Re: Tuala Morn Errata? Thanks, but I'm not sure I want to interrupt the writing of 6E for this - it's more like a little strange thing that would best be addressed in a broader list of errors. And frankly, I'm not even sure that I've got it right. Maybe the boards could check my reasoning? Basically, I think the limitation values for beneficial geasa on page 136 are backwards - a greater limitation value is given for a restriction that is actually less restrictive to the character. The beneficial geasa ("can only be killed by X") are written up as damage reduction, only versus deathblows, only against limited type of attack, with "limited type of attack" being "everything except X." So "can only be killed by spears" is DR, only versus deathblows, ineffective against spears (-1/2). And "can only be killed as the result of some incredible combination of factors" is DR, only versus deathblows ineffective almost never (-2). The first writeup is therefore cheaper than the second, whereas the second is a more powerful, less limited power. Sanity check?

Is there an official compendium of acknowledged errata? If I find one, to whom should I submit it?

Re: Destroyers Rewrite?? That is correct.

Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. That's great news. Dunno whether this means Cryptic hired you, or if this is for a non-CU project for 6E, but it's good to see DOJ is still going to be using the best.

Re: Gestalt: Architects of Change: What Would *You* Like to See I did not respond initially because I thought the things mentioned in the initial post would probably be plenty. For me at least, my failure to make suggestions does not correspond to a lack of interest. I'd definitely be interested in such a PDF.

Re: Some Book Of The Machine Pages Posted Those are really beautiful pages. I like.

Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Here is the writeup, but it's a victim of the html change to the boards; you can convert the html if you're interested.

Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Here is the art, from this thread. The writeup by Enforcer84 is somewhere on these boards, but I can't find anything since the website update.

Re: in the spirit of christmas! My favorite of yours so far. Repped for this great and generous project!

Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. If it was Einherjar, I saw the same supplement.

Re: Monster Island BTW G-A, thanks for all the reviews, which obviously take a lot of work. It says I need to spread some around before I give you more rep.

Re: Monster Island Okay, no worries. Like I said, YMMV.

Re: Monster Island IMO it's pretty clear from the text of Monster Island that the Lemurians - at least the ones on Monster Island - have, indeed, changed in a very interesting way. If when you say "they were always that way" you mean that the developments that are described in Monster Island are completely consistent and "in continuity" with the Lemurians' backstory, then I agree with you 100%.

Re: Monster Island I also loved the Lemurian history in Hidden Lands, and I tend to agree with you. But I would have preferred not using an established NPC from Hidden Lands, Warlord Zarn, as part of the group that returns to the previous status.

Re: Book of the Machine's Color Art

Steve's February 6 weekly update says that BotM will "feature color artwork and layout throughout." I worry that the color artwork presented might rely on Cryptic renders, which I wasn't crazy about in Monster Island (although it did have certain advantages over some of the other art presented recently in HERO books). Has anyone heard anything about this? Steve, do you have plans about this yet?

Re: Monster Island I think he probably meant the fact that the group described in MI are instead of being basically human-appearing, as they were described in Hidden Lands and Atlantean Age.

Re: Seeker vs. Nighthawk- THE REMATCH!

Re: Superhuman women and normal women In Mutants & Masterminds' very interesting Paragons setting, these people are called "origin chasers."

Re: The Marvel Handbook online From what earlier posters were saying, it was probably removed due to copyright issues.

Re: Adventures Into Darkness Is On Sale Now! Thanks for the initial reactions, G-A.

Re: Adventures Into Darkness Is On Sale Now! Anyone available to post a review?

Re: Project 1000: Build a Legend/Megahero Number 8.

Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Grazie. Maybe some day I can do a favor for you.

Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Tribble, does Mr. Brains have any background? If so, would you please share it?
