No I had not forgoten about this project, but I got stuck on the metamorph, then I realised the character I had called my Power Armor Character (Tar) was actualy a metamorph in many ways, so I decided to make a new PA character.

 

So here is Warbird, the background is fairly simple, Former military turned civilian Test Pilot for the goverment, is currently testing the WARBIRD armor (Acroynm needed) in the field for SAT or PRIMUS. The idea behind the armor is kind of an American Rocket Red Brigade, so it is being tested vs SUper villains in campeign city, especialy vs Viper

Re: Project 275 Power Armor Hero: Warbird for review

 

Well I had to get myself a bit dirty in the "power Gaming Mud Pool"

 

I had forgotten the team package, and like I said I wanted WARBIRD to be a bit faster, I also really liked the idea that s/he was better in vehicles than on land, so did a funny little thing, I think I saw in TUV of limiting Dex/Speed to when using a vehicle, including his armor, I reduced it to a -1/4 lim instead of a -1/2 as the commmonality of being in armor, I further limited it to air vehicles only, but still allowing it for the armor.

 

I also limited the armor to a fuel requirement, again per TuV, gave it a -1/4 again. This is a minor limitation that I can see whole stories based around, I figure it will come up everyonce in a while but for the whole session.

 

Well Here it is

I'm thinking of playing to give the MP two more slots, one that will add CON, the other a chameleon based Invis for Sight and hearing...

Weapon, Aerial: Bio-Integrated Response Device....

How's that for an acronym?

 

Repped for reading my mind!

 

I like the BIRD part, not happy with the WAR, but repping you both for it

Re: Project 275 Power Armor Hero: Warbird for review

 

I like the write-up for your WARBIRD armor, the only things I would change are:

1) If it's experimental armor and still being tested alot of the powers would have Activation Roll with either Jammed or Burn-Out (got to play with some new toys in the military that seemed to either go wonky or break for no reason)...

2) The Invisibility would mostly be Sight (Chameleon effect)/Hearing (it's quiet when staying put)/Radar (new Stealth-composites) with the Chameleon limitation and a fringe (it is experimental)... Possibly give it a few charges of limited duration...

3) Link an Invisibility: Radio Group to your HRRP to simulate encrypted transmissions, it’s fringe would be static on the frequency you’re currently transmitting on.

4) Extended Breathing instead of Self-Contained to simulate an attached air supply…

5)And a test pilot really needs Luck… Or a good HMO…

But that's just my personal preferences...

Great job by the way :thumbup:

Thank you for the imput, let me answer with my reasonings

 

1) the idea of activation/burnout/jammed does make a lot of sense, but I find in play that those limitations slow things down alot, so I tend to avoid them, also for an ease of use factor

 

2) The invisibility represents a stealth functioning, reduction of EM emissions and such, more than anything else, but I like the chameleon effect Idea, and am working on getting it in...

 

3) I plan on using the cryptography skill to represent encryption, thus the +3 the suit gives

 

4) Thought of giving it a fuel charge, but desided easy over accurate

 

5) Amusing

 

I really do like the idea of the invisibility, playing with the points to get it and a couple of other skills I want on him

Re: Project 275 Power Armor Hero: Warbird for review

 

So getting slowly back to work on the 275 point project

 

I was thinking about WARBIRD here and I am wondering how Archtypical (is that a word) it is for a Power Armor Character to have multiple weapon systems. I know it is common, but that is not the same thing, rather does it seem like a PA character is lacking something for not having multiple weapons

 

As these are suppose to be low powered heroes, and for that matter easy to use, I am questioning wether or not it would be better to make it a single weapon system (blasters)

 

Also, another issue I am having right now is that to some degree these characters are suppose to be a group of characters that can cross between Dark Champions type games and more traditional Champions, as such the blasters may be a bit to much, maybe replacing them with some AF EB Rubber bullets may be better...

 

Thoughts please

Re: Project 275 Power Armor Hero: Warbird for review

 

With the new guidelines, I have reworked WARBIRD, I also wanted to make the character a little easier to play for a new player, so cut some of the weapon systems and some of the more complex elements. I do still have a 3 power multipower, the idea is that each item in the MP is extra energy being channeled into the system to overcharge them. Right now the burnout only effects the system it burns out, If I understand the rules correctly this is bending it a little. As imagined if the roll fails on EB then the entire blaster (Including the 8d6) is burned out. If I understand the rules right it should burn out the entire Aux power system, but not the core systems, I consider this kind of a wash, actualy I think it is more severe, but ohh well

Re: Project 275 Power Armor Hero: Warbird for review

 

First good build' date=' very nice. [insert jealousy here']

 

I would reduce the attack types to two, if quick and easy was a goal. Too many choices could slow down play, or overwhelm a new player as they tried to configure the "right" attack.

 

Basicaly what I did, Punch, or Blast, nice and simple

 

Droped the RKA, I like the other version, think I will upgrade to a "will play eventualy" 350 point character...But for the 275 intro player project I like the simplicity of it.

 

ohh the guidelines are as follows

 

275 Point Guidelines

Base Points: 175

Disads: 100

Max Disad: 50

Total points: 250

 

Char: 10-30

Spd: 3-7

CV: 5-10

DC: 6-11

AP : 40-75

Skill Points: 45-120

Skill Rolls: (8-) - (15-)

Def: 10-20

rDef: 5-10

 

NCM is a campeign guideling, but characters may use the "defenders exploit". Characteristics bought as powers do not require modifiers to be applied. This includes movement powers

 

Secret ID and Martial Arts are highly recomended

 

Characters do not get any everyman skills, the base points have been modified for this (Buy what you got)

 

Powers that will make it hard to run a mystery are not appropriate...

Re: Project 275 Power Armor Hero: Warbird for review

 

current build adds a MA package, helps for the out of suit moments, the Side effect is the suit breaking down if the system is over taxed

 

Each system will basicaly have a burnout 15- when used with the extra boost ability, if it fails the system (the whole system) burns out, if the roll is an 18 it is a catastrophic failure and all of the powered systems break down

Re: Project 275 Power Armor Hero: Warbird for review

 

Both build look great. Again, as usual. The second build looks more like 4e Defender- that is, he would be useful in or out of the suit. I like the first build better since it's simpler and more focused. But again, both are excellent and both will do. Perhaps you ought to include both in the grab bag?
