So I created a new public club (hopefully wont get a take down notice/change the name notice from the HERO group) called the Adventurers Club(link). The idea is, it's a place where people can post about their heroes and other things PC character related. While I originally thought of the club for superheroes, any hero should be welcome. There are forum categories for people selling, showing off, or requesting artwork("Press, paparazzi, and fan clubs for the heroes") and Social activities ("At The Bar") like best hero design contests, best costume contest, best backstory contest, meetups at conventions, open gaming invites, etc. For use in a campa…

Just want to throw this out there for people looking for a monster hunting fix. John Hartness has a series called Bubba the Monster Hunter. It's about what you'd expect, given the title - A guy who, when he's not drinking beer by the pitcher in a nudie bar and watching college football on TV, drives around the south in a pick-up truck and hunts monsters with his Desert Eagle .50 named Bertha. Several books available for cheap on Kindle. Also available as audiobooks.

I've been playing in a Monster Hunter game for a few months now. After each game, I mock up a book cover to commemorate each of our adventures. And, for the holidays, I figured we'd send Christmas cards to our clients.

Hello, i'm going to master a MHI game and i'm also new to hero system (as all my group). I'm searching a way to balance the game avoiding my players from doing too much damages ruining the feeling. I know the rule of X and characteristics maxima but i'm not sure about the damage class limit and a good way to mix all together. MHI is an heroic game so maxima should apply, can you give me advices? Thanks

I was reading about the game, and it seems like it might make a good fit for a Monster Hunter game. How would you write up the creepy animatronics in the place?

One of the major tropes of the monster hunter genera is that a normal human armed with only a simple sword can be a threat to huge nasty beastie because with one blow he can decapitate the meanest werewolf or vampire. So how does decapitation a head or severing a limb work in Hero? Called Shot penalty, sure. When does the head/limb get cut off?

I'm working on an outline for a demo adventure to run at Cons and FLAGS. The PCs are a group of young, new monster hunters who have just set up shop in Dogpatch, Iowa. They have been marketing aggressively, getting their name out to all the local police & fire departments as well as the county sheriff's office. The adventure is divided into seven encounters. Only three of these are combat encounters. The rest are opportunities for the PCs to use their skills, interact with NPCs, and role play. One key to this adventure is that, while each PC has access to a variety of handguns, rifles, shotguns, and hundreds of rounds of conventional a…

Hello everyone, I know the MHI book gives a list of PUFF bounties per monster, but I was wondering when the players get the cash- what could they spend it on? How would you calculate expenses like lifestyle, rent, etc? And how much should weapons cost? Drones, ammo, vehicles, buildings, etc? Let me know how you resolved this dilemma in the past.

I had this sudden notion strike me after reading Urban Fantasy Hero and the Invasive Species example setting within it, which seems like it could merge quite nicely with MHI, especially the plot seed for an Interdenominational Death Squad. Perhaps I've seen too many Quentin Tarantino movies, but the idea of a group of monster hunters composed of, quoting from the plot seed, "an assortment of heavily armed ministers, monks, priests, rabbis, nuns, and imams..." sounds like it would be pretty cool.

Hi Hero Gang! I am currently using Hero to run a campaign similar to the TV show Supernatural but maybe a bit more serious...

Are there any? I need to print some as those would be better than "standard" character sheets.

Hello everyone, I just wanted to see how people would build a commercial surveillance drone. One of the PCs wants to make one that can also deliver explosive bombs. How should I go about building it? Should it be a vehicle or a focus? If any of you have built one in the past, let me know how you built it.

Hey guys, Does anyone have MHI character sheet pdfs or export templates for hero designer? I would like to convert my MHI pcs into the proper format, as the standard pdfs don't include things like encumbrance. Please let me know.

I recently played MHI with a group of RPG friends, and they loved it! It was a definite hit. One friend made his character a tribute to Ash from the Evil Dead movies, and we had to wing the stats for a chainsaw. We looked online and there were at least 3 different stats on forums for a chainsaw. Is there an 'official" one somewhere? If not which set of stats would you recommend? Thanks for all the help you all have been while I get used to a new system. I love the forums here.

Hi, Long time gamer and huge fan of the MHI novels. Didn't realise there was a MHI game until recently and have come to have a look. In all my history of trying different rule sets, I have somehow managed to avoid the Hero System. Most of the groups I have associated with have always dismissed the Hero System as excessively complicated. Is the criticism justified? I see most praise the game for its ability to generate or replicate statistics for anything out there. How? How does this differ from other game systems? Is it easy to introduce a new gaming group to the rule set? None of my current gaming groups are interested in Hero system citing the criticisms a…

MHIEHRPG page 214-215 gives statistics for the AH-1W Supercobra, AH-64 Apache and MHI's MI-24 Hind. In addition to the listed machine guns / cannon and anti-tank guided missiles, the Apache (and presumably the Supercobra and Hind) can carry missile pods with the 2.76 inch FFAR rocket. What would be the game statistics for the FFAR? Also, the AGM-114 Hellfire is listed as 4d6 RKA AP Explosion, and the AT-2 as 4d6, AP x 2, Explosion. The M72A3 LAW on page 151 is 6-1/2d6 AP Explosion. According to Wikipedia the Hellfire has an 18 pound warhead, while the entire M72A3 weights 5.5 pounds. Is there any reason the M72 should do more damage?

Hello, I'm new here, just bought the game one week ago, it's great but I'm having some problems. There are some things I don't understand about the total PD/ED of some creatures, not sure if they are wrong (is there any file with all the errata?) or if I'm missing something: Zombie 4PD c=9 Total: 4PD(4rPD) 2ED c=3 Total: 2ED (2rED) Zombie's body --> 2PD c=4 only slashing or piercing (-1/2) Zombie's body --> 2PD c=3 only piercing (-1) Zombie's body --> Resistant (+1/2) 8PD/2ED c=15 Does it work this way? 8rPD against piercing, 6rPD against slashing, 4rPD/2rED against the rest. Why not 4PD against piercing (-1) and 2PD against slashing (-1)? To save point…

OK, somehow, I'm not sure why, I'm only just now discovering Larry Correia's Monster Hunters International series. I'm not sure why it took me so long. I blame you other people on the forum. Got the first two books on audiobook, about 1/3 of the way through the first book. Thank God for my daily three hour round trip commute (Boston traffic SUCKS).

Finally got around to picking up the RPG and prepping to run it for my gaming group. It seems a little unfortunately timed that the RPG came out Legion since there were major changes that happened in Nemesis and there was almost no time gap between Legion and Nemesis. If you are setting your game, like I will be after Nemesis there are some major changes especially with the MCB. Dwayne Myers is dead. Director Stark has "retired" from MCB for medical reasons. The new Acting Director of the MCB is Cueto. Cueto was a Strike Team "trigger puller" who worked his way up to unit commander. Described as a shaved head, muscular, grizzled looking warrior. Was a old friend and co…
