Re: The Ultimate Base I don't think that is the Ragnarok. As listed on those pages, the Ragnarok carries four vehicles, none of them jet fighters, while the ship on the cover looks like it operates as a flying aircraft carrier/battleship. Were the stats for this accidentally left out of the book?

Re: The Ultimate Base What is the name of the base on the cover of The Ultimate Base? Are the stats for it in the book?

Greetings All, Hero Games should ride the wave of energy being generated by Champions Online! Cryptic gave out trial keys to the life time subscribers. I gave two of them out to my Champions group and both players have now bought Champions Online. They want to know how long until we have the 6th Edition stats for everything in the Cryptic universe? It would be great if the upcoming Champions book had everything we have seen so far in the game. I'm going to start my 6th ed. Champions campaign running parallel with the material given in Champions Online. Cryptic did an excellent job!

Re: File Planet quick-fix and issues of note. It appears most people commenting on this at Cryptic's website say they are actually saving their progress. The catch is everyone continues to have to keep restarting the process.

Re: Disadvantages...lists anyone? Wow, awesome list!!

Re: Watchers of the Dragon vs. Ninja Hero Funny you should mention that. Firewing ended up winning last time I ran the tournament. We spent a full session just discussing, among the gaming group, what he would do. The PCs kept trying to get him to sponsor their home countries. The players were happy to learn Firewing will not be participating in the tournament this time.

Re: Watchers of the Dragon vs. Ninja Hero It was just an awesome idea! I have used it for many campaigns, and all the groups have loved it.

Re: Watchers of the Dragon vs. Ninja Hero Thank you!

Re: Watchers of the Dragon vs. Ninja Hero I am presently in the beginning stages of running the Tournament of the Dragon in my Champions campaign. My first book was destroyed years ago. I recently purchased a second book but it is damaged (didn't see the damage until I got it home). Blessedly, it is only a couple of small sections, but one of them is necessary. What is the bonus to the fighter, who wins the tournament, in fighting the Death Dragon? The section of his rewards is only slightly damaged. I know about the talisman making his country of choice the next leading world power, but it looks like he gets somethiing else in addition to reputation.

Re: Stronghold

Re: Stronghold

Re: Some questions about Stronghold Very neat idea!

Re: Some questions about Stronghold My hero group is going to try to break someone out of Stronghold. The problem is two of the heroes wear suits (OIF) for their powers. I am still trying to figure out how to rule this one. Technology isn't listed as a weakness in the vulnerability section on page 112. Is Stronghold supposed to be effective against Doctor Destroyer's Black Talons, Warlord's Warmachine, and Viper's numerous suits of armor? Doctor Destroyer and Warlord are so powerful that it doesn't matter one way or the other, but their minions are another story. Is Stronghold purposely made to be vulnerable to someone like Armadillo (though those NND attacks would make him think twice)?

Re: VPPs and Aid: Characteristics (please help me find the rule) Thank you for the insight.

Re: Stronghold Greetings All, I asked this question in the "Champions" section and just realized this might be a good place to ask as well. What effect, if any, does the power negation system have on technology? It doesn't show any limitation in the "In Game Terms" section on page 56, but I don't see anything about the SPARC armor, handcuffs, or other items having any special resistance to it. My guess is all of these items are not effected. Does that then mean all powers derived from technology are immune to the effects (the Power Negation has -0 limitation to not effect technology), or only the technology used by Stronghold (the Power Negation is bought with Personal Immunity)?

Greetings All, I recently purchased Stronghold and love it. I do have some questions. What effect, if any, does the power negation system have on technology?

Re: VPPs and Aid: Characteristics (please help me find the rule) Thank you for the help.

Greetings All, I am having trouble find a rule dealing with using a VPP to aid a characteristic (and what happens when you switch slots). Our hero has a Cosmic 40pt VPP. He uses all 40 points to buy a 2d6 Pre Aid ( he is encountering Takofanes and doesn't want to start the combat by running for his life despite that being the best course of action ) with a delayed fade of 5pts per hour (+1). He keeps rolling to get the maximum effect of +12 points to Pre and immediately goes into combat. He decides he needs more defense during combat and switches to a Force Field (20PD/20ED). Now the question is, what just happened to the increased presence? Does it fade at the normal rate? Or does it fade immediately and completely? The above indicates the extra Presence fades as normal, but I have seen a few threads where it appears to be understood that the extra Pre fades immediately since the slot was changed.

Greetings All, Will the Champions Universe simply be updated to the new rules of 6th Ed, or will there be a new Champions Universe (such as the dramatic change from 4th to 5th Ed)?

Re: The Official Hero Timeline Thank you for pointing that out for me. It was very helpful.

Greetings All, My Champions group is going to have an opportunity to time travel in an upcoming adventure. I have most of the Hero books including books from the Fantasy Hero line and the Star Hero line. I thought there was an official timeline, at least showing where the books take place, but I am now unable to locate it. Any ideas?

Re: Building the Animated Justice League No need to stop. I enjoy being able to see them at a glance. Thank you for redoing them.

Re: Building the Animated Justice League Thanks Jm, I didn't see the HD files until you mentioned them.

Re: Building the Animated Justice League My guess is the above is the result of when the boards changed to the new code. Is there a simple way to edit this to make it look right once again? I was thinking of doing having my group meet the animated JLA and would love to use these characters.

Do powers in an elemental control recover ten points each turn (5 for the power and 5 for the base) after being hit by a drain? Or are the 5 points divided between the two?
