and do what we can, given the limited time and resources that we have. Please feel free to comment. UPCOMING NEW RELEASES The following three projects have been turned into us, have been approved, and are in various levels of production right now. (If you have submitted a project to us and don’t…

Question for Hero company. I had a question on a discord server for Hero System about military ranks and points. I thought I remembered seeing it in my dark champions book but it was in storage so I couldn’t check. I found the information online and took a screenshot of the chart in the book. Is sharing that screenshot allowed? I see people asking questions about rules and costs of points all the time. But wanted to make sure it was permitted.

First, I know nothing about how this works. Second, I have no hero system experience, so this is not me trying to make a buck. I was curious if the company has ever thought about sponsoring a group to play Hero system as a youtube , etc, group online. Someone already know as a way to get eyes on the game more. I have only found a couple video groups play and they are not the level of production that makes them an enjoyable watch. Maybe this is a thought that has been looked into and it is not feasible. Maybe times have changed and this is more feasible now. Just random thoughts as I sit though huddle at work.

Sorry if I am late to the party, but I couldn’t find this on the forums. As a long time fan of Champions, has there ever been any discussion of having a “Living Champions” (or “Living Hero Games” if you prefer) type campaign? I know the world is askew at the moment, but I hope and believe that conventions and (in-person) game days and such will eventually return. When that happens, I would love to see more Champions offered (which seems be a recurring sentiment on this board), and I thought a Living campaign might be a good way to promote that: I’m thinking of a lot of the previous living campaigns I’ve been involved in: Living City, Living Death (still my favorite), Livi…

Is there a file icon for HERO Games. This would be an .ico file. I am creating some database files that I will share and would like to use a HERO Games icon rather than the generic one.

Hi guys! I'm planning out our next Bundle of Holding project, and I wanted to pick your collective brains about something which involves the history of Hero Games. As many of you know, I've been working steadily with the help of Allen Varney of Bundle of Holding to get everything that has ever been created in print by Hero Games going all the way back to its beginnings scanned and made available in electronic form. The next step in this process involves the old Adventurers Club magazines. I envision of B of H project that includes all the issues of it, Digital Hero, maybe some issues of Steve Jackson Games' old magazine Space Gamer. (I've worked with SJG on B…

I’m not sure this is the right forum for this question, so feel free to move it to the right one. Back in 2014 I bought the 6th edition of the Hero System Skills book in PDF form. At the time I don’t think there was a dead tree version. Recently I noticed there was a hard copy for sale and I’m wondering if there were any updates to the PDF version? It didn’t seem like there was a new version I could download, so I thought I would ask.

Hello, I just got the HSMA character pack and it’s a good deal. However I noticed a glitch. The Prefab for Ninjitsu is wrong. It looks like they saved Naginatajitsu for Ninjitsu. Ninjitsu has more than four maneuvers lol. I just wanted to give a heads up. Also am I able to modify the Prefab?

I am in the process of transforming D&D 1.0 Modules G1-3 Against the Giants to Hero 6.0. I think it is neat and would like to post them for free but I want to make sure that there wouldn't be any legal problems with doing so.

I'm writing a game based on the 5e/6e Hero System rules to be used with miniatures. If I want to put it up on a site where I can get profits off it under my own name, who do I need to contact? Is this even possible? The reason I am asking is because I've spent countless hours pouring over my documents and worked and reworked the game, and I also have some goals regarding designing games, so I'd need to display my skill in getting this done and having something to show for myself. I kept the basic mechanics but heavily modified the stats and the way some things work, so it would not be official Hero source book material, but it's own gam…

I'm planning on making a webnovel in the near future, and I'm wondering about fair use of the system. I am planning on making and using my own universe, but I'm also planning to make it be a litrpg setting and I enjoy hero system. I love the idea of having full rules that readers can pick up, read and understand just how strong each character is rather than just handing out arbitrary numbers that can mean gobbledygook. As for what I am seeking clarification about and permission for, basicly a step beyound making a source book for a setting (also what hoops are needed to make a 3pp campain setting source book?) Or about as much rope as youtube tapletop games us…
