Putting together my games for Origins and I need a decent map of a waterfront warehouse. I've got the software to use even a halfway decent one as a baseline for a custom piece, but I need some inspiration.

One thing about Hero firearms I’ve never been thrilled with is the low ammo consumption rate. Even if you give every character Rapid Attack, it still usually takes several turns to empty a pistol magazine - which is neither realistic nor in genre. Dark Champions has several options (p195-7) for increasing the amount of lead thrown around, but I’ve never actually used any of them. So if you have, which ones did you use, and what did you like/dislike about them? Or what other tricks/house rules have you used to create a hail of projectiles? Did they have any noticeable effects on game balance? Thanks.

Happy Halloween! A few years ago I created a map using Dundjinni and artwork from the CSUAC site for Dark Champions. The map title was "The Vick Memorial Dogfighting Arena" and was used as a fill in with two dark champs who stopped the illegal fights and got some background on one of the Mexican gangs that led to some more adventures later on. Anyway, a Halloween or two ago I resurected the map for a game of supernatural crimefighting. I present it to you for your use with the bare bones of what I used for the game. PETA (or any animal protection agency you want to use) has learned of illegal dog fights being held by various street gangs. They have ple…

One of the campaign ideas I've been toying around with has been the notion of PCs as "honorable" gangsters. Take a little bit of "Goodfellas" and mix with Hong Kong films and the "Kill Bill" movies. Since the PCs would be anti-hero sorts, the bad guys would need to be really villainous to contrast. Has anyone ever tried a campaign like this? How did it work out?

I remember a villain called the Master of Crime. I am looking for him but unable to find him. Was he stopped in 6th Ed? Where is he from? Did he morph into the head of the Card Sharks? I sort of remember him from 4th Ed but haven't found him. Any help anyone?

If a character wrapped a garrote around an unsuspecting enemy's neck, then reversed their stance and let the enemy get strangled while hoisting them up along their back (the garrote is very strong), how would this be accomplished, and what would the damage/penalties to the enemy be?

Stan Lee and Marvel had that series about people with unusual abilities beyond human norms. William Shatner suggests such things in his new series as well. I see these abilities as Dark Champions special abilities or powers. There is part of the brain that slows your body down and with a sense of purpose has allowed people to survive by sheer willpower. I am wondering if others have found such examples.
