Christopher Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 Re: Super Transportation I guess it has likely already been posted, but anyway the "Bartini A-57". A bomber designed to land and be refueled/rearmed on water. And with that design, adding space-capabilities for your version isn't that far fetched: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bartini_A-57 www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FMjPgWOQdw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 Re: Super Transportation For the hero who can't afford the above: [...] There are variants that use superpowers in the soruce-material. Especially the Aniem one pices was strong with that: The electricity user Enel had a flying ship mayde mostly of gold, that somehow used his electricity powers to fly (but very little beyond starting it). Captain Smoker was a Smoke-EP (not as lame as it sounds). And his bike (smoke cycle?) even used the smoke from his feet to move. Then there is Ace, a Fire-EP and his personal ship (begins at 20 seconds) And then there is this ice-guy that drives his completely normal bicycle over the ocean - on a small patch of frozen sea.

wcw43921 Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Re: Super Transportation Looks like a Dynamaxion motor home. Nice. I like the idea of a flying bridge--but what happens if it rains? It doesn't look like it could be covered up easily, and any tarp could be torn off driving at highway speeds, or by any strong wind. Still, it's a nifty work of art. I'm impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing you do in a boat with a flying bridge. You drive it from the inside. It does look spiffy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had an autopilot (No END Persistent on Flight), and is armed with 16 Batmissiles, and has a ECM suit (DEX +12 that gives Batman OCV 10 DCV 5 with the OIF Bulky).

Martin2 Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Re: Super Transportation OK here is my current teamp super transport. Doesn't look very super? This is the stealth option. In this mode it looks like any White SUV you may see on most highways. But imagine you are travelling down the highway in your normal white SUV and up front you have a whole highway of red break lights coming on and you have to step on the break! And this very similar white SUV next to you suddenly changes. Flashing lights suddenly rise out of the roof. The plain white side and bonnet has the logo of UNTIL and the local super hero group on it (~Disguise skill with options for different logo's and number plates). Then a small hatch appears on the roof and out crawls a small dragon who waves at you and also flashes different colours to attract even more attention (shape changing hero with chamelion powers). This small dragon starts to flap its wings and you think this small creature could never lift a several ton SUV. Then in an instance the small dragon becomes a giant blue dragon who then lifts the SUV from the ground and accelerates at high speed over the now slowing trafic, breathing out a cone of fire and roaring as she does it just to catch the attention of everyone else in the traffic jam. While this is happening the window on the SUV is wound down and the other members of the hero group wave as they leave the traffic behind. This is when the kids in the back say "super cool transport, can we have one like that!". I couldn't find a picture of that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wcw43921 Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Re: Super Transportation Something for your Golden or Silver-Ager characters--the 1954 Fiat Turbina-- While it's powered by a gas turbine, it would not be difficult, I think, to re-imagine it as a jet-turbine car. Heck, all it needs is a pair of pop-out wings and it could double as a hero's flying vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
