  1. Hi all, I'm an old member of these boards, and I haven't been around for a while. My group is picking up the Champions books again, but we are not upgrading to 6th ed. So, I'm wondering if the old 5th ed FAQ is around somewhere, so I can look something up. Can anyone provide a link? I've look in the Hero Resources document. Thanks, Constantine
  2. Re: Best Graphic Novels to Inspire a Campaign? OK, I like the darker stuff, so if you ever wanna take a walk on the dark side... Sleeper - omfg I loved this series, at least the first season. Great book about an undercover operative who gets abandoned in the field. Wanted - when the villians finally decided they'd had enough of the heroes, and ganged up long enough to rule the world.... Authority - the book has become crap, but the first few books I thought were great. Get the first collection. Oh, and I second the nominations of Kingdom Come, Rising Stars, and Punisher!
  3. Re: AOE Hand Attack The specific power I was talking about was Hand Attack, or whatever they are calling it these days. And thanks for your responses. Food for thought. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays, all!
  4. I don't have a book in front of me, and I was just reading the Indirect attack and blocking question posed to Steve, and I had a thought. Can Area of Effect Hand Attack be blocked if you are not adjacent to the attacking character, but are in the area of effect? And, if it is possible, would said block spoil the entire attack, or would just the blocker be unaffected?
  5. Re: WWYCD: Where brave men (and women) are needed Battery - Would stay. He's been through something like this before, and spent years fighting a similar war. He'll fight this one, too, and hope something comes up/happens later that he can get home. Damnation - Depends on what the boss says, and the rest of the team wants to to. We've already dealt with Destroyer in our world, and if they wanna stay here and deal with this one too, so be it. After all, no one escapes Damnation.... Lightshow - She's too young and too new to the hero game to do something like this. She leaves.
  6. Re: Secret IDs: In or Out? (Off Topic) How can you take Joker off the list? Look what happened to Barbara Gordon in the Killing Joke, that was only kind of associated with Batman, as far as anyone knew. Then there is what happened to Robin...
  7. Re: What Fantasy/Sci-Fi book have you just finished? Please rate it... I just listened to Anansi Boys on CD by Neil Gaimen. Good story, and I really like the guy who did the reading...
  8. Re: Sleeper Yes. I loved this comic. I'm sad its over. I think I started a thread about it on the NGD a while back. The setting would make for an excellent higher powered Dark Champions game. I adopting elements of the story into my Aberrant Hero game. I especially liked. On another note, any ideas on how to build the main characters power?
  9. Re: Anita Blake Vampire hunter Its not THAT bad... Anyway, I really loved the first couple of books, but the series has been going downhill ever since Obsidian Butterfly. Now, I don't mind a little sex in my writing, but when sex substitutes for plot, I'm unhappy. I still buy the books, mostly because I just want to see where she is taking the character, but I keep hoping that we'll get back to the mystery stories eventually. I've even written her and her fan club with such a request (not that I expect anything to come of it). And yes, the Harry Dresden books are very good. I have a hard time not reading the whole thing in one sitting. I just started reading the series and I'm through book 5. Warning, very addictive, but fun!
  10. Steve, I'm pretty sure you answered this question already, but I can't find it after using the forum search function, so I thought I'd ask it. Can you use a 5pt. Skill Level with Intelligence skills to benefit your Perception roll? Thanks in advance.
  11. Re: CHAR: Wonder Woman I don't read a lot of WW, but I happened to read the OMAC project and noticed two things I thought I'd comment on: She seems to have some sort of ability to control birds. Lots of birds at once. She distracts Superman with a flock of birds. And, the razor tiara needs to be beefier. She cuts Superman with it, and does enough damage that he stops and puts his hands to his throat where he was hit. So, it needs to be able to hurt Superman. Maybe you are calling the tiara magical, so it bypasses some of his defenses....
  12. Re: Your "2006" Pet Gaming Projects I'm working on converting Aberrant over to Hero. I'm also toying with converting the world of Carrey's Kusiel trilogy to d20.
  13. Re: Beacon Careful, DR. We almost kind of agreed on something there.... Merry Christmas!
  14. Re: The cranky thread Keene, NH. She not really a doctor, a registered nurse practioner in family practice. So pretty much anything gets you in...
  15. Re: The cranky thread I love paying a doctor to tell me to go buy over the counter medication. Even if she is cute, and broke her foot so she couldn't get away...
  16. Re: Beacon How about a new custom megascale sense? Sense people I've marked. Probably more expensive then the levels, but less expensive than the transform. Would only have to be megascale to work with mindscan.
  17. Re: DC Art Findinga Thread Thats a cool picture, I so owe you rep....
  18. Re: F.E.A.R. Operative (Spoilers) What is the combat shooting talent?
  19. Re: Teleport catcher I like this thought, but (you knew it was coming) would this stop someone from teleporting to a location paid for with the teleport power, since they don't have to "see" either of these areas. Maybe mental illusions would have to be used here along with a fixed location, UAA! Would you need UAA? If you had a fixed location in your teleport, I might let you substitute it for someone elses with mental illusions...
  20. Hi Steve, I don't know if you've been following our discussion in the Teleport Catcher thread, but its brought up some interesting points, and I thought I'd bring a few of them to you. Does the event specified in the trigger advantage need to be perceived by the person with the triggered power, or is the trigger advantage itself able to perceive its conditions, or something else I haven't thought of? Also, can a triggered power stop an instantanous power from happening, ie can you set on a supress of teleportation a trigger of "when someone is about to teleport" or even, "when someone has activated the teleport power" and have it stop said teleport?
  21. Re: "This is Aleph, and you're on the Global Frequency..." You could do something like give the pc's very little experience, but that experience would carry over from character to character. Or, you could actually give them more experience, but that experience can only be used for 1 character, and a combination of them both.
  22. Re: Teleport catcher LOL. But I must spread more rep before giving it to you again...
  23. Re: Teleport catcher Anybody else notice that the person who asked this question originally seems long gone? We scared them away!
