RPMiller Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 I'm wondering if it is possible to create a power that gives you extra phases with an activation roll? I'm thinking of a potion, sword, item that will grant an extra attack on a roll of 11 or less or some such. What do you all think? Any ideas? Is it possible in the rules framework?

TheEmerged Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 Third of Three Sure, buy extra SPD and give it the limitation you want (Activation 11- for the second example). Be warned that SPD can only change "between turns" so to speak. There is no "extra attack" concept in HERO -- you need extra phases, or the Autofire advantage. A power like this should only be possible in a Power Framework if it costs END. Finally, it's not usually a good idea to cross-post. That just difuses the answers you'll get.

Vondy Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 I would buy: +2 Speed, Activate 11- (-1), Cost: 10 I would then rule (for simplicities sake) that the character is speed X, but that two of their phases may or may not activate. I would declare what those two phases were: I.E. (presumes character, which extra speed, is speed 6): 2. Act 4. Act 6. Roll 8. Act 10. Roll 12. Act Then you don't have to worry about changing speed. I forgot, it needs Usable By Others, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Shrike Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 If its just an extra attack, dont do it as SPEED, do it as either a naked Autofire x2 (or 3 or whatever) applicable to any HKA or HA of up to X AP, Act 11- Alternately allow Rapid Fire (HtH) and/or Two Weapon Fighting (HtH) as a Power, Act 11- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Shrike Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 You could also do it as Skill Levels only for Sweep Act 11- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
