  1. Re: Camouflage? Thank you, Christopher. I have one more example I need your adjudication on. --- Marius is hurrying across a green field, it's various plants barely clearing two feet at their highest. It is also early morning, so, asides from the sun not having quite fully risen, there is a light mist across the land. Our relatively inexperienced guerrilla (Skill 10) is wearing a woodland ghillie suit with a number of native forest flora attached to it. If he can just make it to the forest on the other side of the road, he should be like a ghost. The thing is, plans are made to go wrong. Spotting an unfamiliar Armoured Personnel Carrier coming from the mist, and unable to take the time to really blend in, Marius quite literally hits the dirt some five meters away from the pavement. His colour scheme mostly matches that of the vegetation, but the suit itself is not tailor made for a field... The two troopers atop the vehicle aren't rookies (PER 13), and are specifically on alert for any threats lurking near the road.

  4. Re: I Am Alive (post-apocalypse) PRE attacks: how do they work in a post-apocalypse setting? You have to determine the maximum "realistic" amount of PRE a human can have, what bonus/penalty negation a firearm bestows, and what the penalty is for approaching/defending against a group (instead of just one person).

  10. Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore "Mole sauce" sounds so very wrong.
  11. Re: Camouflage? Is a Contrast Bonus of -1 PER huge? I've seen normal BDUs (battle dress uniforms) that matched the environment they were up against, and it can be damn difficult to spot the wearer even when they are in "plain sight".
  12. Re: Camouflage? The Taliban are wary, but not actively looking for a specific threat. I wasn't sure if camouflage paint is within the resolution of HERO's mechanics. But, no, he didn't put any on (he came across them rather abruptly). His Stealth Skill is 11.
  13. Re: Camouflage? Sergeant Benny is at the top of a low hill in the desert, leaning against a side not entirely within sight of a Taliban patrol that is moving from cover to cover. It is high noon, so lighting conditions are optimal, and they are twenty meters away. He is trying to observe the enemy before they get away. Fortunately, his anachronistic choco-chip battle dress uniform blends into the primarily yellowish peach colour scheme of the rocks around him. If he can avoid detection (the Taliban have PER 11), he should be fine. --- Assuming you are gaming out this scenario in a "realistic" fashion, how, in game terms, would the Sergeant's camouflage help him, and what would the numerical modifiers be?
