HeroGM 370 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 IYHO what is the best way to add options both "choose x points of following list" or "Newspaper boy gets xxxx skills and perks" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simon 1,050 Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Fixed abilities (e.g. all newspaper boys get TF: bicycles) just purchase and save the character data as a template. select x of the following list is best handled by naming a list just that and saving as a prefab. Have that prefab loaded and saved with the character template. This character gets X skills (general rule) is something you’d either need to communicate as a gm or setup with point limits under the campaign rules. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HeroGM 370 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Yeah I was looking at some of the store brought templates and it seems to bounce around different ways and a few I'm trying to figure out how to do and make sense (policeman and plucky orphan from Golden Age 6e) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Both it's greatest strength and greatest weakness. You probably already know this, but I just wanted to pop in and mention that while Hero Designer is written to follow the rules as written, it has a powerful and easy to use way to build custom everything. If you find you can't quite get something just the way you want, you can build that in as a custom item. I'm always impressed in how easy it is to build in a house-rule, even for someone like me.

HeroGM 370 Posted November 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 I have most of this and the policeman done. Tring to figure out the best way to do the options for it and some of the other packages as well. i had to go with a custom Disad/complication since Wealth/Money isn't listed in the Complications tab and Destitute/Poor didn't appear to be in the Money section under Perks.

HeroGM 370 Posted November 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 It's a screen capture. Outside of the options (I'd cut/paste that in) I could do it with an export template and the proper font. ibenny 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
