Due to the fact that Hero Games finally made their 4th edition stuff available for pdf I decided to convert some characters from the Dark Champions stuff.

I will get back to doing this soon, RL and me being lazy has kept me away. I think I will give my list of the top ten supplements for Champions.

I was just wondering if any of you have a pulp character that you just don't really like too much? I have to say for me it's Doc Savage. I want to like him but he has the problem of just too perfect as well as rather sexist. Then there is the 800lb gorilla the Crime College. The fact that with no arrest, not court hearing, no anything Doc just sends them up to some asylum and performs brain surgery on them. I mean if this ever got found out it would be nationwide scandal. Also the fact that he seems to have little or no emotion. He is just a boring character overall, his aides are the ones with the most personality.

Pulp Hero is good even if you don't use Hero, it's that good.

Think you can do the 4th edition Champions? Seeker, Quantum, Obsidian, Defender, Jaguar and Solitaire?

Hey, I can do that. Maybe tomorrow night, rather tired right now.

Here is the next one, this one I focus on Character Creation.

Could you point out the champions podcasts? I plan on using either 4th or 5th edition as they are the editions I am the most used to.

I appreciate all the likes but could I get a response?

So I noticed that there was no real videos about the Champions/Hero System on youtube or anywhere for that matter. There are a lot of information about other rpg stuff but as far as I could tell there was nothing explaining Champions/Hero System to anyone. So I decided after getting my own web camera to make a series of videos myself. So here is the video.

I like this. it's kind of like the Batman/Bruce Wayne story but with a twist.

Explain how superhero games are different than other rpgs

He is mentioned as being killed by VIPER when they finally catch up with him. It is mentioned in the 4th edition champions universe book.

I am trying to put these in line with the rules. The rules are 'interesting'. They're not bad just a bit odd. Their builds vary from very powerful to really low powered.

So true. One of the reasons I stopped running Hero after a while was because I got tired of doing all the work because people were so intimidated by the system. They had no problem making 3rd edition D&D characters with its numerous splat books and mountains of feats. That was because most of the work was done for them and they did not need to make everything from scratch. That is one of the reasons I find myself appreciating 4th edition nowadays because the BBB is much more user-friendly then the later editions.

I just bought the Justice Inc. box set with the Lands of Mystery for only $10.00 plus $6.00 shipping and handling! I can't wait for this to come in the mail. Lands of Mystery sells for $90.00! on Amazon and i am getting it and the Justice Inc box set for $10.00! WOOT! Man I am playing this game! This was in a lot of ways a ground-breaking Hero product. It was one of the first to change how martial arts worked and just was a lot of fun. I first played it in Job Corps and I played a WW1 boxer who used to be a demolitions man in the army. Awesome!

So I have decided to run Day of the Destroyer at Gary Con next year. I have decided that Gary Con is a con celebrates older games that i would run using the 5th edition ruleset. However now that i am getting the Champions team together I was considering bumping them up some points as I don't want to be creamed in the first fight the Dr D. So for those of you who know about Seeker, Quantum, Jaguar, Defender, Obsidian and Solitaire do you I should improve on them or just use them straight of the book?

You know I actually like Hero Maker but there are no computers with an A drive anymore and you can't download it. Also I could figure how to print characters with a new printer. This reminds me of the earlier Dragon magazine when they used to put gaming stuff for other systems. Then when WOTC took over that ended it.

Some racial diversity could work too. I can imagine Renny (one of my favorite characters) being a black with huge fists.
