    What are the other villains doing while yours is gaining experience? Doing other crimes and facing other heroes, and/or taking a break in the super prison of your choice.
     
    Meanwhile, the heroes go on adventures, stop crime, gain experience, and so heroic things. While the only experience and adventure the villains see is 'don't drop the soap'.

    Goldrush Games might want to talk to the Head Men of Hero Games before they start work, just to get the "official" word on it all. Then proceed with whatever they have handy. I don't think it is automatically unusable if it is the two big books vs one book, as the rules are at the basic level the same.
     
    Just a sidebar about conversion to the other book should suffice. And then only a small section should be needed.

    I would love to see who the second or third generation heroes are. We might need group of teenage magical girl heroes.

    Humm...what is there Telemundo/Univision affiliate? Also, what digital non-news channels are in the city? Movies? Comet? Action? MeTV? Perhaps some new channels like Super (all superhero media most of the time), and Toonview (non-E.I. cartoons which you can't see on Cartoon Network).

    I used to do that same sort of thing on my old board-- screw with links to pirated material, etc.  Remember that not only do Shomshak, Heimforth, Surbrook, and others earn income as writers and creators, I have supplemented my own income that same way: makes me take a rather personal offense to piracy.  That's why I click the links: I'm the ... ahem... "jerk" (proud jerk!) who reports crap like that.  Sure, I gripe about not being able to afford this or that when I really want it; we all do.  But that's life.  I either wait until I can get it, or I do without.  My scanning project -- approved by the copyright holders, mind you-- is my first attempt at doing something about the availability of materials: I'm hoping to create a low-cost _legit_ way to make accessible some things that either are no longer out there or are cost-prohibitive.  Again: _legitimate_ access.  Not just snatching someone's hard work.

    Duke here is right. The people who write the games have family to support, food to put on the table, clothing to wear, a nice warm place to live, etc. And the publishers have all of those things also, AND a business to run AND KEEP ALIVE. Sure, I have a few bootleg files myself. But mostly, if I can afford something from Hero, and I want it, I try to purchase it.
     
    Unless your out to kill this business for some reason, don't bootleg...purchase.
     
    Imagine a world where nobody publishes anything, cause of bootlegers...no more books of any stripe at all.

    Try Classic Enimies for 4ed. The full at that time version of Terror Incorporated and The Ultimates are there.
     
    As for the current 6ed version, official Ultimates in Champions Villain Volume 2: Teams, while the new, unofficial Terror Incorporated, well someone already put a link to the store with the product already, right?

    I like to ignore the "everyone is a mage" explanation. It is not that confusing (the high mana level is the reason people get superpowers as oppose to killing themselves or being killed), it just that it seems to be lazy. Very lazy.

    The robotic head's eyes lit up.  "Alert!  Alert!  The Conquerors are currently robbing the Fifth-Third bank branch on Sixth Street!"
     
    "Do I have to go?" asked the tall, dark-haired man.  "Don't you know, Juan is a lover, not a fighter."
     
    "If we have to go, so do you," said the lovely lady Too.  She replicated, and her duplicate ran to grab a selection of martial arts weapons for the pair of femmes to use while her original grabbed spare batteries for their force field belts.  "Besides, I've seen you use that blaster pistol of yours.  You're a lover and a fighter.  Tray, could you please remotely power up the ship?"
     
    "Already done," said the robotic head.  "I am connected remotely and ready to be placed on the link-tray in the cockpit for direct interface." 
     
    Juan removed the head from it's sitting room link-tray and carried it out the door.  "And where is Fore?"
     
    He may be pretty, but he's not all that smart, thought Too-1.  Agreed, thought Too-2 over their mind link.  "If I was to hazard a guess, I'd say that he saw this coming through his 'Fore-sight' and is already in the ship, strapped in and ready to go."
     
    "That is correct," said Tray.  "He also directed me earlier to ensure the ship has a full load of fire extinguisher foam in the forward sprayers."

    "Did he say why?" asked Juan.
     
    Too-2 shook her head.  "Does he ever?  Honestly, things would be much easier if he shared what he sees in those prescient visions of his."  Too-1 added, "But noooo, doing so would 'endanger the time-flow.'  So we have to guess."  They both followed behind Juan as they ran to the ship.

    There is the world of Animu. A world where deeds of ki manipulation and martial arts are as common as guns are here. And much of the Earth one can see a much more Asian influence in the world.
     
    Rumor has it that a secret enclave exists in Animu which are developing giant mecha in order to take over the world. And while their first creations were ripped apart much like they were made of paper, it looks like they are working on it.

    In one universe, Doctor Destroyer was dying. Not even his mighty power suit could keep him alive much longer. So, Destroyer transferred his essence into a giant mecha. He then devastated his own dimension and sought other dimensions to conquer and salvage materials from.
     
    In another dimension, another earth, Professor Harmon the 3rd discovered that The Great Destroyer (as Doctor Destroyer renamed himself) had his own earth in his sites. So, he developed mecha of his own to counter the agents of The Great Destroyer. His own son pilots the Defender. There is also the Sapphire, the Ironclad, the Kinetic, and the Witchfire. When they come together, they become the Champion.
     
    They are sometimes joined by the mysterious ninja mecha the Star Seeker. He can not link up with the other mecha, but is a powerhouse in their own right. And also by the Foxbat, a former agent of the Great Destroyer who saw to much sorrow and went crazy.

    Hamsterspace is an odd pocket dimension. Anyone can put anything into Hamsterspace, but only hamsters can be taken out of Hamsterspace.
     
    It is unknown if objects are changed into hamsters, or if the dimension is simply overrun with the furry rodents.

    Then there is Melodramia. The realm of Melodrama is much like Earth in the Victorian era, but the world seems more... melodramatic. It is a daily fact that young women (usually from 16-24) are routinely abducted, tied up, and placed in danger, only to be saved in the nick of time by there boyfriends. This is considered a right of passage for young women in this world.
     
    A side effect of this place is, the longer the visitors stay here, the more they start acting like stereotypical heroes, damsels, and villains of a Victorian melodrama play.
