JLA animated series

[Kzinbane]

JLA animated is on every weekday evening now for an hour around here. Been watching it and got thinking - ya know, I think just about all if not many of the characters could almost be built at or not too far over 350 points!

I mean even Superman gets knocked around badly (though his main power seems to be can't be hurt = damage reduction perhaps). GL's ring only really protects when he see's the attack, a simple rock or something coming at him unknown (or shrapnel from an explosion) can knock him out. Flash, Wonder woman, Batman... all are lower powered copies of their comic versions - Martian Manhunter too for that matter.

So has anyone given a shot at putting the JLA AS Superman down on HERO paper? Others?

A short while ago Chromatic wrote up all of the characters. It doesn't look like he limited any of the points, so they lay where they fall for his approximation of the powers:

And a longer while ago there was a bit done on this thread:

And JmOz did build some of the characters on 350 points. That thread does not contain all the characters (this page has Superman a few posts down):

I know John Desmaris (sp?) has them, and I think the Teen Titans done up as well.

I doubt it.

 

Animated Batman wouldn't really be any cheaper than normal Batman. While they are all weaker than comic incarnation ( except Hawkgirl ), they aren't *that* much weaker. Superman is still capable of lifting a cruise liner out of the water, for instance.

Sort of. I wrote them up for use in demo games.

 

For the Justice League all of the names have been changed - and some non-critical background items - to reduce the chances of having a "but Superman should be able to do this" discussion with players, but they are all 200 base plus disads.

 

For the Titans I stayed close to the source material as they are for use with young gamers who generally relate better to "you're playing Robin" than "you're playing a character who's like Robin but different".
