DC Downunder

[Wombat]

I just got copy of DC in the mail. It has now found it's way down to us happy folks in Australia.
Looks good .(real good).... must resist urge to spend all day reading it and actually get some work done.

Wow, glad to hear it's made its way down to the land of the kookaburra. I guess the Mystic Order of Marsupial Adventurers has been doing its job ensuring the safe delivery of books.

It's in at least some shops, too. I got my copy last Thursday in Brisbane.

For what it's worth, at least a couple of shops had lots of Hero stuff in stock. Hopefully, that's because it's selling.

Which, I might add, might be worth thinking about for Hero Games. Champions Universe, in particular, was a bit dismissive of the presence of supers in Australia and New Zealand. That makes it a little difficult to set games here if a GM wants to follow the official CU closely. Since we appear to be a not-entirely-insignificant market, that's at least a minor problem.

Of course, individual GMs can and should ignore that in their campaigns, but that's not really the point.

As for what I am thinking of doing with DC - well, a DC:TAS game looks interesting. I might have it coexisting with a "Champions: TAS" game as well, with slightly more powerful characters in the latter. In other words, have both "animated Batman" and "animated Superman" hanging around.

Or something like that.

Wow another player in Brisbane ...... cool.

Toowoomba, actually.

Although I was living in Brisbane back when I started playing Champions in 1982.
