I just need a simple conversion not a mass of info like those writeups: it is fun to see how he did it and how much time he invested in it. But at this moment i am still starting to learn the book & the rules and MSH is the only real superhero game i know from waaaaaay back. But it gives me some ideas for the powers. I need to look into that conversion list abit ; I'll ask here some questions if i can't understand it...I am not a formulae guy so HERO is for me a nightmare (disadvantages: Nightmare for Calculus) btw who needs heroes greater then Unearthly?

move them around? Thx : that is alot ...and finally a good crack at it

that doesn't help ME much here

In the Ultimate Powers Book (MSH) there were a several Branches of different Mutants. By Rolling you could got "by accident" and picked "Radiation" but sometimes the radiation came from a different Alien source like the Celestials who implated the genes in some bodies, maybe they used radiation but i like to follow the Silver age theory... Children of the Atoms refers to the Atomic Age (In the Avenger Quicksilver calls him self a mutant) In earlier movies from the 50 'THEM" the giant Ants were mutations of the radiation but they were critters not humans The Hulk was born out of Gamma Radiation. So Mutants like the X-men are Gamma Radiated too; No..I don't guess so.. The title refers to the fear : indeed but not how they were produced. Example Cyclops: the parents are normal parents; Neither had suffered radiation... The parents of Scott summers were stopped by the Shiar. Scott was abducted by Mr Sinister who trained him in using his optical blast. When scott fell the area of his head that controlled his Blasts was damaged hence he can no longer control his blast so he needs to wear goggles He escaped Mr Sinister went to Xavier and in the Inferno aftermath he killed a MR Sinisterclone because the suppressed memory of been tortured helped him killing MR Sinister... Beast got his mutation from Apocalypse before that he could simple jump and had no fur Alle parents of the X-men were normal people... not affected by radiation We are all Children of the Computer age : thus that makes us what Robots ?

I am glad i have still got the old...

Genes = Atomsized (Atom because the characters were created in a peroid the atomic bomb served as a warning for other nations (remember Cuba Crisis)) It is later that mutations were look upon as genepool The Virus that was rampaging in the Mutantcommunity was like Aids but it was genetic engineerd by Strife. He didn't release an atomic device to invoke it.. He invented it based on the genetic makeup of mutants; I have a mutation of my own: i was not irradiated to have it; It is geneindepended and can be brought over to other people of my family. My mutation lies on chromosome 14, there is a gene called Fybriline: The mutation is called Marfan Syndrome We are mostly all made out of water and water is created out atoms of H and O; Our flesh is created out of atoms; each fiber and piece of iron remember F in Chemistry (atomic name) and so on that is why the x-men were called children of the Atom not because they were "irradiated" or their parents You can look at mutations like the talents work in HEROgames : they happen at some point and the people gain them per accident (when they least expected it: with me a doctor found it per accident when i was 12)

or playing Yathzee

my language is dutch (remember Belgium has three languages: german, dutch, french but english is second nature to me) Do you need to buy defence levels (defending against attacks)?

i was not discussing that . I simple gave an idea...

nice advice

X-men don't have their powers from radiations via their parents; Their parents are simple humans. It is in the genes: the thing (mutation) is activated when they enter puberty Hulk is a radiation accidentee (Big G in the desert -> Gamma bomb)

If you add AP & autofire as advances that you can penetrate the defences of someone

Thx for the avatar but... I don't want to be not too negative but i like mine better !! Tom, I am still not getting it... Is there list of CSL you can pick from? The handbook only went vaguely (for me) over it... Maybe i understood the way Heroes attack in Heroes wrong? Does it requires a skill check?

The point of autofiring is simple: Even I can comprehend it although i am not a regular gamer; I only want to understand what i am reading... Autofire is simple: you shoot a series of burst on your ennemie; Instead of one shot the ennemie is hit by several shots. They can be deflected or bounce of shields, .... You know the movie "Escape from Athena": Telly sevelas gives a guy a gun and says you pull the trigger and squeeze one time only one time and do "TATA and not TATATATA" ; the TATATATA part is autofire...(why did he say that because the gun was prone to overheating?) In some games you called it Bursts (several times firing emptying a clip; with one shot you can't empty a clip only if there is one shot in) Suppose your uzi has 6 charges in it; With TATATATA (burst or autofire) you shoot several times firing 5 shots after that shot you only do TATA '(one shot) I am a simple guy so i give a simple explication

He i am new too He i am new too You can put any question about Hero Fifth Edition rules on the board where Steve Long will gladly pay a visit and answer them but he is short and you can't answer back... (maybe that might be changed > winking a eye to Steve) It says "Fifth Editions rules questions" ... I have been there a couple of times and the amassed Hero-community has PM me already couple of times I am glad i am part of it...

hmm Dr Hyde ...

small items like standup cardboard figurines, lttle memory notes, a GM screen (so people won't see the dice rolling protects the GM that people won't see cheating himself) the book ofcourse with little poss-it notes attached at the critical pages...

How are the characters build as such? How do you come to those stats? Why did you know a crossbow does that thing or even a broadsword? Why can't Carters levels protect him from ranged attack? If he would how would he otherwise equiped (new combatlevels/weapons/items) or battled?

webversions of the older TSR version can be found on : http://www.telebyte.nl/~vlemming/index.html http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/appchar.htm You can reform the stats in HERO form using this page http://www.hierax.com/hero/super/marvel.html Stats of the TSR form are explained in this PDF files of the books http://www.heroplay.com/features/rules/marvel.php Powers must be added using the hero guide book or by using your own imagination

Jarvis is the butler of the Avengers ...i wouldn't call him a villan (or when he was appointed as the Red Cowl by Ultron 5) A Battle of the Century would be between Thor , Ultron, Darkseid & Superman, Meteorman III (Champions Universe) and (the bad guy of Champion Universe) DR Destroyer

Champions Universe is a universe on his own; Did you ever seen Captain America or other characters in their universe? They have created a parallel universe on DC/Marvel universe with their own touches: True...Marvel also has Atlantis in it and Lemuria is used (by the Deviants); They have their own storylines ; Nothing what happened in MU happened in CU or visa versa ...some characters are build on templates of DC, Marvel heroes that is because Champions is a comic/genre book and it uses them right... The ages they show are the ages relevant to their universe : some have crossovers with our universe , other have links with DC universe..and some are simply build from scratch That is how i see it after only reading "'Champions Universe"

Is Viper loosy build on HYDRA (Marvels villans) ? Is UNTIL based on SHIELD (Hydra's ennemie) ?

What does it means in normal english? In what forms can it present themself? Is it the same as when water changes in to ice and water in smoke ? (changes in chemistry make-up?)

or read this ? Look up the book champions universe if you want the ages in Champions Universe... each era has his/her champions depicted in it with powers, stats and background for playing

I recall that there is a table on internet converting the stats I will put it here... I don't converting spells on a guess basis but i need a converting table or tool... following links i found : http://www.geocities.com/area51/dimension/4599/3_marvelchart.html this guy created a new magic base http://www.geocities.com/hoganmsh/mf_character_htm he also created his own point system http://www.geocities.com/hoganmsh/pbs_unofficial.htm a guy created advantages needed for the game http://www.fortunecity.com/underworld/stunt/16/chapter3.html all other chapters can also be visited ... he created his own MSHP knowing this new material can you help me now ?
