Re: Re: Re: Watched vs. Social Limitation It make sense to me that they'd have both. The IA is always watching the police. The frequency is the only thing that would change. I don't have Star Hero, but your example sounds like it would be like an -8. If the guy being watched is a rogue cop like in previouse examples, you could up it to -14. Or even a hunted by Internal Afairs -8.

Re: But I thought... That is posible. I haven't ever used an independant focus. I don't like them. But my point is still that if the staff is intended to be safe for the purchaser in all but the most remote sercomstances( when is the hero not going to have the gloves on, and if the hero doesn't have the gloves on, why would he use the staff). And at the same time does damage to someone who is able to take it away and use it on him, this is an advantage not a limitation. Again, this depends intirely on how the concept is suposed to be, witch Ben didn't elaborate on. Even if the staff is a personal focus and can only be used by the character, I wouldn't allow this limitation to be worth more than 1/2. probably 1/4. Because it would just never come up.

I personaly would cut the side effects limitation at least in half, if not down to 1/4. This is going to be a very rare side effect. And if the idea is to make it so that if the staff is taken away and used on you, the other guy gets hit, then it would be an advantage to have the side effects(witch would almost never effect you and always effect the guy that stole your staff). Granted in the above ex. the staff is not independant, and therefore could not be used by anyone else, but even in that case, I wouldn't go higher than -1/2. If you were to make it independant, then the side effect becomes a +1/2 advantage. Just my opinion.

Me no good at this Someone will you help me please that was not so hard

Sounds like it was a lot of fun Well, Maybe next year I can get the time off. Was there a large turnout of Hero gamers? My friends and I went to Orccon last year and there was only one guy there running a Hero game I was realy looking forward to Dundracon, at least until I found out we were having inventory on the same weekend...

Re: Disadvantage: Held Accountable This sounds good, but I wouldn't think it would be worth 25pts. I mean it's only going to come up if you go against Gods will. How often is that going to happen?

1) Captain America (talks the talk; walks the walk) 2) Iron Man (Truly a self made hero.. flaws and all) 3) Spider-Man ( What can I say, With great power comes great responsibility) 4) Magneto ( A product of his environment) 5) Super-Man ( Absolute power corupts absolutely... not so for the Man of Steel) 6) Bat-Man (The first of many wanabes, The one true dark knight) 7) DOOM ( The vilain by witch all other vilains are measured) 8) Flash ( cause when you think speedster, you think Flash) 9) Venom ( The symbiot shows us there realy is a fine line between love and hate) 10) The Watchers ( Unfathomable power and can never use it)

To me this sounds like a major transform(from anithing to anything). This would be extreemly expensive, but posible.

Hey everyone. Just wanted to know how everyone liked Dundracon. I couldn't make it(had to work), so I was hoping to get the scoop...

I like that too.. Or maybe a limited form of images.. Again.. a good idea..

I'd have to agree with this one. With only a 10 point multipower, things like invisibility are too expensive.

On the ultra move. you have the Megascale running added to Primary. You dont want that unless you want all of your running to be megascale. Also, I dont see the sonic boom side effect being worth -1/2. It seems more like a role-play thing to me. Just my opinion.

Re: magic A mage on the order of Doc Strange would definately be a VPP(probably along the lines of 75-85 active points). It would have "change powers as 0 phase action" +1. Posibly "no skill roll" +1 ( if you're talking Doc Strange) Limited class of powers(magic) -1/4 A lower level mage could have a small VPP and a Multipower to hold the "well known" spells.

Re: A request JM, I think you want this on the Hero Designer board

I personally see this as more of a multiple vehicle thing. Build the guy, then build the various armors as different vehicles. I've tried this with one of my PA guys, but I have yet to master the technique.

Re: I understand your head ache. OK.. First of all, I think this is the way you want to do this. You can change it so the Aid goes to the END RES instead, still getting the same effect, pretty much. But a corection on the interpretation of Autofire Aid. You get to roll an extra time for every 2 you make the roll by, they are not cumulative. You only get the highest roll +1 for every "shot". This is the way it is described for absorption, witch is also an adjustment power. It doesn't show the advantage availabe for Aid, but I'd guess it works the same(FREd p88). Ex: If you have 2d6 Aid with Autofire3(+1/4) and you make the role by 4 you get to roll 2d6 3 times and take the highest roll. Then add 3. If you ave 2d6 Aid with Autofire5(+1/2) and you make your roll by 8 you get to roll 5 times and take the highest. Then add 5. NOTE: With autofire Aid as with any autofire, it's still limeted to how much you make the given roll by. So if you only make the roll by 2, you only get 1 extra roll. NOTE 2: I was just reading the rules for autofire, and you may want to forget using that part, it could get very expensive.

With the size you're obviously talking about, I'd buy it as a base. I've never tried anything like that, but there must be a way.

We use Primus all the time in our games. We have a playercharacter named Anthem from another game that had ascended(sp) to Golden Avenger status(although he still goes by Anthem). In our current game, we were aproached(sp) by Primus and are now affiliated with them.

Another thing to remember when talking about starships. There are no 'real world' stats. It's still just a game.

It was posted here before, a perfect solution to this problem. First you have to define the cost of the multiform. The MAIN character only pays 1/5 for BASE points in the Multiform. If your multiform has it's own set of disadvantages, and most do, then it can have it's own experience. Just give the player 5xp(or whatever you're giving for that game) and tell him/her that the exp can be spent to improve the primary character or spent as xp on the multiform(never changing the BASE points).

I agree with Monolith here. If the MAN is essencially the same and just gains powers, it's OIHID. The only one I'm on the fence with is Firestorm. If I'm not mistaken, isn't Firestorm the merging of two different people? That one really could go either way.

Bricks My favorite brick is named Dynamo. He starts out as a low level brick, but also has Kinetic absorption. After being hit a few times, he's got a STR of 70.

Iron Man is definately one of my all time favorites. I hope they can make good movie out of it. I'd hate to see another "Captain America" or "Punisher" out there. As far as doing a Champions conversion, I've tried to convert some of my favorites. It just never quite works out. I've decided instead to use them as inspirations on my Champions characters. I'm currently playing Man-O-War. An Iron Man inspiration.
