    Also, everything is now downloaded, installed, and functional. Thanks for the help.

    Absolutely agree.
     
    By the way, Extinction Event is such a product. I have not played it but it's the type of product that I would prefer to have from HERO.

    Above, @Steve Long describes exactly the Danger International I do not want. Another genre/sub-genre book describing stuff from cavemen to modern. Not what I want. I want Danger International to be a game with a define context and setting, with a clear purpose where readers learn what the game is all about. Is the game about Bondesque/Bournesque spies or is it grtty and down to earth? Is it set during the Pre-War, the Cold War, the War on Terror, the Near Future? What are the stakes? Now, once DI establishes a base context/setting/purpose, I could totally see expansions covering the other eras and style.

    Honestly, that's been a concern of mine, which I expressed to the Powers That Be. The Champions International chapters I've read so far have seemed overpriced for their length and layout. FWIW I have it on good authority that Hero Games management consider these PDFs unfinished compared to the state they'll be in when they're collected into a single volume. Given that, as much as I'd like to read them all as they come out, I'll probably wait until the final book (which defeats the purpose of the sectional book concept).

    HeroGM got a reaction from pawsplay in "Fantasy Hero Complete" or "Fantasy Hero 6th Edition"   
    I see it as this. As the GM I have the full books (6e vol1&2 and Fantasy) - my players can go through this option or get the Complete book with the understanding I may using things not in their book, and will advise them as such as part of my Campaign notes.
     
    "For Mystara Hero I will be using these from the Core books plus APG1.....Class and Race packages are Xxxx(pg REF).... Magic is written as....."
     
    I try not to be crunchy or a rules lawyer, I just want a clean game with as little debating as possible.

    HeroGM reacted to DShomshak in Urban Hero   
    I heard an interview with the book's author, and he straight-up said The Magicians was a hate letter to Narnia. Well, to all Fantasy, but he seemed to think the Narnia series was paradigmatic of the entire genre. So... Fantasy by someone who claims to hate Fantasy and not to know much about it. Hmm.
     
    I did try to read the book, but gave up after the first 5 pages. I can't judge the TV series because it started at a time in my life I couldn't make time to watch it, and I've never had a chance to catch up.

    Foxbat is kidnapping cosplayers to try out his new fashion line, that or he's doing a miss Foxbat contest - rather they want to participate or not.

    I decided to take a crack at it:
     
    Cell Phone Multipower: 30 Active Points, Common limitations: OAF -1, Cost End -1/2, 1 easily recoverable charge, lasts 6 hours (+0, because otherwise it is cheaper to get rid of "Costs End" but the phone's use should be limited by battery capacity)
    real cost: 12
     
    Mind Link 5cp, No Line of Sight +10, up to 16 participants (Conference Call) + 15 = 30 Active Points, Only to others with a cell phone & requires knowledge of their phone number -1,
    real cost: 1
     
    Radio Perception and Transmission, Active Points 10, 
    real cost: 1
     
    Navigation App: Navigation skill at 14-,  9 Active Points 
    real cost: 1
     
    Translation App: Universal Translator Active Points 20 (OAF -1)
    real cost: 1
     
    Video Recording App Eidetic Memory Active Points 5 (OAF -1)
    real cost: 1
     
    Images Sight and Sound to replay video recording,  Active Points: 5 -The images are too small to fool anyone and they do not fill a hex. (OAF -1)
    real cost: 1
     
    Change Environment, +1 to light level, one hex only, Active Points: 3, OAF -1, No range -0.5
    real cost: 1
     
    So, I am already at a real cost of 19 and I did not include any games!  If your character is regularly somewhere with sketchy cell phone service then that could also be a limitation...  
     
    I just find it unlikely that a typical normal person would all walk around with a 19 point device that superheroes would have to pay for. 
     
    That said, in some places it might be "normal" for people to carry a gun but that does not mean I would allow heroes to use a gun except as a prop unless they paid for it.
