  1. Oops Lumiere escaped. The PCs do not have the capability to deal with her when she's awake.

  3. Friday night highlights: The PCs trace down the Plutonium gang activities to Surry Nuke Power station, where there boss, King Snake, is stealing the last of what he needed for his earthquake device. Battle at nuke plant. main reactor core ruined, Doc D will have to build device to clean up the area; plot is semi-foiled. PCs will have to track down where rest of gang and items teleported unto. Villains captured: King Snake, Lumiere, Air-Hammer Villains escaped: Sneak Thief, Wild Wind, Glacier PC not present: Mister Foot.
  4.

  5. Golden Age I am not sure what your question means....
  6. Next Adventure tonight. the bank robbery will lead to tech thieves, who will lead to the nuke power station. I'm running the old module "Trouble for Havoc"
  7. Gauis Grandiloquos was born special, and his grandmother never let him forget it. At age 13 he was deemed Scion of Jupiter, and awarded the full armor of a soldier. His great power of Felix and Aquila (4d6 of Luck, Flight and +5 Perception) made him an invaluable vanguard for the Legions, who wanted to proclaim him Emperor, but he declined, famously saying We are not become Rome, We but serve Rome.
  8. Best bits: Alien Commando's character sheet is very short on cultural and campaign items. He knows nobody, knows almost nothing, has no job or other connections, so when we were trying to nail down where he might be during any given weekday, he claimed he was living on Doc Decibel's couch, eating his food and watching his cable to learn Earth culture. And, the player was not specific about which alien race he was, so I picked Korbinite (Beta Ray Bill) which will make for some interesting fodder later on. Also, his attempt to flip the APC over botched, so I ruled that his unluck made the bumper snap off and fly out of his hands. Speed Freek broke an agent's neck and had to waste 5 phases running him down to the hospital, 12 miles away. Mister Foot would not enter combat. I had no explanation or plausible reaction to that as a GM. If the Redeemer is not careful, his summoned villains may fight more sharply than he might wish. but I guess it was interesting role-play I'm allowing players to use their action points for one-off power stunts, such as making electrical blast into chained lightning, blowing up an items to spread out damage, etc.
  9. also, no quotable quotes of the week, but there was this: https://twitter.com/Egyptoid/status/320496446166159360/photo/1 "I need you to show me here on the action figure here where the supervillain breached your armor"
  10. First adventure had, it was a hoot. Six of seven players showed. log book is here - https://sites.google.com/site/heroicsystems/Home/character-list/atl-avn-asn-log-book I fear for my players. the first psi-blast (or glue gun or laser-dazzler) will destroy them.

  13. New campaign starts tomorrow. Friday night Champions returns after a 4 year hiatus. Here's a link to https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-5p_A-dkERdRSVI18i7LJVj_5mQs7Ujhyr3_95UFpn8/edit?usp=sharing On which you will see the founding members. I have seven players! it will be crazy. I hope to generate a lot of "Quotes of the Week" I've had a good time so far just in character generation. We have 2 returning players (Doc Dec & Speedster) a "long lost cousin" back in the game group after 15 years. (Blossom) and 3 players lifted from the Rifts Group I discussed earlier (Commando, Redeemer, Tesla) plus finally get to play with a guy I've long geeked hero, but first time rolling dice together (Mr.Foot)
  14. good Lucius. also I forgot to say, part of the impetus for this power was the extremely loose definition of the word Death in the marvel universe. so we were postulating a PC who had these powers, and was sought out once a month to bring some good guy back to earth.
  15. 3} Summon the Dead: Now this is the truly weird one of the three. The idea here is to use the dead as helpers. Work with me here as several assumptions about death and afterlife must be made.... IE: the super-villain The Wrecker is dead. Our hero summons up the Wrecker (temporarily) and commands him into some situation. like rescue people form a fire, or knock out these agents robbing a bank, or help me fight crime this evening. Analysis: The wizard brings up the Wrecker, and uses him to do good deeds. This a reasonably real Wrecker, has all his skills, armor, and his crowbar, etc. He is not resurrected, he will vanish again into the afterlife at the end of the power's duration. The proper karma usage is : our wizard summons non-good people, and uses them to do good deeds. Again, self-enrichment, revenge, or other petty uses incur side-effects. Also, the deceased do not mind this treatment: because 20 minutes fighting on earth is still magnitudes better than the torments or nothingness of the afterlife they earned. Also, that 20 minutes working on earth reduces their sentence, hastening the time they can get out of Hell or equivalent, and get into Limbo or Purgatory or something better. Also, you would not do this to a good person, since they are in a better place, and have laid down the burdens of earth. Now here on this summon is where the most heinous side effects will happen on a botch. Summon something huge, or wrong, or quliphothic. Or even summon a random wrong villain, or accidentally summon a hero, or summon a useless normal whose last name rhymed with Wrecker, etc. And this a flexible power, the wizard could summon one 350 point villain for example, or ten 50 point evil agents, and use them as a squad of crime fighters temporarily. What say you ?
