Re: Golden Age Champions Well, MOST of the time in the real Golden Age comics, thay faced mostly gainsters and crooks with no powers or costumes. (Batman was the exception on the costume side, but not the no powers side). The only exception which I can think up was Captian Marvel (The Big Red Cheese one), who had his shair of superpowered foes. When the Silver Age became, Marvel tried to explain and expand the 'fact' of superheros and WW2. To Marvel, thay DID go over and fight, under the banner The Invaders, and 'just now' (late 70's and early 80's) there adventures were being declasified. As for DC, thay came up with the Spear of Destiny as an excuse why there supers did not fight in WW2. Not to say thay diden't have there own superteam fighting simpsisters and agents (thay did...the renamed All-Star Squad), and there adventures were also 'just now' being declasified. Me myself, I perfer a universe of superpowered good guys and bad guys over gainsters. So, if I did an 'Golden Age Of Enimies' book, it would be some mad scientists, Boss Kong (a gainster who had his brain placed into a gorilla's body), and of course, vareous natzie agents of some power.

Re: Hypothetically and unofficially, what would you like to see in a Mecha Hero book? Well, for Mecha Hero as a whole, I would love to see the rules on "Super Robots" and "Real Robots", ect. And a few sample mecha and settings (including the 'alive mecha' samples and 'robot composed of seperate pieces which can operate sepertly and together' build). Then, we need a setting book. Finaly, we need this: HERO System Mecha Garage (Book 1 of whatever). Think of it as an Enimies book for the Mecha Hero gendra.

Re: Champions Beyond Just wondering, are the Nekojin in the book?

Re: Self Defense Course Well, that does depend on what your flavoring is. I mean, you CAN buy Dirty Infighting with a Style Disavantage, and Kung Fu without one, if you wish and the game master alowes. I myself use the definition of Martial Arts as "systimised and trainable system of combat recogniseable by others as such", while Combat Art is "a style of combat". This, for me, Martial Arts equals Style Disavantage and Combat Art not equals Style Disavantage. But your free to find your own definition. I mean no disrespect to orginised and unorginised combat, nor the people who engage in them.

Re: Hero System Good Idea/Bad Idea... Thanks for the rep.

Re: Stanley R. Teriaca's Dream Projects List. OK. Dragons are out. And I will be shure to spell "Vampire" corectly because I will make shure the computer I get has a word prosseser program with a Spell Check function.

This is more of a dream that a reality, but since I am planing on moveing (and with the move along with my mother, we are planing on getting a computer of my own), I have decided that I do want to write some books for HERO. This is my list. Feal free to coment on what I have listed. (Note, none of theas are Champions related, since I beleve that Champions would be off limits to anyone except for HERO insiders and members of Cryptic Studios). HERO System Book of Vampiers: A book on vampiers, and using them in vareous settings. Chambara HERO: A book on the Samuri setting, and on Japanies history, mythology, and culter of ferdual Japan. A big expantion of my "Sercerts of the Samuri" artical included. Prehaps some common Japanies monsters and Ninja also? HERO System Book of Demons: Like the vampier book, but with a difrent focus. HERO System Book of Dragons: See the vareous "Book of" books above. HERO System Mecha Garage: Vareous bipod vehicals for vareous gendras.

Re: Self Defense Course Well, hear are some of what I would give as "Self-Defence Combat Arts" (remember, "Combat Art" does not have a Style Disavantage, while "Martial Art" does). Escape. Basic Strike. Eye Gorge. "Basic" Throw. Grion Smash (NND attack, defence is haveing no 'sencitive areas'). "Basic" Block. "Motion" Block (block with FMove...an 'advance' manuver with some GM refuse to alow people to buy). "Get Away From Gunfire" (Dodge, trained as basic stagities on how to avoid betting shot when someone is aiming at you).

Re: Do I need the 6th Martial Arts book? Any funny MArts, like Stooge-Fu (or should that be Stooge-justu) or Bakado (Japanies which can be translated as "the way of stupidity" or "the stupid way". Basicly the ideal is to preform attacks and defences without even looking like your awair of your attacks and defences, like a certan clumsy french detective).

