Re: Kill Bill Well, I chose Penetrating randomly...I wasn't sure how to define her "vorpal" katana...the things hacks limb and bone as well as a lightsaber. But bloodier.

Re: Kill Bill Damn straight...2-3d6 HKA, OAF, Penetrating. An earlier version could have Hunted: DiVAS, plus related contacts. Possible Hunted of Crazy 88, if you think any of the few survivors would be psychotic enough to go after her. Of course, she's be Hunted by a certain little girl, as we'll be seeing in nine years or so... Disads for signature style(Pai Mei)?

Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat ACME Brand Orbital Lasers...4 out of 5 Dr. Destroyers(of various multiverses) recommend them! NT: Bad ideas for theme restaurants

Re: Raideen-inspired power armor Yeah...the "1910 Mazinger"...steampunk style. Gorgeous figure, I have one myself. Stats for a Mazinger Z(aka...Tranzor Z) human-size armor'd be cool. I'd play it, though Great Mazinger and Maizkaiser'd be cool as well. Obviously I'd play a Getter Robo-style armored character in a heartbeat(hence my Avatar), though do you hink it'd be possible to do the Open Getter transformation(when it splits to the 3 space jets) without making it a robot? Would it have to be a cyborg?

Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat Y'know, Phil...I do think his Holyness would appreciate his car horn playing "La Cucaracha"

Re: NGD Scenes from a Hat Yoda(to Padme): If twins you have, keep them apart you should. Otherwise, in-breeding there will be. In-breeding leads to Jerry Springer, Jerry Springer leads to hate, hate...leads to the Dark Side.

Re: Kingdom Come Casting Call Y'know, I was just thinking about the voice-casting if they did a CGI version... Has anyone else heard the audio adaptation of the KC novel? The full cast and effects one? They had some good talent on it, esp. for the Big Red Cheese. The way the "Shazam!" echoed during the climax was just great...I'd dig hearing that again.

Re: Anyone else awaiting this? Okay, I just saw Elektra a few hours ago. It was pretty average...nothing really special, but not bad either. Tattoo had some cool special effects going for him, but I didn't care for Typhoid that much. I prefer Typhoid Mary, not this knock-off who, while sexy, is pretty much just Pestilence from Apocalypse's first batch of Horsemen. On the other hand, the F4 preview was heli-sweet. I'd hated the Destro, er, Dr. Doom shots I'd seen before, but he looks a lot cooler with electricity arcing from him all over the place. Ben looks all right...esp. when that semi hits him...poor semi. The effects on Johnny look amazing, though the wanna-be "one-liner" shot at the trailer's end was lame. The camera angles on Reed's stretching made it look like he was just reaching towards the camera for the most part, while Sue was barely in it...and without showing off her powers at all(maybe her force-field, but who knows?) I'd like to thank Rikathos at least for the ticket to the movie.

Re: Kingdom Come Casting Call Hmm...yeah, I could see Heill as Bruce. For McKay...only one person should play him. Alex Ross's dad, the model for the character after all... I'm sure Deadman'd be CGI, but I'd volunteer for his voice

Re: Anyone else awaiting this? The FF clip does look like it has some promise. About Ben being fake...well, it's Michael Chiklis and a lot of make-up, right? Last i knew they weren't gonna digitally bulk him up...but I also have yet to see the trailer. Yeah...Sin City does look pretty sweet, eben though all I've read was A Dame To Kill For.

Re: Kingdom Come Casting Call Yeah..Sketch and I have talked about this on several occasions, esp. an animated version. You could get a lot of the current voice casts, thn have fun with the new characters. Personally, either way I think it'd be better as a mini-series than a movie.

Re: Attention HeroClix Modders - Request for some help Man...I've never tackled a cape yet. Wings and long hair, sure...but not capes, yet. From the looks of the Monarch photos, this is what I'd recommend. Slide an exacto knife or similar blade/flat object under the cape, where said cape meets the figure. Wiggle/jimmy the blade around evenly where it's connected to ensure proper lifting of the accesory. I don't know if the cape has connection pegs(the Wasp's wings did), but these'll help when it comes to placing the cape on a new figure. If so, you can awl small holes in the shoulders and use model glue to secure it. If there aren't connector pins, then I reccomend just slowly carving the cape away and just gluing it on the finished figure. If this latter case applies, make sure the shoulders are level with the cape's contact points.

Re: The dreaded Pokemon question...

Re: The dreaded Pokemon question... Giving the Pokemon the entangle Vuln. as you put it wouldn't work, as several Pokemon use grappling maneuvers. It's have to be an ability of the PokeBall as suggested in the second concept. Pokemon are also maore vulnerable to capture if the have a "status condition", i.e. asleep, poisoned, burned, frozen. If the creature is somehow incapable of actively defending itself, usually with heavy stun damage, then it can be captured. Then again, it could use special rules depending which kind of Ball you use and how powerful the Monster is.

Re: Saiyuki writeups? The thing is I'm not very experienced at Hero, and the Hero guru I know is boycotting the system(and these boards...), so I'm not gonna be able to do a write up on these...at least not any time soon. That being said, I'm not quite sure how to define Goku's demonic side...when the circlet comes off and he goes into amped-up berserker mode. Would it be using an enraged with some kind of stat boost?

Re: Neon Genesis Evangelion You know, now that you mention it, I always did wonder why the Angels attacked in the first place. The discussion about kabalism and seraphim...intrguing stuff. Alas, a bit...hmm...not over my head, but way to the side of it.

Re: Saiyuki writeups?

Re: Saiyuki writeups? Ooh! Tempting...very tempting. I'm still kinda new with Hero, but I could take a stab at an "easier" character, like Goujo...someone like Goku or Hakkai may still be beyond me, but I could give you some bases if you're still interested. It's been about 2 months since your post, so...you still interested?

Re: Building an Eva Yeah...you've got your work cut out for you here. I'm not sure about making the 01 a follower...it is its own character...though the idea of obeying the pilot as a Lim. is interesting. Not sure if I'd neccesarily make it a Psyche lim, as it's supposedly built into the machine...though a Psyche makes sense when you consider WHO the EVA is! The thing that always frightens me away from imagining the EVAs, or at least 01 and 02, is how to appropriately definin its limits. I mean, with everything the 01 does at the end of End of Eva, it becomes more plot device than anything. Statting out a god is often a risky venture. I do, as I said, like the idea of the Dependence...it'd be a good idea to toss in some kind of equipment(the armor/entry plug/what have you) that keeps its (high?) limitations in check until destroyed. The EVA doesn't really go berserk unless the pilot is unconscious and/or Dummy Plug is activated, the latter being something else all together...you think of anything else, I'll help however I can
