  1. So we all know and admire the surebrook stuff page with all their character write up and Killershrike has a lot of characters too even though they are not comic book and movie write ups. But I seem to remember there being more pages like that out there. More character write ups. From book, comics and movies. Any got any links for me?
  2. There are a lot of toy reviewers on youtube Wcw43921 I bet someone there have reviewed them already there.
  3. He wanted two different feeling martial arts not just one good attack for the points.
  4. For many it are but I like it when the numbers we say to eachother fit the narrative of the laws of special effects. Thats me though. Its a matter of taste.
  5. Looks interesting. What are the enemies of this campaign? What are the heroes fighting?
  6. Nice. The gameplay feel of martial arts actually being different when it comes to the numbers is one thing I liked about the original Ninja Hero. Let us hear how it goes.
  7. I would switch around Splendid fists martial strike with an fast strike.
  8. Problem with "evil" campains are that some think it means having black plate armour and not taking any crap from the local tax collector while other thinks its about being as gross as possible in every way possible. Even if everyone is on the same page and want to play somewhat humane characters just following the evil empire you will still get the main problem of all evil characters and adventure parties: ITS VERY EASY TO BE EVIL. If it gets to hard they can always run away. If they have to make a hard choice they can just make an easy one. If a smart guy outsmart them they can just brute force him. If a brute threatens them they can just kiss his ass. If a "greater evil" threatens the entire world and they HAVE to work with others so save the world they can just try to use magic to escape the world with their treasure and then start over in another world. And that if you get lucky and have restrained players. More likely you will get power trippers and murder hobos who will kill npcs if they have magic items at any time no matter how much trouble it cause or only speak to npcs to brag and threaten them. Ask yourself if you put so many character motivations in stone and give them roleplaying guidelines to follow to ensure that they are not too evil then why are they playing an evil campain in the first place? Why be evil when you cant be evil? Where does the line go? You dont want your player characters rape the npc wenches in the campaign but how do you feel about them being rude and sexist towards them? How long would you be willing to listen to them being rude towards npcs? You have covered the ground making sure your campain wont be gruesomely gross but are you prepared for the PC's to be annoying jerks? Who only care about themselves? Who will turn on anyone at anytime to get ahead and probably not have the social overview you have of your world and as such quickly add up more enemies than you are prepared to create balanced encounters for? Are you prepared for them to just skip encounters and battles you have prepared because they think its to high a risk? Even when its not? I am just telling you this because there is a reason veteran GM's prefer having good parties. A group of mostly good characters will feel that they have to do something if they come across a dangerous situation threatening innocents.
  9. For game balance I would say deadly blow is hand killing attack for hand to hand only and deadly shot is ranged killing attack for ranged attack only. It costs more but I am fine with that as damage is cheap in hero system any way.
  10. This is a little bit beside the point. Hero is more easy to pick up and play if you know the rules. Thats the point that is being made. Dnd is a patchwork game that people play out of habit because they think its easier but 90 percent of the time you are going to go back to the books and read an obscure rule or spell description or another. Hero is better if you know it. Dnd is neither easy to get into or easy to play after you played it a couple of years.
  11. Okay the newest episode have a dude from Dragons gate do a promo on his phone. Thats not really Mlw.
  12. MLW is my favorite wrestling promotion. Its on youtube and it got a channel in the UK and its also here: https://video.prowrestlingtv.live/shows/mlw-fusion/season/1/episode/0
  13. Well then all we can do is to see what happens. Hopefully the next generation have pitchforks and torches ready.
  14. Sounds like a great time Strand. And yes magi is the plural of Magus. Race modifiers going away I dont care about off course since I prefer Hero but furries must not be given foothold.
  15. In hero you can play any class combination you want and even customize it! Hero for life!
  16. I have zombies and skeletons have the "takes no stun" power but not the "cannot be stunned". You can smack them back a little. To be fair it comes with my skeletons having greater speed than humans and zombies a lot more in body than any human so its balancing.
  17. Well I have not heard any dinosaurs complain about the score yet so it will stand.
  18. For those of us keeping track. https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-s-dart-mission-hits-asteroid-in-first-ever-planetary-defense-test
  19. It only goes one way man. Only one way. That said in my Hero campain its a human world. Last time I had a multi species dnd campain furries were not invented yet and annimal dudes were just miniotaurs and gnolls and stuff.
