Re: "24" Challenge You know what I was just thinking? The UMA's Krav Maga might be the civillian Krav Maga which that wikipedia entry says skips the killing strikes, breaks and such.

Re: "24" Challenge 4 and I saw a region 2 box set of all 4 seasons at a reduced price. I've seen a set of the first three in region 1. Depressingly enough, 2 and 3 which I rented from Netflix and don't own, are both twenty dollars more than 1 and 4 which I do own. 4 is currently on sale at a lot of places for the holidays. It may be over, if not it will be soon so buy it now and save twenty bucks.

Re: "24" Challenge I'll definitely add weapon element knives. Don't know why I didn't. All the maneuvers you've listed seem to fit well but what's weird about Krav Maga is I have no idea which source is correct, but wikipedia says that it's all about hitting sensitive areas, killing strikes, taking the initiative away from opponents and reversals. Let me clip something from the site: Is anyone around here a practitioner? Or does the author of the UMA post here, I think I've seen his name. Maybe he can expand on this.

Re: Wal-mart Miniatures Score! Those look nice, good find. If I see it, I'll probably grab it. We're in the middle of a move though, so it might not happen.

Re: Best SuperHero Fights ever One of the things I liked about the Authority was their fights. They've sort of lost their coolness in the current series, but there's other stuff going on too. But in the Ellis and Millar days, they were very cool. Pretty much all of them, but my two favorites are Midnighter and Jack Hawksmoor taking the big blue guy apart and The Authority vs. The Avengers knock-offs.

Re: Character Challenge: Write up Bizarro-Apache Chief Wait, come back. You haven't heard that the plot of that episode revolved around the Chief's impotence.

Re: Super-Villain Showdown: The Taskmaster vs Deathstroke the Terminator. How can you say "no offense" and then just throw that out there? Do you think your little preface vindicates you of all offensive content? This is a civilized forum and you can't just come in here, accuse someone of cowardice and then make it all better by saying "no offense." Jeez, at least be a man and state your insults with certainty and real venom. Nah!

Re: Character for Review and Advice Soliciting Wow, that is some excellent feedback. Thank you! Maybe, but I'd thought if her wings stopped the blast, she wouldn't take stun. Basically the equivalent of bouncing small arms fire off her armor. With feedback she takes that stun, right? I know, but she doesn't flap her wings. It's like Hawkgirl, she uses them for maneuvering, the flight is an inherent ability from the organic metal in her body. The Supersonic flight is her opening it up all the way. I like the way you buil the EC, I take it you used a force field not to break the no 0end powers for EC rule? My wife didn't want any ranged weapons and I wanted an attack with penetrating or AP for the tough nuts to crack.

Re: The New Blue Beetle No sir, I don't like it.

Re: The New Avengers - Good Or Bad, Threat Or Menace? I understand why people don't like Wolverine in the Avengers, but I think Spidey is a good fit. He's a social guy and they've been trying to recruit him since the sixties, he's been a reserve and I think the only reason he hasn't been an Avenger before is because of his own self-doubt. Now that he's matured and is starting to think maybe he deserves something good for a change, it makes since that he would agree to join the Avengers. Whether or not it works out? I don't know. But I for one am glad to see him there, where I thought he always belonged. The only time I read the Avengers for any length of time was when Spidey joined after a guest spot to fight Nebula. He quit soon thereafter, but I was really into him on the Avengers.

Re: Character for Review and Advice Soliciting

Re: Character for Review and Advice Soliciting Well the concept is she's an alien with an organic armor that's stored beneath her skin and when she's in battle it looks like power armor. but it's actually organic. So it's a part of her, but it looks like a costume. The Modular Weapon Array is an external version of the same substance that makes up her wings and armor that can take the form of any melee weapon. "Knives, stabbing weapons" Hers is a warrior race and this organic metal that composes part of their body also lines her organs, muscles and skeleton giving her enhanced strength, reflexes and durability. I was thinking of Nth metal... TO THE EXTREME. The enhanced perception is the result of her species evolution into flying warriors. Maybe I'll reduce her str and increase her dexterity, speed or defenses, but I wanted her to be a little different from Hawkgirl by being more of a demi-brick than a straight martial artist. I was also thinking about giving her a little regen to represent the metal repairing injury and shoring up cuts. It would be a cool special effect that whenever she gets cut a silver metal fills in the hole. Edit: It's might not be readily apparent, but the forcewall is her spreading her armored wings to defend.

Re: The New Avengers - Good Or Bad, Threat Or Menace? They did win, and in a very short amount of time. However, due to decompression, it dragged on for an entire issue, but from what I could tell from the book, they landed in their jet stepped out the door and confronted Wrecker. Who kicked the crap out of them for a few minutes and then they rocked him. I blame Bendis for making a win look like a loss in an effort to make Spider-Woman more "kewl."

Re: Character for Review and Advice Soliciting I gave her the noncombat multiplier because her supersonic flight will cross whole counties at a bare minimum, so she'll be tooling around town with her regular flight. sixty inches seems like a good cruising speed. Weapon element is a good idea, I'll dig up the point somewhere.

I'm building this for my wife, basic concept I'm going for is flying brick/brawler like Hawkgirl. Mostly I need help with the megascale flying, never had much of a grip on that stuff and rarely use it, but would like to incorporate it here. Any other advice and critiques are gladly welcomed.

Re: The New Avengers - Good Or Bad, Threat Or Menace? One year later. Has your opinion changed? Are you still reading? Did you start/stop?

Re: "This is Aleph, and you're on the Global Frequency..." I bought the two trades of Global Frequency last week when I was in Sacramento for training. Good stuff. I like the idea of new characters every adventure with recurring agents, I'd hope players would generate new characters because they're enjoying the game, without the awards of xp. I guess I'd handle it by giving them higher point totals to reflect their expertise and experience. Like all characters are built on 75/75 plus a Global Frequency package and some predetermined experience bonus that may vary from character to character depending on concept. "The Rookie" wouldn't get fifty bonus points, but he may have a very unique skillset or power-like skill to explain his recruitment by Miranda Zero.
