Building the Animated Justice League

Re: Building the Animated Justice League

 

I think I can help you out AngryBug,

 

Any advantages bought on HA's affect an equal amount of active points of STR for free. If you have a 5d6 HA (25 active points) and add Armor Piercing only to the HA active points:

 

[25 active *(+1.5 for AP)/(-1.5 for HA) = 25 real points]

 

you can use up to 25 STR and have a 10d6 AP punch but if you happen to have a higher STR you lose the AP advantage unless you buy it for the STR as well. I only really got this recently after Gary explained it to me as well.

 

HM

 

Hyperman has it right, except for one detail, you can limit yourself to the appropriate str (In his example 25) so if you had 30 Str you could still do a 10d6 AP attack

 

With the AF

 

Each punch is an 8d6

It would cost a total of 20 End as I understand it [5*(2 + 2)], However the rules for Str and AF confuse me at times, so it is possible that it would actualy be 12 (I beleive you are to charge for END on Str for each use of AF)

So with the HA bought to 0 END, the END cost would be 10 (5 shots x 2)?

Five 8d6 Strikes at 0 END?

Actually,

 

Reduced End is the lone exception to the rule regarding Advantaged HA's.

 

according to the FAQ:

http://www.herogames.com/SupportFAQs/rules/POWERS.htm

 

 

Q: Does a character who has Reduced Endurance (0 END) on his Hand-To-Hand Attack have to pay END for the STR he uses with it?

 

A: Yes.

JmOz,

Re: Building the Animated Justice League

 

JmOz, Im very impressed with these write-ups. I know that you occasionally had to "cut some corners" to get people in "on points" (as you mentioned with Batman), but overall the work is -really- impressive. I had been thinking of running a DC/WB campaign, myself, and while I had balked at the idea of having to write up the JLU.....youve really saved me alot of work, here

 

Seriously, thank you from all of us out in the Reffing trenches. This is exactly the kind of stuff that makes a thread like this a goldmine to come across!

 

*raises Dr. Pepper can*

 

I salute you!

[JmOz]

Re: Building the Animated Justice League

 

Thank you, I'm glad you like them. However in some ways it really was a team effect, many of the other posters here helped me to concrete my thinking on the characters.

 

Enjoy using them. By the way there is another thread around here where someone posted his version, but with out point caps...

Re: Building the Animated Justice League

 

I supply thanks as well ... I'll definitely be using these as a good basis for the Council of Seven (as it were). Many thanks.

My guess is the above is the result of when the boards changed to the new code. Is there a simple way to edit this to make it look right once again? I was thinking of doing having my group meet the animated JLA and would love to use these characters.

What intrigues me is just how many of the characters in the DC universe, unlike Marvel, are truly 'supernormals' no mutant powers, no Magic, no alien tech, just their own wits and skills:

 

Batman (I disagree with ANY writeup that gives Bats any stats over 20)

Huntress

Batman (I disagree with ANY writeup that gives Bats any stats over 20)

 

This is one of our most done to death subjects, incidentally.

 

Basically, there is a long history of characteristic inflation in Champions. Batman's characteristics need to rate him correctly relative to other characters, and allow him to behave in the way he does in the source material.

 

Of course, then you have to choose which source material you are using! (My personal benchmark tends to be early Silver Age, since it was an interesting period, and lots of stuff is available in cheap reprint editions.)

 

If you do go with "no stats over 20", then you need to make sure that all the other characters are built such that they don't have higher stats that aren't justified. After all, Bats is faster, smarter and stronger than most "superhumans", apart from those that specifically have super-speed, super-intelligence and super-strength.

 

Personally, I don't bother with this limit, and actually prohibit the Normal Character Maxima disadvantage in order to discourage this kind of argument.

 

Characters should have what they need to function as they should in the particular campaign they are in. The 20 limit might work in some cases, but is inadequate in others.

Stat inflation is a myth

Re: Building the Animated Justice League

 

What intrigues me is just how many of the characters in the DC universe, unlike Marvel, are truly 'supernormals' no mutant powers, no Magic, no alien tech, just their own wits and skills:

 

Batman (I disagree with ANY writeup that gives Bats any stats over 20)

Huntress

Question

Green Arrow

Vigilante

Wildcat

 

and arguably

Shining Knight

Star Girl

NCM is not the max of human potential, never was ment to be, it is the point of diminishing gains, and that is as written,
