Here's our back-cover text describing Scourges Of The Galaxy: SCUM AND VILLAINY Every great hero needs an equally great villain as his nemesis.

Here's the flyer I cooked up for Hero Games for GenCon. Over on Twitter, some folks were asking me what 6th Edition looked like, and the flyer has a few page "thumbnails" on one side of it: http://drivingblind.livejournal.com/452505.html

I'd like to put it out there that you set a standard format for all Hero books. And by that I mean a fairly consistant layout of chapters. I always hate having to go to the index or table of contents to lookup where something is in this book or that book. I find it is easier if I know that chapter 8 will contain villians or chapter 4 will have powers. I know that some books will not lend to this but at least common among a series, say the ultimates or the like.

Hi, I was wondering if there are anymore Ultimate series books for the superhero archetypes planned before 6th ED? (such as Gadgeteer, Patriot, Power Armor, and Weapon Master none of which exist as far as I know, though I guess Gadgeteer is somewhat covered by Gadgets and Gear, and Weapon Master is mostly covered by UMA)

Hi. I will soon be running at least one module in a play-by-post game on Hero Central, and I'm looking for advice/permission/whatever for posting maps and other handouts designed for player viewing. I know nothing relevant about copyrights. So: Can I post such stuff w/in the campaign threads? If so, do I need to include some kind of statement? Do I need explicit permission first, and how would I get it? If none of that will work or it will be too cumbersome, what about just emailing it to the players? Thanks.

Greetings All, Will the Champions Universe simply be updated to the new rules of 6th Ed, or will there be a new Champions Universe (such as the dramatic change from 4th to 5th Ed)?

Just thought I'd point this out - this book must be getting collectable: on Amazon UK the core rule book costs nearly £100 sterling, or about £150 US. Scary.

In a world of superhumans, dozens of companies, interest groups, and conspiracies exist to help, hinder, or exploit them, or to give ordinary people a way to cope with them. In Cops, Crews, And Cabals you can find out about nearly a dozen of these groups: —Angelstone Laboratories, a scientific organization and think tank whose work and interests often intersect with the Superhuman World —Bastion Alpha Security, a “security” organization …

Do the 2 books on Traveler Hero include the setting information, what I am refering to is what some players like to call "Fluff". (I hate this term as I feel that it is more important than the mechanics)

Hi, So I was going through my library of Champions stuff and I noticed my rather dog-eared Golden Age Champions book for 4th edition. So it got me to wonder if there is going to be a Champions Genre book for the Golden Age. I particularly liked the Golden age myself and I would love to see this. So am I just wishing and hoping or what?
