My PCs are basicly setting up an ambush to screw up an operation of the NPG. Now, the MC suggests that your average NPG member uses the stats for the Street Thug in the CU. I ran a demo combat with my PCs against these stats a week ago, and they Tore Through my PCs. An OCV/DCV of 3, with a PD of 1 will not stand up to 4 350 point Dark Champions characters. I'm thinking of having around 6-8 NPG members here. What would be a good amount of points for each of these thugs? About how many points, on average, for their weaponry? I want something that is decent enough to scratch the toughest PC, while not enough of an overkill for splattering the weakest. Sugge…

In about 3 different pages of CKC, you can find gray boxes that include some other villains/characters that are briefly described. Pg 146: Al, Arachne, The Basilisk, Mantisman, Python, The Saurian, El Tiburon, Vesper, and White Rhino. Pg 158: Dr'zheem, Frostbite, Jaa'lu Darkmaw, Malachite, Shomak, Steelhand, Terala Shain, and Whirlwind. Pg 215: Backtrack, CheetahMan, Mandala, Skylark, Tagteam, and Zogoth PSI also had a little mention of back ups, but with the exception of Teke, they were handled in MC I think. For the official types out there- Do you know yet if any other books will be fleshing these guys out? For the rest of us- Anyone alre…

This is a character review thread: Background: (Work in progress): Kevin Johnson was a Security forces officer for the USAF in Korea, one day while ona routine patrol he took fire and was wonded, the rest of his squad died. He fainted from the loss of blood, when he awoke he found himself in a small hut, to week to walk, and being tended by an old Korean man. As the weeks went by he found his strength returning, soon he was as strong as ever, for that matter he found himself to be feeling better than he ever did before. He eventualy gave the old man (Who only would give the name of "Me") a fond farewell and went back to base. It was not long until he rea…

In Champion's Universe 5th Ed., we learn on page 73 of the "Shield of the People", a superhumanly strong personal bodyguard of Saddam Hussein. There is indication of an Iraq and Awad super soldier program collboration, that sort of thing. Obviously, a lot has happened in the short time since CU was written. While I shy away from the 'Real World' in my games normally, I can't help but consider exactly what might be happening or have happened in the Champion's Universe version of Iraq. I have recently started an 'officially sanctioned and government liescenced' campaign with my PCs, and they might be going around the world from time to time to protect U.S. interes…

I even did a search around to see if this had been answered, but... How expensive would it be to design a power that basically Transforms any Power (can't affect Characteristics, and presumably couldn't affect Inherent Powers any more than Drain/Suppress/Dispel would) into a Power with the -1 Limitation "Activation 11-"? Would it be a Minor or Major Transform? (Activation 8-, or Burnouts or Jams, would definitely be Major!) Basically, I'm thinking of a character who jinxes or puts the whammy on people. This power would probably have some limitation in the form of Requires Perception Roll or some kind of successful Detect, as things like Mental Powers or Inobviou…

I am running a Champions game and due to lack of sleep all week, my repertiore of sayings for villains is a bit foggy. Then it struck me *WHAM* what better place to get some new ones than here? I'm probably going to be using Mechanon (looking for sayings that reflects his Megalomania and complete and utter disdain for the feeble and infantile attempts at interference with his grand design on the parts of those lesser, insignificant and uttery impotent organics) but I'll take your favorites from any villain. Cheers.

A nice looking superhero adventure for Mutants and Masterminds that looks like something you could easily adapt to Champions or SAS. The adventure feels very much like Crisis on Infinite Earths or Cosmic Odyssey, with the consequences of the action truly epic in scale, yet the obstacles and challenges in the drama remain very much within the scope of the PCs. By easily adapt, I mean the plotline and ballpark-close character adaptations.

Hey everyone, I'm just about to start GMing my first Champions campaign, and I just want to see how other may have handled this situation: Being my fist campaign, I am using the suggested caps for a Standard Superhero campaign. So 60 Strength/12 DC is the ordre "du jour". I have a brick that wants to get a Multipower with some of the typical "brick tricks" (ie earthquake, flick of unconsciousness, etc.). These will probably be bought as Naked Advantages to Strength. Would you guys suggest it be bought to a level that would equate with the 60 point cap? (ex.: Explosion on Strength would limit the Strength used to 40.) Any suggestions would be appreciate…

Here's a quick question for assembled Herodom. I'm playing a speedster in my current campaign and have a speed tricks multipower. While have in this a Autofire HA, Megascale Surface Flight (and the senses not to splat myself), TK with both hands (Cyclone Creation Affect), a "Sonic-Boom Snap" (Flash vs Hearing, Kncokback, Does Double knockback), Missile refection vs bullets, and really neat Desolid, this is the primary "power base" for my PC other than his Movement, SPD and DEX. I have the obligatory Armored Spandex, skills, etc. I was wondering if anyone had any more "speedster" ideas for a MP Slot that would be useful?

I have a character concept that has been buging me to create. The character has had his mind expanded to the point he is one with himself across the multiverse. His mind shattered under the stress of being expanded. Before the incident he was a student going for his doctorate in transdimensional physics. He had just made a breakthrough when his girlfriends powers manifested and she expanded his mind to help him with his doctorate. He has access to all of their powers and skills for his use. He can't be teleported by any teleport that is defined as entering another dimension as he is already there. He has a tendency to respond to things that aren't in "his" uni…

I'm starting up a Champions campaign at my local FLGS and need some adventure ideas. I have a few of my own but I'd like to get some input from others to help stimulate the creative juices. The premise of the campaign is that the U.S. government has determined that super-terrorist organizations such as Viper and Demon are a great enough threat that a special organization should be created to deal with them. To this end, the FBI, the CIA, and DOSPA are coordinating to fund and train "Project Strike." Project Strike consist of 5-7 meta-humans, 6 squads of 10 tactical combat agents, and various and sundry support personel. The Meta-human (all PC's) agents will act a…

Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on how to handle removing the Juggernaut's (from the MARVEL universe) helmet to expose his weakness to mental attacks - is it just simply an OIF or something more? The X-men characters seem to have a hell of a time removing the bolts that hold it - If it is done as an Inaccessible focus it would take a turn to remove but is the effect cumulative (does characters chipping away at a OIF equate to a "turn")? Does anyone else have any ideas on how to stop a Juggernaut-esque character (I am doing a blatant rip off for my campaign)? Thanks Daz

I got the DVD of the Original director's cut of this the other day. It got me thinking. How would people convert the Bunch into Champions terms ? And by that I don't mean that they have to all have guns etc. And they would be operating nowadays. And also I had heard that the Wild Bunch was based on a real life group but I have never found any proof of that including web searches. Anyone care to enlighten me ?

Ok, we've covered Golden Age in general, the arch Nazi nemesis Professor Peril and his Household of Destruction, now I think it's time to dwell on some Allied heroes for my PC's to eventually encounter. After all, we don't want them to think the American Contingent [which is them] is fighting this by themselves. Now Mexico of course is already being defended by the Mighty El Santo, and I pause to thank The Great Book of Real Heroes for providing an excellent write up of him, and I have an idea for two superheroes out of Canada. These two Canadian stalwarts are The Mountie and the Ancient Mariner. The Mountie, who will probably use his real name, is obviously …
