  1. I noticed that in the 6th Edition Prefab "HERO System Equipment Guide Character Pack" all of the armor is listed as an OAF. Shouldn't it be an OIF or am I missing something?

  2. In the Hero 5th edition book, Equipment Guide, many of the firearms have a note stating micr, which means Micrometer Sights. The description of this only says the following: Unfortunately, it does not say anything about how many levels it would give. Does anyone know how many levels this would give the weapon?

  3. Hello fellow Herophiles. I recently purchased The Sands of Time (by Phil Masters) softcover and .PDF book here in the store. However, a Character Pack of .HDC files is no where to be found. Have any of you made those .HDC files yet? If so, I'd be happy to pay you a few bucks for your efforts.

  4. As per the title was the Revised edition of the 5E rules ever released as a Hard Cover? I somehow totally missed the revised editions release and am looking to add it to my HERO RPG collection, but as it's such a big boy (550+ pages) I'd rather have it in Hard Cover than Soft Cover. NOTE: I should say I've searched the HERO store, DriveThru, ebay and nobleknight and only see the PDF and or Softcover versions of the book.

  5. I thought it might be interesting to have a thread to discuss and/or reminisce about some of the never-published but discussed projects for this system. Mythic Hero Ultimate Weapon(multivolume) Ultimate Power Armor Ultimate Mastermind Ultimate Gadgeteer Star Hero: Solar Hero setting book Star Hero: Interstellar Hero setting book Star Hero: Galactic Federation setting book Cyber Hero 5th/6th Edition version Bonus--I don't think it was ever discussed, but a few more master villain sourcebooks ala Book of... would have been nice(Takofanes, Tyrannon, Kings of Edom, etc)

  6. What, if any, is the difference between the 5th Edition Ultimate Skill book and the 6th editions skill book? 5th Edition Ultimate Skill https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/29279/the-ultimate-skill-pdf Is it really only 64 pages long?!? 6th Edition HERO System Skills https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/86534/hero-system-skills Part of my confusion comes from the Pics of both books on DriveThruRPG having the same pic. And it seems like the Pic for the 6E book has been the pic of the 5E book for going on 10 years now! I love ya dearly HERO games but ca'mon, get the correct pic up on the #1 sales site for pdf's.

    I bought the Gun Fu PDF from Hero Games and was sent links to two different PDFs. The thing is, they both look to be the same to me. There may be a difference but I can't see it. If you bought those PDFs, is there a difference between them? And if so, which is the better one to use/print out for a hardcopy? Thanks for any help.

  8. Long ago, I had several dozen physical books of the Hero Games line, from 1st Edition through to 7th, I mean 6th (wishful thinking?). I didn't have every last book, but I estimate I had over 90% of them. Things change, life takes us in new directions, etc etc. For multiple reasons, I no longer have any of these books. And it's likely, at this late date, that there are some physical copies that don't exist anymore, at least not ones up for sale. Still, I have this idea that I want to collect as many of the physical books as I can. PDFs are okay, but don't quite match having the book in your hand. I'm sure I'll get some of the available PDFs as I go,…

  10. Does anyone remember the Champions Campaign Worksheet (or something like that) that allowed a GM to specify variables about the campaign like tone, realism, power level, and the like? I can't find my copy of it. I think it existed in third edition (maybe before that even). If you know where I can find it, or can post it below, that would be greatly appreciated.

  11. With the Hero Hexman Dice how would you know what is 1 and what is 2?

    Hi, I have a hard copy of "Enemies For Hire" for 4th Ed. (ISBN: 1-55806-277-0) and am looking for a PDF version of this book, as I'm often in a place where carrying lots of gaming books is somewhat awkward. If somebody could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it greatly. Tnx!

    So, I decided to buy the character creation deck but when I went to download the zip file I get a virus alert saying that I have malware or a virus on this file. Has this happened before, can I get a refund since I did buy it with the understanding that this wouldn't happen?

    In 2016, I was lead writer for Aaron Allston’s Strike Force. It is one of the highlights of my game writer career. I had hoped to be able to continue work in Aaron's world by developing something I wanted to call "Strike Force Organizations." And now, I can. Note: This product will be dedicated to Aaron (of course), but also Darren Watts, as when I first discussed this, he wanted to develop the section on the Circle.

    Hi, I just purchased some PDFs from the online store and I it was discovered with malware. Can anything be done about this?

  19. So I just recently purchased both the print copy and PDF of Shades of Black and I noticed that there is not HD Character pack for the adventure. If there was one somewhere it would very much a time saver for me. Does anyone know if I can find it somewhere else?

    I appreciate all the bundles that have been offered with Bundle of Holding, but is it possible that you could have bundles available on this site full time? Definitely doesn't have to be at the same discounted rate, but maybe say 10% off if you buy all the products in a specific edition at the same time. I'd buy that for a dollar! Thanks!

    Hello, I bought the Ground Vehicles and the Air Vehicles Character Packs (thinking they would be PDFs) and I downloaded the files fine (I think?) They appear ot be .HDC files for the most part. I cannot open the files. Googling the files it says I need to download something called HD Tach which is evidently a hard drive management reporting software?!? Anyways it says you need this program to open the files but every site that will let you download it appears to be either unsecure or weird looking. I tried going directly to the developer Simpli Software Inc. but their website appears defunct. How do you expect people that buy this p…

    So the description is a bit sparse for Heroes in a Hurry, and I'm wondering a few things... Is it basically templates for powers, skills, etc.? Is there anything there for the veteran player? What types of heroes can be made using it? Are there specific power types?