Re: Hero System Good Idea/Bad Idea... Good Ideal: Running a superhero charater who is also a superhero fanboy. Bad Ideal: Running a superhero charater who is also a superhero fanboy. Worse Ideal: Running a superhero charater who is also a supervillian fanboy.

Re: Female Master Villains Sorry. My bad spelling strikes again (plus lazyness). It IS Kingpin. Othoe I imagion a Spider-Ham villian named Kingpen as a pig parody of Wilson Fisk...but I disgress.

Re: THE HERO SYSTEM BESTIARY: What Do *You* Want To See? So, how much of this book will be real creatures, and how much of this would be fantastic creatures? For the core "Hero System" beast book, I would love for there to be more real life animals than fantastic creatures. But we must have our giant ape and Kaiju lizard and turtle. Prehaps an 'alien' zenomorph (ah-la the beast from the Alien movies)? I woulden't mind some aisan mithic monsters also, but save some for HERO System Aisan Beastery Edition 2, for HERO System 6.0.

Re: Female Master Villains Yes, but "The Lady of Pain" is more like a cenobite (did I get that corect...the guys from Hellrazer movies) than a goddess of evil. In fact, she is techaly not evil at all, but nutral. She gives pain to anyone who dairs worshup her, and has no plans for any type of domination.

Re: Female Master Villains

Re: Female Master Villains Well, I can defently see this happing. Except that, she is defently a behind the sceens villianess. More like Marvel's The Kingpen (manipulating all of VIPER, and running her own crinimal enterprise, using the cover of her own buisness to hide behind).

Re: Do I need the 6th Martial Arts book? And don't forget, all the combat arts for the 5 Deadly Vemons were made up and not real (I just picked up the Dragon Dinasty edition of the film yesterday). My question is, did any of my martial arts from Digital Hero make it in? I am shure that the ideal of the "improved grip" (+STR Abort manuver VS Takeaway and Disarm) made it. I would also love to see if my Energy Blast Combat Art made it also. Then again, as it said in Street Fighter "You Have A Lot To Learn. Try Again Kiddo."

Re: Horror Setting? Don't forget your Fanticy Hero book of monsters (many of them can be used as is, or even modified to make something odd for your campain). Which reminds me...do you think it is upseting that devlers willfuly go into a "monster's home" (i.e: cave system) to kill them and to loot there homes, while it is considered a horror when thay do the same to a human/elf/hafeling/whatever setelment?

Re: HERO System Martial Arts

Re: Fighting Game Hero Is this guy a cosplayer playing Dan, or is this the guy who is playing Dan for the Street Fighter Chun-Li movie? And, WTF is Dan doing in the Chun-Li movie anyways?

Re: Susano vs Marvel characters Humm...let's give my $0.02 (even thoe it has been a long time since I trolled the board). Susano'o would whip the floor with most of the Marvel guys, or simply ignore them as if thay were ants. I mean, all Sentry has is basicly a cosmic level drug adiction, finding a cosmic level drug. How simple would it be for Susano'o to 'pump' Sentry till he explodes. Of course, I haven't acualy read Orion, but reading this post makes me think he could make Son Goku AND the Monkey King pee in there paints. As for Marvel's "Big Red", let Susano'o take over the Marvel Hell. I hate the guy for messing with Spidy's marage anyways.

Re: martial Arts Comedies I don't remember if anyone mentioned it before but, My Young Auntie.

Re: Purple Powers I'll say "Elemental Darkness", or in this case, "Elemental Purpleness". Basicly what Marvel calls "Darkforce". You can cover an area with purple, push people around with solid purple force blasts, wrap them with a purple "entangle", move things with purple "TK", and other stuff. Humm...this might be what I need for the nemisis of one of the charaters I plan to do for Champions Online. My charater: Sunburn. My nemisis: Deep Pruple(?). Prehaps the name Tartrus would sound cooler for a darkness manipulator. Anyhow...

Re: The Book Of The Destroyer

Re: Odd Costume Designes Forget capes. Give me a hoop dress and puffie shoulders. Ah, the joys of RPing a charater who's costume of choice is a late 19th centery Southern Bell dress with heavy pancake makeup on her face.

Boy, Freedy shure moves in fast. He already is holding Champions Online's BBoard captive. I shure hope he dosen't try to ransom them back to themselves...
