Re: The DEATH of the HERO System!!! And I thought I was an old gamer! I've been a fan of the HERO system for years but after leaving NY and moving to Reading PA I've had a heck of a time finding a group plays it. So I've kind of been stuck with D20, D&D 3.5 and some Fuzion stuff. I WISH I WISH THERE WAS HERO GROUP NEARBY THAT COULD JOIN!

Re: Alternate Fantasy "Earth"

My group and I have decided to develop a fantasy world which is a topographical carbon copy of our earth with a few exceptions which include but are not exclusive to the following. 1. Magic or mana exists as an ambient energy. 2. Unlike earth, this world is hollow with an entire otherworld at it’s center. 3. Elves, Dwarves, Orks, Halflings, Humans and several other races inhabit this world 4. There are two suns around which it orbits. 5. Three moons, one at least which is habitable orbit it. 6. The system also contains 10 other planets. One replacing the asteroid belt, but a huge asteroid belt lies just beyond where Pluto would be. 7. “Mars†and “Venus†are habitable as are some of he moons of “Saturn†and “Jupiter†Thing is I’m looking to see if I can find a map of earth and it’s continents which can be altered easily. Something in black and white with only major geographical features. Of course I’ve listed the above elements of this world in the hopes of getting some input from my fellow worldbuilders here. Any ideas or elements you wish to add will be appreciated. The world will be borrowing elements from many sources of myth and fantasy literature to create an integrated and cohesive fantasy realm.

Re: Marna the Manslayer - Valdorian Age Warrior Woman Didn't know you could do powers like talents like that in FH??? I like that. And I too remember Shadra the Castrator, She went hunting for the PC's one time. It was quite hilarious.

Re: Is "evil race" an intrinsically rascist concept? Thank you for the sanity.

Re: Every good four color supers games needs: CAMPAIGN CITY!! ( I like that!! Can I use it??

Re: Campaign Speculation: please read, comment One idea you could use is to convince the offworlders that earth is lifeless somehow. Maybe using holograms or whatever the AI's convinced the offworlders that there was a massive nuclear war and everything is dead. Then again there is the problem of those pesky primitive radios. But what about range? Maybe with a string of satelites around the earth they could create a jamming field. The idea of AI's ruling the earth is one thing. But what possible reason would they have for keeping humanity trapped on the planet? Wouldn't they be working to make things better?? For one by putting manufacturing offworld and developing sea beds into undersea farms to help feed humanity they might also alleviate or even eliminate hunger and pollution. And if the AI's are smart then wouldn't they be working a cheap clean energy source to power earth's cities and civilizations. Maybe if they keep the people happy, working and fed there won't be any reason other than a lack of freedom to fight the AI's.

Re: Generic Star Hero Galactic Map Bless you Bless you Bless you!!

Re: Every good four color supers games needs: What about "The Kid", he's either a photographer or cub reporter who always needs saving with lady reporter who doesn't take any guff from anyone but also needs saving.

Re: Every good four color supers games needs: A Secret Gov't Super Agency with blaster-toting heroes and names like Lady or Major Duke!

Fantasy HERO!! I recently purchased Fantasy Hero and was wondering about converting other materials like AD&D, D&D and Rolemaster over. I know the last edition of Fantasy Hero had a conversion section but this new book doesn't.
