Sociotard Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Re: Superman English is Superman's native language. He learned Kryptonian after he learned the language of his adopted parents. That's a nitpick though. Good builds all around. Sure, they aren't nearly as powerful, but then Superman scale powers would be boring.

st barbara Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Re: Superman Superman can lift 100t Actually, at one time or another, Superman has lifted the entire planet Earth ! Using the"expanded strength table" in "The Ultimate Brick", that puts his strength well above 200 in "Champions" terms. If a strength of "200" enables one to lift a "small asteroid" then i'd say his strength was a (conservative) 400 + ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He originally was "stronger than a locamotive" (so I cannot spell) and has more recently had his strength (and invulnerability) toned down again. The Superman in the animated JLA and JLU is much more reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest steamteck Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Re: Superman Nice builds. I actually like the power levels. very close to the homages in my own campaigns as I mentioned before. varialbe SFX is a very elegant build indeed.

Adventures of Superman, via wikipedia Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound! ("Look! Up in the sky!" "It's a bird!" "It's a plane!" "It's Superman!")... Yes, it's Superman ... strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men! Superman ... who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands, and who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way!

assault Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Re: Superman GOOD LUCK on bats...I tried on 350 and was never happy with him As always, it depends on: which version of Batman, what the other characters in his world are like, and which elements of the character do you consider central. I have confidence in Cassandra's ability to get the character right, judging from her Superman and Wonder Woman builds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
