Spence Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic Also not available to Americans if you don't use a standard email address. Any real world email is not accepted. I guess I can't complain since they are free and company can set any restriction they want. But it irritates me because the only reason to worry about whether an address is "authentic" for an kid safe item is marketing and the sale of your email to spammers.

fredrik_nilsson Posted November 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic The rest of us (I'm not from the US either) can buy them for $0.99 here: DriveThruRPG: Heroic Publishing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narratio Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic Bought mine as downloadable PDF's. (Bank account in California, billing address in England, mailling address in Thailand, ordered from Kazakhstan? You would not believe the hassles!)

Roter Baron Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic I wouldn't mind if Hero Games would publish them again in a condensed format - lick 5 issues in one compilation, a Best Of Champions or something. I would certainly buy 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vestnik Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic What exactly is a "standard email address"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic Apparently a "Standard E-mail Address" is the same as a "non-anonymous e-mail address". Which means an e-mail address that isn't from gmail, yahoo, hotmail or the like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredrik_nilsson Posted November 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic I wouldn't mind if Hero Games would publish them again in a condensed format I would rather buy a comic based on the new Champions edition. A real "wet dream" would be if some famous comics writer (like Neil Gaiman or Alan Moore) would create them. A side-effect could be an increased interest in the Champions Universe. How do you think it would end up? Which characters (both heroes and villains) would take the "front seat"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCUBA Hero Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic Public Service Announcement: The original six issues have Champions stats for various iconic characters! 1. Flare, Foxbat 2. Icestar, Morbanes 3. Giant, Demon Master 4. Rose, Malice 5. The Marksman 6. Doctor Arcane, Lady Arcane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Fyre Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic So... who would win in a fight' date=' this incarnation of the Champions or the current one? [/quote'] The current team. The current incarnation is based on 350 points. The incarnation that is in the book is based on the older 250 point scale. Also, Giant (that team's brick) is seriously underpowered - just look at his build (found in issue #3). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mancerbear Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Re: Champions the Comic Truely sucks that they're only available to residents of the US... ah well, we poor plebs from the rest of the world should be getting used to that by now.
