Corven_Ren Posted March 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Thank you I downloaded the lists but they dont mention Group names....I needed a group to help complete the origin of one of my heroes that I will probably post on the board for critisim at a later date.

Redmenace Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Cool, I have a Tiger squad defector of my own, White Crane. Looking forward to seeing what you've got. Before I forget, in 5th edition the standard points for starting heroes is 350. If you use the previous standard of 250 you may want to state that in your post.

Lord Liaden Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 The to-date named members of the Tiger Squad are on p. 4 of the "Champions Universe Superheroes" .pdf file. The team itself has over 50 members, making it the largest in the world. The group is split into "field teams" of four to seven members, each assigned to a particular city or area. There are some government-independent superheroes operating within China, although the government treats them as criminals. (These details and more are in Champions Universe.) The excellent 4E supplement Watchers of the Dragon has writeups for four members of the Tiger Squad: Gossamer Storm (sorceress), Earthquake Fist (semi-brick with vibration powers), Luan (martial artist), and Quicksilver (speedster). Another member, Summer Cloud, is apparently a wind manipulator; she has an illustration and brief verbal description on pp. 14-15 of the UNTIL Superpowers Database.

lemming Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 I posted this group not that long ago The People's Republican Guard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 FWIW I expanded the ranks of the Tiger Squad by adapting the Chinese supervillain group Ying from the Champs/Dark Champs book Murderers Row. Ying was supposed to work as an impartial enforcement group employed by all the Triads, but that didn't seem to fit the way the Triads are supposed to operate. To me the backgrounds of most of the characters made it more likely that they would have been recruited by the PRC anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enforcer84 Posted March 3, 2004 Report Share Posted March 3, 2004 No I think he's confused the threads.
