Hello. I would really, really like to buy the Hero Designer, but I can't use the Store because I do not have any of the cards required. I have PayPal and would even be willing to make Advance Payment, but the System requires me to have a Credit Card or I can't even order. I have neither of teh cards and have no idea what monthly/anual fees they entail. I usually get my pdf's from DriveThru RPG (since they accept paypal), but the Hero Designer is the single thing they have not. So, what ways do I have to buy the Hero Designer? I prefer those that do not include any fees (beyond what is needed for the Designer, Payment and Shiping, if somehow nessesary).

Is there a plan to reproduce the Hero Dice? I see them everywhere as "out of stock" items. I'm planning on playing Champions since I last played (1st Edition ...long ago) and I'm searching for dice to go with my campaign.

I just came from my local gaming store. I offered them some demos of hero, but they turned me down. They did not want demos of stuff they cannot get into the store. This has been very upsetting to me as it's been an issue since they opened in October. I know the owner personally, so I know this isn't misleading or a dodge... Is there a way that this stor can get direct supply? It is the only gaming store in the entire new Orleans area, and I would like to see a thriving hero community here... But if they can't get the books at home, it is unlikely to be the case.

I got mine today, and I have to say, I was a bit disappointed... Not by the content at all... I love what I got...however, the quality was not up to the standards I have been used to. I am a bit of s perfectionist and have very high expectations... And these have always been met by the heero books... So my stuff may seem nitpicky, but here it is... 1) the pages that are almost full black are blotchy... The black is not a high quality print and it shows. 2) on those pages, the bleed was set near the edge, but not off it, so there is a border of white... And that border is not square with the page and is uneven all the way around. 3) every page that has …

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!

Throughout the Kingdom of Beilean and, in fact, throughout many lands, there are a group of individuals whose entire life is spent in constant battle for the enjoyment of an audience. These people can range from criminals who fight for their innocence, champions who fight in the stead of their employer, slaves who kill and maim to stay alive and entertain their masters, to brawlers and street fighters who pummel each other in taverns and local faires for a few coins or just the joy of a good fight.
