Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

[Enforcer84]

all kidding aside, I got some nice "Fighter" write ups in the first thread. And a few of you already did this, but I'd like to pick more brains this time. So I will be more specific.

 

This is for a higher powered campaign, this is a japaneserpg/Final Fantasy style campaign. See the link to my Edean Thread in my sig for some specifics if you've never been there. One of the features of these games is that each character has their own style/abilties even though you might have 4 or 5 "Fighters" in your party one may be an Archer, one a Spearman, one uses two short swords, one uses a Gigantic Greatsword and one guy has a slingshot. Each weapon has it's own style and special abilities. I'm looking for some cool specials that might be specific to a particular weapon. I know there is some overlap but I thought I'd pick your brains for somethings I haven't thought of.

 

Any takers?

To get the ball rolling, here's my Spear Skills, so far anyway.

 

 

Cos Powers END

6 Ha-ha! A mere Scratch!: Combat Luck (3 PD/3 ED)

10 Swashbuckler's Luck: Luck 2d6

Notes: This is the ability to not only harm one's enemy with your strikes but also to damage his armor. Alternately this could be bought as a Killing Attack that only affects the Armor.

11 2) Cyclone Strike: Area Of Effect (up to One Hex; +1/2), Selective (+1/4) for up to 30 Active Points of Spear Damage (22 Active Points); OIF (Spear or Polearm of opporotunity; -1/2), Requires A Spear Miracles Skill Roll (-1/2) 2

Notes: The Spear Saint spins around and attacks each enemy within his reach.

24 3) Divine Whirlwind: RKA 2d6, Area Of Effect (7" Cone; +1) (60 Active Points); No Range (-1/2), OIF (Spear or Polearm of opportunity; -1/2), Requires A Spear Miracles Skill Roll (-1/2) 6

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Well, you already have my Giant Sword Attacks write up from before, if not I can post it again. Here's some Short Sword/Knife Fighting Techniques I was working on for an NPC:

 

23 Assassin Training: Multipower (45 Active Points); All Powers OIF (Short bladed weapon of opportunity, no larger than a short sword, -3/4), No Range (-1/4), Requires a Skill Roll (Assassin Training, -1/2) (15 points).

 

1u Choke Hold: Suppress STR 8d6; Common Lims (-1 1/2), Must Strike From Behind (-1), Must successfully Grapple Target (-1)

 

2u Hamstring: Drain Running 2d6 (20 Active Points); Common Lims (-2) plus Drain Leaping 2d6 (20 Active Points); Common Lims (-2)

 

1u Throat Crush: Darkness (Speech), Uncontrolled (+1/2), Reduced END (+1/4); Common Lims (-1 1/2), Area of Effect (Accurate, -0)

 

2u Spray of Blood: HKA 3d6; Common Lims (-1 1/2), Gradual Effect (3 minutes, -1/2)

 

2u Shards of Glass: HKA 1d6, AoE One Hex Doubled (+3/4), Personal Immunity (+1/4) (30 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/2) (12 points) plus Flash: Sight Group 3d6 (15 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/2) (7 points) Total cost: 17 points

 

2u Penetrating Blade: HKA 1d6+1, Penetrating (+1/2), AoE Accurate (+1/2) (40 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/2) (16 points)

 

I could go on, but you get the general idea. The idea here was that a group of knife-fighting techniques would be interesting (and easy) to model in HERO, so I set about doing it. Worked, I was happy with it. Others I haven't done yet are Overreach (+1" Stretching, only for making attacks) and the classic 'head wound' (HKA 1/2d6 PLUS Sight Flash 3d6, SFX: blood spilling into the eyes).

 

I can post others later if you like. Or shut up.

[Markdoc]

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Thia, as I a GM, I wouldn't go for "flash speech" since speech is not a sense. However, I would allow (and have used) Darkness vs sound, only to negate voice of target (-1) for a throat grab, that's cheaper and allows you to add in a few d6 of NND HA to simulate strangling.

 

cheers, Mark

[Manic Typist]

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

What are Common Lims (-2)?

