JmOz Posted May 24, 2003 Report Share Posted May 24, 2003 Has there been a package deal for a "Soldier" yet (Modern day prefered) and if so where? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fry Daddy Posted May 25, 2003 Report Share Posted May 25, 2003 I haven't seen one in 5th Ed. yet but there is one in the Dark Champions supplement Eye For An Eye that I have converted over. I can send it to you if you'd like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XavierWyldefyre Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Re: Package Deal They put all the 4th Ed Dark Champions stuff (at least all the nice chewy bits like the Soldier packages) into the 5th Ed Dark Champions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also find them in the HD Vault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillitu Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Something I was thinking of is if there is a way to simulate MOS packages alongside the basic Soldier Package? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Of course. Just write up the Skills that would go in that particular package.

psyber624 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 One thing to remember is that "Package Deals" are basically just a suggested guideline of the types of skills/abilities a specific type of character might take in many situations. In others (most notably in Racial Package Deals) they may be more mandatory but at the end of the day they are still just a list of powers and abilities you HAVE to buy in that case. So if you want to create package deals for your games its as easy as writing up a list of SUGGESTED or MANDATORY abilities and pointing them out so that your player characters have a quick "cheat sheet" method of spending some of their points. In most cases the "Deal" part of package Deals is a misnomer as they don't change the cost of the abilities or make them any cheaper (although in some cases the costs may be offset by Disadvantages). Of course it is up to you if you want Package Deals to be cheaper or not, but generally in HERO published materials they aren't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disadvantages don't actually offset the cost, they just count towards your total Disads/Complications. That's part of why in 6E they started using the phrase Template instead of Package Deal, people kept misinterpreting it tegardless of how many times it was soelled out.
