Re: 1000 Star HERO Weapons
That is a good concept' date=' but what science fiction sfx does it use?[/quote']sounds like a MAGNETOMICAL SYSTEMIC EXOPACITOR.
but it could be the old ATMOSPHERIC WAVEFRONT ACTUATOR
{The Old Wave-Motion Gun}
but given that it erodes the confidence as well I've decided its an AMBIENT NANO-DE-COUPLER.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
"Yes' date=' I agree to play RIFTS." [/font']That is the quote of the week in my game group.There are two gaming stores in my town. I game at the bigger one, but I am also friendly with the
owner of the one close to my house, we used to game together.
He asked what I was into lately, cause he watches what I buy.
So I told him I was in a RIFTS game, with different people.
He just stared at me, knowing my preferences and history.
So I told him why. I'm just going along for a few months, then I will do
my best to channel them into Champions.
Do they know this is why you're there?
No.
So you're poaching ?
Yeah.
That's like an issue of Knights of the Dinner Table.
Yep, I'm recruiting from the Black Hands.
Much laughter.

Re: Lego convention game
if not full character sheets in advance (difficult with modular pieces) than perhaps
3x5 cards with packages on them (Sniper, Space man, Knight, Alien, Chieftain, Shaman, etc.
Then players would get three cards based on their torso, head, weapon (or some other criteria)
and then 90% of their character would eb done.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
from the aforementioned RIFTS game:
"something's wrong with those juicers, they're like EXTRA twitchy"
Times are tough after the Tollkeen War. You see a vagrant holding a sign that says Will NPC for Food
My character is a speedy dude, with High Dex and obscene ground movement rate.
The enemy Juicer tossed a grenade into our town's general store as an act of anarchy.
When it did not immediately explode, I told the GM I was going in there, to see if I could
toss the grenade where it would do no harm. I made all the dice rolls, so I was the hero, right?
Well the GM made about 3 extra dice rolls. When asked why, he said
GM: "As far as you know, no bystanders were hiding from the fight where you threw the grenade"
Me: "and for that, we thank you."

Re: Galactic Champions
I guess the other thing is to enforce team jobs.
Faceman, Fixer, Fighter, Getaway/Transport, Scientist.
with a higher amount of points people may want to generalize, but for the fun
of all, make them specialize. Then you as GM can make scenarios where each player
can have their turn being the one to save the day with their specialty.

Re: Fort Knox Has Been Robbed
White Knite is a trained detective, with empathy, and he can make
sensors with his VPP.
First he would see if anyone on staff was lying or feeling guilty.
Then he would explore the big angles, since he's used to big space-faring crimes.
If things got totally desperate he would attempt time-travel, just to oberve the crime.

Uses Inventor Skill;
from Ant-Man; he'd carry a pocket full of "useful items" and then unshrink one as needed.
mundane stuff, but bulky. Like to cut open a sewer pipe, pop a vault door, light up the whole sky.
The skill roll represented "did he have the right item" pre-shrunk or not.

Re: Your Not Any Hero Of Note Unless You Have Cross-Time Versions Of Yourself.
I think what the OP wants people to do is describe (similar to a WWYCD)
this thread is a "What would your parallel universe version of your character be like?"
so if your character was JERSEY DEVIL,
then the six facets would be like
1)Backworld : Seaside Angel, a gal with wings who just barely manages to do good.
2) Gorillaworld: The Hoboken Hairball, a winged moneky who fights crime
3) Saureanworld: Jurassic Devil, a large carnosaur that goes berserk and is immune to non-silver weapons.
4) Steampunkworld: Lady Whitechapel, a detective who taps into something supernatural for crimefighting.
5) Cowboyworld: Dust Devil, an ordinary cowgirl followed by the tormented, whom she uses to solve mysteries.
6) Crossgenderworld: This male Jersey Devil, would be a lot like the Etrigan/Jason combo.
Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
RIFTS
Our juicer is also a titan, so we had to get a bigger vehicle,
that we lovingly nicknamed the deuce-n-three-quarters
The super-mage was driving, and casting electrical attacks from the drivers seat:
Cyborg: now the whole truck smells like ozone.
Juicer: oh, I thought the cyborg had gas.
the Tech Wizard is ambushed by a pack of Psi-Stalkers, who creepily describe him as delicious.
other player: on the astral plane, your aura looks like a pack of smarties.[/url=http://www.candy.com/assets/images/venimg/cede%20candy/smarties.jpg]
Later in the combat, the Tech Wizard has completely run out of action points,
and is being dragged off the battlefield.
The GM suggested that, if it lives, he should rename his character Flaily McFailson.
My character is the roguish type, and has been stealing, looting, and palming items since our first adventure.
Our group is traveling to the next town, looking for our contact. Later on we come across a barricade across the road,
and our way is blocked by some gentlemen in armor. My character is in the back bed of the truck, resting.
The cyborg is negotiating with the men. I heard the GM say "There's a thief using this road" so, feeling paranoid,
I draw my matching pistols, and signal the juicer (also in back) that the shyte is about to hit the fan.
This being a post-apocalyptic wasteland, that there was a fight was no surprise, really.
But later the GM wondered why it had escalated so stinking quickly, he was genuinely curious.
It turns out he had actually said "There's a fee for using this road" and a simple bribe would have gotten us by.
