Re: Technical Question regarding Dark Champions
 
After a quick skim to refresh my memory, the majority of the powers should be fine out of the box. The vast majority of powers between 5 and 6th editions are the same or close enough to might as well be the same (for example remember 1" = 2m). Powers that use aid, hand attack, endurance reserves, and/or area of effects will likely need to be repriced but otherwise work the same. Lack of Weakness related powers will have to be ignored. Unbreakable Will no longer provides "free" mental defense equal to EGO/5 but is otherwise the same. Overall, a quick double check is all you need.

Hi. Thanks for the questions and no worries you can ask as many as you want to. 
 
Number 1: We are aiming to release this sometime in October. It will depend mainly in how long roll20 will take to review all the material and approve it, so pinpointing down an exact release date right now is in flux because the work is still in progress. But the intent is early 4Q 2022.
 
Number 2: There are a couple of character sheets out there for Hero System. One is for heroic level games, and the other is for Champions. The Champions character has been out there for a while and it has some macros and automation, but it can be quirky to get everything right. But the learning curve is not too steep, and it works well. It also has functionality to help track END when you use powers, but you still have to press a button to get it to calculate, as well as macros to help roll and tabulate damage. 
 
The character sheet importer also works pretty well. I've found that it doesn't import everything perfect all the time in more complex characters, but overall it's been a great time saver. In fact, I've used to import more than sixty character sheets for this product and it worked perfectly. 
 
I would be happy to send you an invite to a shell game where I can show you how to use the importer and the character sheet. Just PM me and we can set something up. 
 
 

Yes. As a matter of fact, that is how I uploaded the characters from Champions Complete and Champions Begins into Roll20 for the upcoming project. Here is a video link that shows you how to do it. Note, that you can now select the importer from a drop down in roll20 instead of copying the link. 

We were able to get a lot accomplished this week for the Champions Begins GM Book & Adventure. We completed editing of Chapters 1 through 4, and added the content to the Roll20 Adventure that'll be included in the bundle. The work done this week concentrated on editing and proofreading the adventure, and formatting it for Roll20. It's just the copy text and art for now. The maps, characters, and tokens are planned for after the text content for the adventure is complete. 
 
The plan for next week is to complete Chapter 5 by editing and formatting for Roll20 (making sure all the headers are consistent, another proofreading pass and such). Then doing a final edit and proofreading pass of the whole adventure. Additionally, we'll do a final review to particularly look for opportunities to include additional links in the text for easy access to references. For example, clicking on VIPER Agent in the text will open up the Character Sheet for it, or clicking the name of a Skill will open up a window with the description. As a stretch goal for the week, we will start adding the characters and character sheets. We'll start with the pre-generated characters first. That'll be a bit of work considering each pregen has a new character sheet per chapter.
