Throwing Characters around

[GrooveD70]

Sorry if Someone answered this already but Im a little stumped in my Champions game.

I have a character that would like to use his TK to grab another character and throw him/her into another character. Though this seemed simple at first I found myself with a lot of questions.

What maneuvers are required? Grab and Martial throw?

 

When, if at all, would the opponent be able to resist the grab?

 

Would the thrown character work like an object on the STR table as far as distance thrown?

 

How would you calculate damage for the thrown character and the character he/she was thrown into?

 

Can the attacker Move, Grab and throw in the same phase?

 

Thanks for your time and all the great Hero products!

Re: Throwing Characters around

 

The rules for Grabbing with Telekinesis are on 5E 147, as are the rules for throwing with TK.

 

There are some rules for using other characters as weapons on page 153 of Champions; those rules are also in The Ultimate Brick but I haven't gotten my copies yet so I can't give you a page cite.

 

The rules for damage done with thrown objects are in the Rules FAQ under "Strength," and they're in The Ultimate Brick as well.

 

If all that doesn't resolve the issue for you, please post a follow-up.
