Re: So...what "Brick Tricks" or "Speed Tricks" would you give The Super clan? Supermans powers are so great that turning coal into diamond is about the least offensive thing he could do to the world. What happens when America dosent have the same ideals as Superman? The world exists by his sufference after all.. But as to super tricks anything just about covers superman

Simply put, where is the MA attack that does increased KB. Ive watched three supers type films today ( Matrix, House of flyingdaggers,) and it strikes me Super MAs are kicking people all over the landsacpe with what is a attack obviously designed to throw the opponent far away. MA attacks are buy default-1d6Kb so even a MA haymaker is the same as a standard punch

Re: Silver Avenger Write-up? A 2000pt avenger. whatever do you spend the points on? Sounds like my wife shopping, oh ineed this and this and this.....

Re: Duplicating alot As all the almight of these boards keep saying "dont get hung up on names" "Energy blast dosent mean energy blast," nor does any other power mean intrinsically what it says it is, you want to create infinite copies of yourself, use summon.

Re: Duplicating alot Summon a exact copy who also has summon

Re: Silver Avenger Write-up? I think it was 1 in 100, that one in a hundred of all humanity. thats 1000 avengers if you just include military more if you consider police forces. And these are people who would be predisposed to the physical benifits with the training to boot.

Re: Silver Avenger Write-up? My point is these are manufactured heroes, while not ten a penny the program could produce them in succicient numbers to replace all brick/MAs they are not second string but grade A fighters. Who have mental def powerdef, res def good skills , good MA, lots of powerful gizmos. Okay in a 600pt world they are versatile but not overly powerful, but the world is 350pt heroes....unless the gm tells you to be prepared to be out powered by agents id want the base pts to be vastly increased. They change the balance of what good in a superhero world.....maybe its a style thing but i prefer supers to be the only one for the job cos no one else has the power or skills to take on the threats. And if a 600pt avenger is low powered what does it take to be high powered?

Re: Silver Avenger Write-up? Imagine what youd feel like as powerarour type when primus hands out Ironman level armour, and lots of free gadgets. Whats the point of superheroes? Captain america is special one of a kind, not very powerful but has super level skill, he dosent have the highest spd damage def cv and ranged attacks of the campaign And this is just the SA the golden avenger is better, as a example a player wanting to play a cap clone is going to be annoyed by the SAs full spectrum capability. there meant to be well trained boosted agents not a match/overmatch for superheroes built to the same concept. Olso if goverment agencies were creating cadres of Psis or energy blaster to the SA level people would rightly complain about the weakness of standard heroes, you are playing a game where the players are meant to be powerful

Re: Silver Avenger Write-up? Any campaign which has these type of Sas running around better have powerful heroes, 350pts just dosent cut it. What gets me is the fact its not like one or two there are lots of these guys, who cannot be outperformed by 350pt brick/ma types. They hit all the campaign limits in terms of damage cv spd , have high def and all defences. Now if heroes did not have to pay for there eqipment it would be fairer. I like the character but i feel that the SA negate the need for bricks and MAs, they are already way better than you, and they are just boosted agents.

Re: Silver Avenger Write-up? SAs should be low powered superheroes, with a generous skill set. Even at 600pts there attacks/CV should be lower than what heroes can get. AS written they are simply to good. especially if you want to play bricks or MAs

Re: An idea on making the system a bit more dangerous 3d6 is good d20 bad 2d6 unthinkable? RNG

Re: Be like unto a god Like Doom or Magneto or High Evolutionary... after all its for there own good. Ps this is the attitudes of Goverments, why is magneto wrong and georgr bush correct? ps im not american

Re: NCM-type for strength I meant the mega scale thing as a joke. for starters there is a point where its more efficient to buy str. As for exerting i always go for crush damage, if you can lift the moon you can certainly crush the moon. ( thats damage )

Re: Limits to Superhuman Intelligence? You or i can no more play a 30int character than a 60 int character its just a bonus to skill rolls, and paying 5 pts for +1 level all skill roll rather than staight int is silly. Now if int was costed at 2..........

