MHI characters are pretty strong fighters.

I have no prior experience with the HERO system. I've run 2 combat sessions with my group so far - one after character generation to familiarize us all with combat, and one as part of our first real adventure.

They kicked ass and took names both times.

The first session was against a horde of wights. The second against a group of humbolt folk and some "super" humbolt folk I made.

The common theme seems to be that if MHI characters are in a large open area, they win. And automatic weapons against low DCV is deadly.

Most monsters are melee type combatants. In order to stand a chance against MHI, they need to be in close quarters. In my 2 combat experiences, every monster was dead before they could get close enough to attack.

Keep that in mind as you design your adventure. Small, cramped spaces, surprise attacks and fast moving superior numbers are a monsters best friend. Otherwise, it's too easy for the MHI players.

I could not unzip it on my Mac (10.8.4) but the command line zip worked fine. "unzip monsterhuntercharpack.zip "

I do a lot of Unix development on my Mac, so I don't remember if unzip is there by default or if I installed it with one of the many Unix utilities I have installed over the years.

It's on Amazon.com as of today,
