Re: Compound Eyes Would that be 360 or 240?

Is there any inherent advantages or weaknesses (or both) to insectile compound eyes?

Hello all, I'm trying to figure out if there is an actual phobia concerning the fear of being grabbed/smothered/entangled. It's not quite Claustrophobia as they race in question is perfectly fine in enclosed spaces, however, they breathe through oxygen absorption through their skin and so have an inherent fear of having their "skin" covered adn thus being asphyxiated. Any ideas?

Hello all, I am getting ready to make a post on the D3 Adventures site concerning the re-write of Kamarathin. In particular, I am going to be requesting feedback and suggestions from people that have played or just bought it. Any and all suggestions are welcome and this is a chance for you folks to have a direct impact in the quality of the revised product. I’d like to emphasize that any and all suggestions are welcome. There is no such thing as a stupid or ridiculous one, so please don’t be afraid to post what’s on your mind. Anyone whose suggestions are taken will be listed in the credits of the book…just an added thank you for you taking your time to make the suggestions. Please post your suggestions in the comments section of that post on the D3 Adventures site if you could. It helps to keep them all in one location.

Re: Can Only Attack With Powers That Attack Him Thanks everyone! This has been exceptionally helpful.

Re: Can Only Attack With Powers That Attack Him Luckily this will be online, so the GM just has to update my character sheet in HD or send me the build and I will.

Re: Can Only Attack With Powers That Attack Him And that's why a "Cosmic" VPP is so much more elegant. I don't ahve to build any powers ahead of time nor do I have to have them pre-built into the character sheet. The GM hits me with an attack, I now have that attack. The GM doesn't hit me with an attack, I have an empty VPP. This becomes even easier since I don't play face-to-face games anymore.

Re: Can Only Attack With Powers That Attack Him

Re: Can Only Attack With Powers That Attack Him Awesome! Thank you. Yeah definitely want to add the "Only Attack Powers" Limitation, what would that be, -3/4? As for the defense, the mention I made was that he doesn't have any defense, other than whatever equipment based armor he obtains, which would also be counter productive if it is too protective.

Re: Can Only Attack With Powers That Attack Him I have no idea what a classic Mimic Pool is. I'm not a supers player so I don't come across these kinds of power builds. Like so? Variable Power Pool (Mimicry Pool), 45 base + 45 control cost, (68 Active Points); (Only to mimic powers that affect him/only changes powers when successfully attacked by a power; -1/2), (Mimiced power can only be accessed for an hour; -1/2), (Can only mimic one power at a time; -1/4)

Hello all, I have this idea in my head for a low-powered supers character. His only super power is that he is able to fire off attacks that were used against him. He has no way of turning the mimicking off so he has no control over what power he currently has access to. He's only able to have one mimicked power at a time and he can't selectively keep one power over another. The mimicked power is only active for an hour or so after he's been hit with it. I'm thinking a form of cosmic VPP wold fit, but I'm not sure. Either way I'd want to keep it low, say 40-50AP. So, for example, he gets shot by a gun. It hurts, he doesn't "absorb" the power as a defense, he has to actually take damage so that his cells can mimic the attack. From this point on he is able to launch bullets from his hands that exactly mimic the original gun shot (within the limits of the VPP). If he isn't hit by another attack within the next hour this will be the attack he is stuck with until an hour passes from the time of the original wound. Let's say, during the same combat, he gets hit with an icy entangle that "freezes him in place" (as opposed to forming a cage of some sort). For the next hour, or until he gets hit with another attack, he is able to launch the same icy entangle, but can no longer utilize the gun shot power. So I'm wondering how I would go about building something like this?

Hello all, We have a couple more posts on the D3 ADventures website concerning teh rewriting of the Kamarathin setting. Stop on by and ask questions and/or post your own comments.

Re: Campaign groupware? Open-source campaign book? This was what I was talking about.

Re: Cool Guns for your Games Want!

Re: 6E: Can Change Environmen apply an OCV penalty, or would that have to be a Drain Tactics or some other appropriate skill would be appropriate to counter it. Something that allows the attackers to sidestep the "zone of control" the character is establishing.

Re: 6E: Can Change Environmen apply an OCV penalty, or would that have to be a Drain The penalty applies to all enemy combatants within the AOE

Re: Campaign groupware? Open-source campaign book? Yes, it has. I can't remember the name of it, but I'm sure someone will jump in here. I just wanted to let you that yes, it had and I think you can search for it on the forums.

A new post over at D3 Adventures concerning the continuing revision of the Kamarathin setting.

Re: VPP Frequency? Prior to 6E I never allowed them. However, I believe that was more to my ignorance of how they worked than any comment on VPP's in general. In the Kamarathin setting I have several professions that use them, exclusively spell casters.
