SirViss Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 Re: Champs Worldwide: Whaddya want? ... Also keep in mind that the CU was written after 9/11 and there is no mention of terrorist attacks on the WTC/Pentagon or a war in Afghanistan or Iraq. Actually, I just want to point out that there is a very small (tiny) mention of 9/11 in Millenium City, p.35 under Airports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although frankly this isn't really "my problem" in that I don't use CU, though I just think it would be interesting to those who do. I am looking forward to the book, regardless, as a general resource/idea-generator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, I do follow the CU and still miss plenty of things. Those DOJ guys like to hide everything on us deep within the bowels of the books.

Either 'no stats at all' or showing us what these characters were like in different CU eras... describing their underlings and superhuman flunkies... Home bases and vehicles... the mind boggles.

Anyone else who'd want to see something like that? I would think that of any one Dr. Destroyer has the most to offer in the way of a complete book. We could have dozens of droid writeups or better yet a random droid generator, two of his bases, and several plots written as mini adventures to port in to campaigns. Dr. Destroyer having to share a Megavillian book would skimp a bit too much on his majesty for my tastes. Hawksmoor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Re: Champs Worldwide: Whaddya want? I guess there would be legal problems if the book had a picture of an angry Dr. D. on the cover yelling "DESTROY!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess there would be legal problems if the book had a picture of an angry Dr. D. on the cover yelling "DESTROY!" I read that as lemming had a copy, that's a great comic! Anyone unfamiliar, I highly recommend it...especially if you like literate stories with great character development and just detest all that godawful action crap and ESPECIALLY if you hate power gamers and "roll players"... (it is a great book, but before anyone is misled, it's a very tongue-in-cheek over-the-top violent (but not in any gory Iron Age way, more like a sanitized Silver Age one) super-battle book with a good but limited story) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karma Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Re: Champs Worldwide: Whaddya want? Australians and New Zealanders. Heck they *should* get their own book (Champions Down Under anyone?) but if not they should at least be included in the cast (since all the characters who used to be Australians in 4E have either disappeared (Seeker (year I know he was a loser, but he was an Aussie loser and we tend to like our losers) or had their history rewritten to make the Americans (Deuce of PSI, who was originally from Sydney) for 5E).
