Lord Liaden got a reaction from FenrisUlf in R.I.P. Darren Watts
Psychopomp.
Honestly, for the former President of Hero Games, I can't think of a more fittingly-named escort.

Lord Liaden got a reaction from SteveZilla in New Product: Mutants & Masterminds: Deluxe Champions Handbook
" A lot of you will ask “why not use Hero System, Sixth Edition or Champions Complete?” And that is an excellent question. One which I have no answer to. Licensing is a strange mistress and the rites must be observed."
Okay, when I read the blurb about this on the main Hero Games News page, I was excited. This is in broad terms the sort of product I've wanted for years, opening up the splendid world of M&M supers to Champions players. Now I'm just perturbed. I know many Hero gamers have a nostalgic fondness for Champs 3E, but for me its coherence and flexibility fall far short of later iterations of the system. I have to assume there are legal or financial complications involved, but I'm afraid this product went in seconds from "must-buy" for me, to "probably pass."