 

Also, Thia- I think it would be better to put on a "Delayed Effect" or something onto the chokehold, since a person can initially use all of their STR. As time passes though, and they burn through their oxygen.... I can see them begining to lose their strength, especially since they are burning END and not getting a Recovery.

[Thia Halmades]

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Markdoc: I wasn't sure if it was Flash or Darkness; I will change it to Darkness (Speech), but I preferred Flash since it takes care of its own duration, similarly to Drain. Darkness I believe costs END to maintain, which would mean for it to work the way I want, it would be uncontrolled. Flash is simpler & easier. However, checking the rules Mark, I find you are exactly correct.

 

So.

 

1u Throat Crush: Darkness (Speech), Uncontrolled (+1/2), Reduced END (1/2 END, +1/4); Area of Effect (One Hex, Accurate -0), Common Lims (-2) [1 END]

 

Is that a bit closer to accurate? While we're on the topic, if I could get a ruling here - Darkness starts off its life as filling One Hex. According to the rules on AOE, I can make it accurate for a -0 Limitation; in other words, it becomes 'Accurate' for free instead of filling a hex. Does that seem right to everyone else?

 

Also, MT, in answer to your question, the point of the choke hold is that it's a STR Suppress that acts on a nerve basis; instead of Delayed Effect I used RSR; once he gets his arms around you and is crushing your wind pipe, you're rendered immobile. This is done largely to simulate the special effect seen in films, where the SpecOp agent steps up behind someone (for example, Sam Fisher does this in Splinter Cell) and they have no chance to retaliate; they're trapped there. I've done this by making it a Suppress: STR.

 

Second question: instead of writing out all the limitations to all the powers every time - All Powers OIF (Short bladed weapon of opportunity, no larger than a short sword, -3/4), No Range (-1/4), Requires a Skill Roll (Assassin Training, -1/2) - I used 'Common Lims' which is acceptable in a write up. "Common Lims," shorthand for "Common Limitations" means that I have applied all the limitations from the Multi-Power, by rule, to all powers WITHIN the multi-power. So every time you see an ability, it's marked by "Common Lims, (-2)" which is the net cost of the limitations used.

 

Except I did my math wrong, and it should be -1 1/2. Which is probably what you were asking Pardon I must edit.

 

I also need to build the Martial Art that goes with this.

Not just right, but a damn fine idea!

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Looks good! And almost exactly what I was looking for!

 

 

Anyone have Special Attacks for a guy with a big club or warhammer?

How about twin swords of equal length?

Lisa Nazdy(sp?) had some nice Archer Powers.

[Thia Halmades]

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Try the following:

 

Warhammer Style (Multipower, 60 Active Points (27 points); No Range (-1/4), All Attacks OIF (Heavy Clubs, -1). 41 total points.

 

2u Power Attack: HKA 2d6, Indirect (Overhead Swing, +1/4), +1 STUN Multiplier (+1/4); Common Lims (-1 1/4)

 

2u Spin Dizzy: HKA 1d6+1 (20 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/4) (9 points) plus Change Environment (-4 DCV) (20 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/4), Accurate (-0), Must Deal at least one point of BODY Damage to invoke Change Environment (-1/2) (7 points)

 

2u Line Drive: HKA 2d6, Double Knockback (+3/4) (53 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/4)

 

2u Ground Breaker: (Change Environment, -4 DCV), AOE Line +1 (40 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/4)

 

3u Circling Strike: HKA 2d6, One Hex Doubled (+3/4), Personal Immunity (+1/4) (60 Active Points); Common Lims (-1 1/4)

 

3u Overreach: HKA 2d6, +1" Stretching (+1); Common Lims (-1 1/4)

If it's based on a nerve, then I can buy it. Just getting someone's windpipe.... well, I still think they would have some time before they suffered a reduced performance from lack of oxygen. But, if the SFX is a nerve instead, I've no problems.

 

Second: No, actually, your first explanation was what I was looking for. See, I've never worked with Multipowers. Thank you for the explanation, and the overestimation of my abilities.... hehe.

[Thia Halmades]

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Oh. Well... I owe you rep anyway, you get to be the Unintentional Muse. Anyway, point being. If you look up the general rules of the framework (and any I post) you'll see the total lims for the whole framework, and then in the individual powers may have additional limitations as well (requires extra END, extra time, side effects, etc.).

