Hermit Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Re: First 6Th Ed Brick Powers... Steel skin: Armor +15 PDr/EDr visable -1/4 36 points This one stood out. Armor is now "Resistant Protection" , seems about the same cost, but 'perceivable' is considered a -0 limitation since it is rarely a hindrance if I recall.

I figured that "resistant cost end is a Force feild, and is visable so being "visable was a lim...looks like I guessed wrong....so add 9 points to "Steel skin"....?

Fireg0lem Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Re: First 6Th Ed Brick You probably have more END than you really need, with a 15 REC. You'd probably be fine with 40. All that extra movement might be better done as a single movement with Usable As [Other Mode of Movement]. You only have 1 sight group sense, so you should probably buy +4 PER with Normal Sight, -1/2 only to counteract darkness (or just +4 PER with normal sight) for 3 or 4 points, rather than Nightvision (which is bought to apply to your whole sight group). What is that 19-point "Super Commando" thingy? I'd check with your GM about that 5-point perk to be a "registered superhero," it may not be appropriate/cost that much in some settings. Or is this like, he's a federal agent with superpowers who also has law enforcement powers? You can do a bit better on the characteristic by going for breakpoints on Dex, Int, and Ego. Like, 8 Dex and Lightning Reflexes rather than 13 Dex, or having either 8 or 13 in INT and EGO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireg0lem Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Re: First 6Th Ed Brick With a body of 12 and 15 rDEF, I think he's fine, assuming his 10 DC attacks are a reasonable average for the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 5 point perq is meant to be the equivelent to a "Silver Avenger" a super with legal status.....OK the end might be a might high, but I like to push a lot so I reflexivly buy End high... "Super Commando" is a mish mash art created by PRIMUS to teach to super powered users, about 45% of the Silver Avengers use it, the rest use their "own" style. I was thinking it would be Speed strike, Martial dodge, Mar. Escape, and Martial Throw...plus Choke hold?(or Killing strike?) 4+4+4+3+4? something like that.... I might have to change the Nightvision...though he's a starting character, so more vision powers might be arriving via EP's (assuming I ever play 6th anyway...)
