  2. Heya all

     

    My Group is wanting to find sponsors and some kind of "crowdfunding" to create their supergroup, become media stars, etc in order to build and buy their base and vehicles.

     

    So now I get a problem in order to calculate what amount of money and advantages those sponsors ccan give them ? I mean, did anyone had this problem before ? Is there a rule of thumb to evaluate how many free points such operation could give them to get bases & Vehicles ? or in percentage of the total cost ? 

     

    i'd need to make it something clean and official, so peace up things among the group ^^

     

    Help wanted here !

     

    Regards

  3. To me it's just a SFX; The Secret ID will stay in place, because the Character has that kind of mental blurring affecting others, no matter what. You don't need to make him pay for that, he already have the Complication; and it doesn't depends of rules or Dispel or stuff that risk to negate it.

     

    Mentally cleared, Opale

  4. Hi there !

     

    Here is a question that happened in my group about getting the group some kind of communication device or spell. One of the PC is permanently Desolidified, and imbued with a permanent Penetrative Damage Shield.

     

    1 - So how could one establish some kind of communication device through HRRP or Mind Link, which would have to be an Focus ? And would the Focus reists his Damage Shield and how, providing the said DS is always On and Uncontrolled ?

     

    2 - as that PC is Desolidified, would his communication device need st "Affect Physical World" adder too ?

     

    Regards and thank by advance

  5. Hey peeps !

     

    I need a name for a "powerless" superheroine based on Whipfighting. Picture based on Sydney of the Danger girls comics

     

    And maybe an advise or two to make her quite different from the "Lash" of the Solo Villains book 

     

    Opale, snapping her whip!

  6. Just saw this thread.  Very cool.  I have a few suggestions.

     

    To really give a campaign city an identity, you need radio guys.  Irritating radio guys.  "We're Dan and Steve in the morning, rocking you on your way to work with this non-stop all-talk rock and roll power hour!" (which is half commercials, zero songs, and 100% annoying voices).  And you need an AM shock jock conspiracy guy.  The J. Jonah Jameson of today wouldn't be a newspaper editor, he'd be your local wannabe Glenn Beck.  Sports talk radio guys are also generally well known.  You have your local "homer" who always talks about how great the local sports team is, as well a former local athlete whose playing days are far behind him, and a 'villain' type who bashes the local teams and talks about how stupid the coaches are.

     

    Radio guys are something every city has, and half the population hates them.

     

    As far as locations, I'd suggest coming up with as many interesting places to have superhero fights as you can.  People use banks all the time, or the middle of the city street, or warehouses.  Branching out from there and going to other places can keep the campaign fresh and memorable.  How about:

     

    A large aquarium, complete with large, breakable glass panes and sea life that is a bit larger than in real life

    A trainyard (active or not)

    Subway tunnels

    A haunted old mansion

    An enormous cathedral

    A comic book convention, with people in costume (sometimes as the villains you're fighting)

    A movie studio set

    A carnival, with a house of mirrors, a tunnel of love, some small roller coasters, etc

    A steel foundry, ala Terminator 2

     

    Just to be nosy and do an unreasonable demand, but is anyone able to create maps of such places with hexagons grid ? ^^

  7. Hey peeps !

     

    After a week long conversation with my players, I'm having a big turmoil in my mind (is that so different than usual ?... No ! i don't want an answer to that rethorical question :P)

     

    And there is the big idea I'd like you help me with, as I need infos, advises, on both conceptual and techniques topics.

     

    After 2011 terrorist attacks, the patriot act was voted and lead to various wise and unwise decisions.

    What if a special division of US Army was created, to form a group of mixed agents and metas to fight supercriminals like King Cobra, Ouroboros and the COIL organisation for example ?

    And that they wouldn't answer to Senates or Assembly, a little bit like the CIA and NSA do, inside and outside USA territory.

     

    So come my PATRIOT idea.

    And my ask for help.

     

    1/ I lack the cultural background to give this project an "american" touch; my thinking is too much french tainted, and I would need your precious thoughts about it.

    And first what PATRIOT acronym would be ? For a secret division acting like the SHIELD ?

     

    2/ to who or which insitution such an army group would depend ? How many people would be in the secret ? What would it need ? 

    I figured out a disaffected army base somewhere in the territory (but where ? hints someone  please ?) would be reactivated.

    how many people would that involve in a "realistic" way, to give the secret army group a real strike force. How many agents, techs, experts, etc ?

     

    3/ I thought such a group would work first with volonteers, but that they would use also people with no future, as a redemption, or civilian metas they would persuade/force/balckmail, etc... to act for the greatest good of USA. And so train such people with US Army methods 

     

    So what would could be the PATRIOT Everyman Package be like ? (skills, contact with the persons in charge, talents, perks, Power like communicators or such, Complications, etc )

     

    4/ One of the main adversary I was going to give to the group would be COIL; both a powerful and reasonably sized supervillain group, with a high danger level. So I guess they would need devices, experts to understand COIL and King Cobras minions motives, and methods. Hints again ?

     

    5 / What relation if any, could exist between with this group and other instituion like PRIMUS, UNTIL, CIA, NSA ,etc ? 

     

    Opale, not sure on how to join the GI Joes...
