  1. Re: Longest Running Thread EVER You should try that out over on the Troll thread. No one seems to be responding much.
  2. Re: Name My Supervillian! Doctor Count! Count Carpathia, but then you have to deal with people bringing up European Enemies...
  3. Re: Down with active points I tend to agree. I see HA as a good power when used with moderation, but that applies to many things. When it was at 3 points we disallowed it in VPPs etc... Yea, when added to STR it can still be way abused. Well, my 145 STR Brick, Scales, had a 60 point VPP, 65 dbl hard PD&ED and 1/2 damage reduction. He was probably the worst of the lot for most things though another poster Chromatic had a martial artists that was close. When Sam allowed us to twid out we could be really disgusting. The worst was when Sam was trying to just over power us and we kept winning anyway. So he brought in Magivac. 600 point VPP. When he threw the 40d6 killing explosion and Chromatic Dragon & Scales were still standing after that, he said that was the last combat he'd run for the Protectors. (Which was fine with us). The other group, The Liberators, who were a team in a Blade Runner/Star Wars/Dreadstar future were sometimes worse, but mainly because we didn't use many straight up powers. My character, Road Runner was just a very good move-by artist. 25d6 per hit, up to 29 OCV. He's the character that would do 1000d6 in a rnd with without slowing down combat. I was incredibly fast at counting dice. By that point we only used these teams when there was a galactic threat. Though many from the Protectors were used as patrons.
  4. Re: Down with active points I think that's why I like the current cost of Hand attack having the higher AP than 3 points. Back in college when we were playing some of our megateams we wondered what the various special effects were when someone threw a 45d6 haymaker, etc... and came up with similar effects. Joked that one of the biggest expenses of the team were enviromental cleanup. By that point we were rarely fighting villians close by any NPCs
  5. Re: Why can't Teleport do the Move attacks? I like Hugh's idea of the EB Autofire, Selective area best. Probably some limitations to think of are Damage Shields and perhaps making the teleporter do as part of a teleport. So the whole manuever would be a full phase. Grabbing weapons and the like could be stretching. Expensive if you want to do both in the same phase as a multi attack. Just putting an adder on tport (or autofire) could be an elegant way as well, though possibly under costed.
  6. Re: Musings on Random Musings Good luck. Hope the storm does little to remember it by.
  7. Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I do not want to see the dispenser.

    Tunguska Try-Outs?

    Re: Tunguska Try-Outs? My game which has been on hold for a year now, (gah!), has a technocracy that is based right on the blast site. Hasn't been explored at all yet.
  9. Re: Musings on Random Musings I do all the time. I've deleted posts after I submitted them as well.
  10. Re: The Last Word Hmm. Good one. Nice to see around as well.
  11. Re: The Last Word #1400 isn't a number that gets celebrated enough.
  12. Re: Clix mod challenge Woo hoo! Old Outline pose! I always liked that one.
  13. Re: Musings on Random Musings There was just a show on Discovery about stuff. Accident preventions and how they test various things (Watching trucks impact bridges in odd ways was fun), but they covered body armor. And they showed this one cop being shot. He survived thankfully, but he squealed like a girl. Understandable, but they showed this sequence about five times.
  14. Re: Musings on Random Musings John T, what the heck is that as your avatar?
  15. Re: Musings on Random Musings Oh sure. Try to keep him here longer. Vangaard00, hope it gets better.
  16. Re: Musings on Random Musings Aw. Come on, Mandy is finally back! Welcome back! seriously, we know who "she" is
  17. Re: Hex Grids/Maps If only there was a game company that would supply some on their Free Stuff page Ah, BMP format. Are you sure you want BMP? While most of the stuff is in PDF, the Basic set does include a jpg.
  18. Re: Musings on Random Musings Things that make you go "Hmmmm" There are only a few people I'm think of as real, but I've got too many RL issues to worry about some random electrons.
  19. Re: Nudity and Sex in comics books
  20. Re: Knockback Reduction Tech's suggestion is exactly what I would of posted.
  21. Re: The Last Word The Last Word is forum amusing! Bazza!