Re: Dr. Doom vs Iron Man Yeah i read that as well, good line. It not easy to get repect from doom. Doom has the weakest armour of practcally any armoured hero, he just comes up with tech items on demand so i go with weak armour and large gadget pool. Iron man is the most powerful armour, but is inflexible. Doom wins by exploiting weaknesses rather than sheer power (constant unchanging ) Iron man is after all in thors league. Doom can take the beyonder, iron man cant.

Re: Hard Target: Statting The Minigun High cost no real effect is a hero problem not mine. missing or gaining no extra bonuse for the other 99shots likewise. its just silly

Re: God Package... Very good write ups but so far they have all turned out for the better, greek gods were famous for personifying human weaknesess to silly (or godly ) levels, currently everone seems to have found some kind of redemtion/inner peace.

Re: An idea on making the system a bit more dangerous I think he just wants to make the game lethal, without having to resort to nuclear strikes costing 10pts. Heros defences are way way higher than any other game (apart from space 1889) in terms of survivability. You cant even kill a tough human with a haymaker ever phase for a year. Most MAs can survive, by the numbers, having a tank roll over there head. These are not inconsequential rules, especially if you favour a game wher being shot can actually kill you ( by the standard rules this is not so ) or have your head caved in by a troll or whatever. Without changing any costs simple state that all Pd and Ed ( inc FF Armour whatever )only gives 1/2 def vs body damage, but still full effect from stun. Now str 60 bricks with def 30 can actually hurt each other, not easily but at least its possible.

Re: Hard Target: Statting The Minigun Hes upping the damge to represent multiple strike, the rules are plainly in favour of autofire, otherwise i dont suppose thed be there. Personally i approve, but im a hard core rules fanatic, and the rules say 6000 rounds a minute is autofire, simply because it is. ( sfx issuse like decidind EDM means reality controll or wishes leave me doubting peoples sanity ). If the rules cant handle it they should be changed, but they never are...... my cross to bare and i hope some otheres Minigun 90 180 Rka 2d6 Var adv +1/2 (amo load) +1, autofire 250 +2, charges 6000 +2, OAF 30 +12ocv, OAF, only ( indiscrimate carnage ) Total cost more than your allowed game effect not allot vs JLA types

Re: Hard Target: Statting The Minigun This is pointless in champions, sorry hero 5th, firing 100 bulits at a target per second dosent increase your chances of hitting the target ( oddly enought every military in the world disagrees with this base assumption ) -2 -4 -6 in fact your last bullit couldnt hit the earth if you aimed ( as well as most of the others.) so what the point of stating a real weapon that, is made redundant by game mechanics. bad mood, but hey its me

Re: Minor Power Build - Magnetic Media Floppy discs are gone cds are as magnetic as my butt, probabilly less so just call it sense information, usable at range, discrimatory. After all tracking scent has no right to exist its merely highly enhanced per mods on smell.

Re: NCM-type for strength How about a +1/4 adv mega scale str. all lift is now in ton rather than kg, +1/4 for x10. They did after all use in for movement.

Re: Walking On The Sun One would hope it incuded the flight power at a sufficent level to counteract the 100G. 5"/seg assume spd 4, 1500" of flight, makes that def 90 sound positively reasonable.

Re: Damage Reduction Would you allow a brick with 30rpd and 75%dr personally i might would i allow a brick with 70rpd, probabily not. Even though comics are full of these types of characters.

Re: Walking On The Sun In responce to the comment about the sun being a nuclear reactor/ nuclear bomb, the suns surface temp is only 6000c less than the molten core of the earth, and way less than the millions of c of a exploding nuclear bomb. Using desolid is wrong for so many reasons, your looking for the power invulnerability and hero hasent published that yet.
