Just Starting a Hudson City campaign but not using HERO system

Recommended Posts

Okay, I'm new here, so please be kind.

 

I'm just starting a campaign based in Hudson City. It is a Dark Champions style vigilante crime fighting campaign using a modified d20 modern system. My players and I are most familiar with that system, so it was the one we decided to use, though we have incorporated the "Grim n' Gritty" combat rules for Hit Points and Bleeding to make it less level based. There are not really any superpowers per se, though one character has some affinity with electricity.

 

I would love to have people check out my campaign website and always look to share ideas with others playing the same type of game. Please reply here and let me know what you think.

I like it. As it grows, I can see it becoming a valuable HC resource. You should look through some of the pages here for "swipable" stuff.

 

High Points:

The Usual Suspects

Resources (good list by the way but I would add some movies to it like Training Day, Smoking Aces, Eastern Promises, Pretender (TV), The Shield (TV), and other good shows)

Images

Newsprint

 

I'd like to see more of the HCPD section, a calendar that had "city" events in it (baseball games, Jazz in June, concerts, Art shows, ect...) and lots more material across the spectrum (more news, more Usual Suspects, more, more more...)

 

Good stuff.

Thank you VERY MUCH, Eosin! I was probably working on the "Resources" page while you were there. It is much more populated now.

 

EXCELLENT idea about the calendar. Consider it done.

 

I will definitely be adding more, more, more, more. We are just getting started.

 

I never actually considered that it might become a resource for others to use for Hudson City gaming. That would be an honor. I'm still looking for resources to use myself. I am reading the material here steadily as I can.

 

Thanks again!

Okay, I added some stuff to the site. I did the calendar section you suggested, added to the HCPD & HCFD sections, and added images, an npc or two and lots of stuff in general. I also started a campaign log thread here and since we play on Sunday evenings, there will be another post there (and a new session summary on the site) in a few days.

I just got around to read the links in your resources section. Man' date=' what a great find. Those links are solid gold. Thanks.[/quote']

 

Thank you VERY much!

 

 

I just posted my latest campaign log from Sunday night's session, and have added even more content to the site. My news stories now have accompanying photos, complete with that grainy texture you'd expect from a Hudson City news rag.
