Alkai Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 According to the online description of the Champions book, it states: "Champions is usable as a stand-alone product, but does not include the HERO System rules, only discussions of how to apply those rules. For the rules themselves, you'll need the HERO System 5th Edition core rulebook." This is slightly unclear... if Champions is usable as a stand-alone product, that would imply that you don't need the Hero core rulebook to play the game. Yet without the rules that are defined in the core rulebook, can you really play the game? What am I missing here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Serpent Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 Re: A little clarification please Heh. I think they meant as a superhero genre book, it's useable as a standalone. To make use of the sample characters, powers, etc. inside, you'll need "generic" HERO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkai Posted November 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 Re: A little clarification please Ahhh... that makes more sense. Thanks! I'm waiting until the revised 5th edition is released. Hopefully it'll be soon! I played Champions way back in the early 90's, and want to get my group involved with it again.
