    Question: Would your Superman lose all his powers?

     

    I always like the wording of Superman's magic limitation in DC Heroes: Abilities operate at a max of 4 APs versus magic.

    IE he was just a slightly-below normal man versus magical stuff. I didnt like the Kryptonite wording that much. (total loss)

    28) Rekationik Energy Blade

    An energy sword constructed by an ancient race of alien warriors, it serves several purposes for the wielder:

    a) it is a reasonable "light sabre", that can cut armor and flesh rather well.

    B) it gives off ultra-frequency radiation that only harms psychics and artificial intelligences.

    c) once a minute the above effects can be launched at range.

     

    a) 3d6 Killing, Armor Piercing, Hand-To-Hand. Either Zero or Continuing Charges from a battery.

    B) 3d6 Killing, Based on EMCV, Area Effect 6 meter radius, No Range, Only Affects Mentalists or Constructs

    c) A+B as an RKA, AoE 2meters, usable once every 12 phases.

    Edition: 6e or 5E

    Power Build: fudged above

    Real Cost: quite a bit, not issued to grunts.

    These aliens were religiously opposed to robots, and needed a weapon to compete with their enemies' psionics.

    Rogue Trader - House Windsor Campaign:

     

    "you see son, the reason Imperial ships are so damned huge is that they build all the hallways and doors such

    that two Dreadnaughts can comfortable waddle past each other, and then scale up from there."

     

     

    a Forge-World Ad-Mech reviewing the application of a junior mech born on a Death-World.

    "Oh very good. I see you made straight A's. On your correspondence courses."

     

     

    They are negotiating over the radio with the Lord Navigator from another ship:

    He offers: "You could spend 4 hours on our Rec-Deck."

    R.Trader: No Thanks.

    Militant: No Thank you, sir.

    Marine: "Bah, No deal"

    Missionary: "Thank you, no

    Explorator: was already headed for the shuttle bay and had to be called back.

  23. Reason for creating team.

    Re: Reason for creating team.

     

    In my J.L.Ala. game, the team was federally invited and federally funded, since the team had two responsibilities.

     

    1) the super-morgue was in there city. the big medical university studied unclaimed bodies of supers. the team provided security for the college due to the high profile contents of the forensics lab.

     

    2) the feds had built Stronghold III in the nearby mountains, and the team had to watch over it, and round up any strays.

     

    as time from these duties permitted, they fought crime.
