Has anyone (fan or DOJ) done a new version of the Stronghold Guest List using the new map layout from 5th ed Stronghold ? Trevor

Re: der Westgote TUB, of course, the The Ultimate Series, I haven't picked up a single one. I guess its Evil Unleashed for my next purchase. Thanks for your help. Trevor

Re: der Westgote He must be in Evil Unleashed, there is no write up in Champions Worldwide for him. TG

There is a mention that Eurostar recruits a German brick named der Westgote, but I havent been able to find a writeup for him. I have gone through News of the World all of the villain books and Champions Worldwide but am not having any luck. Does anyone know where/if he is written up. Thanks Trevor

Re: Was there ever a name for this Guy A 10d6 NND Sonic attack gun, if you believe the writeups in the back of the original Champions comics. TG

Re: Pyramid in the Sky? Pyramid in the Sky - I bought it, read it once and put it away never to be seen again. It was 3 short adventures in one sourcebook. It was set up just like Shadows of the City, but was not quite as good. If you would like some more details PM me. Trevor

Re: Ley lines and leyline nexus Hey Patriot If you get a chance take a look at the novel "If Whispers Call" by Don Bassingthwaite, an old Alternity / Dark Matter novel, in which the characters are investigating the Bachelors Grove ghosts. Its actually quite interesting, as a lot of the material in the book seems to have a corresponding entry on the website you quoted. Trevor

Re: Potential Campaign: Alpha Flight or Superhero Socialism I think I would put the group under the auspices of the RCMP, CSIS is an intelligence agency, while the RCMP serves as the Federal police force (think state troopers and FBI combined) it also satisfies the requirement of a being a non military organization. If you are looking for real-life information, the RCMP maintains a large training base in Regina a city of about 200,000 in the province of Saskatchewan, which could serve as the groups base. Heres the link for the training base website http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/depot/index_e.htm (The city itself will also be hosting not one but two Rolling Stones concerts in October, which of course has absolutely nothing to do with the thread, but we are all very excited about it.)

Re: Liefeld's Titans Its funny you mention this, there was a huge thread on the DC Boards abou the "art" of the last issue. Liefeld (or someone pretending to be him) actually went on the boards to apologize to those who were upset and assure them it was only one more issue. Trev

Re: "Hudson City" like graphic novels

Re: New Avengers? You're absolutely right, Spider Woman and Luke Cage being used in the Alias series was perfect, but now Bendis has the "New" Avengers and he is stuffing the team full of his favourites. I am not a huge Wolvie fan or Spiderman for that matter but loved the way Bendis was writing Cage and Spidrwoman. I just wish they were back in Alias (and not the lame "Pulse" that the series turned into), and really do you need two spider people on one team?

Re: I Need Opinions on published supplements. Thanks for all the feedback guys. It looks as if The Ultimate MA and The Until Superpowers Database are the clear cut winners and Fantasy Hero a runner up, which works out well as I have a couple of players interested in keeping with a fantasy genre. Thanks, TWG

Re: I Need Opinions on published supplements. Ah, Dark Champions, one of my absolute favourites from long ago. I think this one is going to be at the top of the list, just to see what changes have been made from the original. The idea of a more "realistic" genre is appealling for some of my players who "shudder" don't read comic books..... TWG

Re: I Need Opinions on published supplements. Excellent, I was looking at picking up Sidekick for a couple of my new players and the UNTIL Database sounds ideal for my situation. I have 2 players new to HERO and two returning after a long time away. Thanks

I have only recently returned to the HERO system after a lengthy hiatus (actually Fusion scared me and I ran away screaming). I have picked up FRED Champs, CU and CKC, and was wondering what the next supplements I purchase should be. I'm not partial to any particular genre and really would just like to know what the individuals gathered here consider to be the best of the new books (new being 5th ED) Thanks TWG.