I am at work right now and can not provide a detailed write up, but how about an EB with OIF (Rocks & Stones), Restrainable or Requires Two Hands, Maybe even throw in Full Phase for picking up a rock and hitting it like a baseball at an opponent?

Well, then--lemme look into expanding on the Lasher with more abilities. Similarilly, I haven't gotten an opportunity to do a Master of Chains package yet. Lemme work it out a little, Nucleon's challenge is more interesting right now...

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Here's a two sword fighting style I just came up with. I'm thinking of someone who's really quick wielding the blades:

 

Cost

 

Powers

41

Dual Sword Tricks: Multipower, 61-point reserve, (61 Active Points); all slots OIF (Two Swords; -1/2)

1u

1) Blade Shield: Force Field (20 PD/20 ED) (40 Active Points); Wielder can't attack while this is on (-1), Increased Endurance Cost (x2 END; -1/2) Note: The wielder spins their blades in a circular motion rapidly, helping to deflect incoming attacks and even spells.

3u

2) Whirling Blades: Killing Attack - Hand-To-Hand 2d6 (2d6+1 w/STR), Area Of Effect (3" Radius; +1) (60 Active Points); Concentration (1/2 DCV; -1/4) Note: The wielder spins about wildly with their blades out, hitting everyone nearby.

4u

3) Head Clap: (Total: 56 Active Cost, 37 Real Cost) Hearing Group Flash 6d6, No Normal Defense (Helmet or ear protection; +1) (36 Active Points) (Real Cost: 24) plus Energy Blast 2d6, No Normal Defense (Helmet or ear protection; +1) (20 Active Points) (Real Cost: 13) Note: The wielder hits their opponent in the ears using the flats of both blades, causing deafness and/or stunning for a short time. This is negated with a rigid helmet.

1u

4) Helicopter Blades: Gliding 5" (5 Active Points); Only to slow falling (-1/2) Note: The wielder spins their blades above their head to act like the blades of a helicopter and slow their descent.

3u

5) Blade Grab: Suppress HKA or HA 12d6 (60 Active Points); No Range (-1/2), Concentration (1/2 DCV; -1/4) Note: Using both blades, the wielder can effectively disable an opponent's weapon by grabbing it safely with their swords.

2u

6) Turbo Shovelling: Tunneling 12" through 12 DEF material (60 Active Points); Increased Endurance Cost (x3 END; -1) Note: The wielder of the blades can strike at a material so fast that they can cut through nearly anything and make an escape route, but it's very tiring.

3u

7) Whirling Blades: Killing Attack - Ranged 2d6+1, Area Of Effect (8" Cone; +1), Two-Dimensional (-1/4) (61 Active Points); Requires A Dual Sword Mastery Roll (-1/2), Side Effects (A failed skill roll means the wielder takes half the damage of the attack; -1/4) Note: The wielder throws their blades, spinning rapidly, in two arcs that return like boomerangs back to the wielder. A failed skill roll means the wielder takes half the damage.

[Manic Typist]

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Erken.... what sort of campaign or power level do you recommend those moves for?

 

Some of it I like... but some of it seems quite.... out of genre, I suppose. Unless we are talking "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Munchkin."

 

They are all neat, and some I love, but some... just scare me as to what they would do to the "feel" of certain games.

That's a damn cool figure - did you paint that?

 

Cheers, Mark

Re: Build Me a Fighter, Advanced Class.

 

Erken.... what sort of campaign or power level do you recommend those moves for?

 

Some of it I like... but some of it seems quite.... out of genre, I suppose. Unless we are talking "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Munchkin."

 

They are all neat, and some I love, but some... just scare me as to what they would do to the "feel" of certain games.

 

As a GM, I'd be a bit dubious about the helicopter and turbo shovel maneuvers (though they wouldn't be out of place in a high powered Wuxia campaign) but the rest of it is pretty cool. I'd also allow "requires two hands ( -1/4)" on the reserves/slots, since that's a significant disadvantage.

 

cheers, Mark
