Re: Genres HERO GAMES may want to avoid (intended to be humorous) Does All Caps Count As A Presence Attack?!?!?!?

Re: God Package...

Re: Am I being an abhorrent munchkin? Detect: Violations of the Kantian Categorical Imperative

Re: Am I being an abhorrent munchkin? It's a comic book campaign. It detects amorphously defined Bad Stuff.

Re: Genres HERO GAMES may want to avoid (intended to be humorous) What a disturbing image.

Re: Genres HERO GAMES may want to avoid (intended to be humorous) And the players must fight hordes of evil, marauding Jews.

Re: God Package... Shouldn't Athena have some kind of owl-based powers? The owl was her symbol IIRC.

Re: Am I being an abhorrent munchkin? How'd you guys like this character anyway? I'm happier with it than I've been with any for a long time. (I'm not fishing for compliments, no matter how it appears. )

Re: GMs: Funniest Character Sheet Mistakes You've Seen. Arrows tipped with piranhas?

Re: Under the Eagle Standard--Roman HERO Yeah, the players can play brave Indian slayers.

Re: Under the Eagle Standard--Roman HERO Come to think of it, pretty much any historical setting before around 1800 or so, if rendered with historical accuracy, is stomach-turning by modern Western standards. RPG adaptations of them seldom seem to show the really dark stuff. (How many settings drawing on medieval Europe have, say, witch hunts or holy wars to kill the infidel -- human infidels I mean, not orcs?) However, to be honest, it is likely that future generations will look at us with similar revulsion as mores change.

Re: Under the Eagle Standard--Roman HERO I think the Roman Empire was too blood-soaked and generally too ugly of a place for me to feel comfortable playing in it, if it were done historically accurately. I wouldn't be gaga over playing an historically accurate Aztec either.

Re: Vast Underground Better yet, don't even bother going inside it -- get some sappers, and just excavate the thing from the top down. Dig the thing up.

Re: The Future of Small Arms You're the Ogre guy? Kewl!

Re: The Future of Small Arms Speaking of Bolos -- has anybody ever statted out an Ogre from the classic wargame, or any of the GEV stuff?

Re: Vast Underground I could never figure out why some king or whatever didn't just assemble an army and ransack the Tomb of Horrors. It wouldn't be that hard if you don't mind sacrificing a bunch of peasants.

Re: Two Silly Questions Thanks!

1. If I buy an Adder to a power, does the Adder add to the power's END cost as well? 2. Can one buy advantages and limitations for a Martial Maneuver? Seems truly cheesy, but is it possible?

Re: Character: John Carter of Mars Huh. Where else did he go?

Re: Character: John Carter of Mars Shouldn't Carter have some kind of Teleport Megascale Only Earth to Mars to represent how he can get there by just thinking about it? (IIRC -- I read these books when I was about 12.)

Re: Stupid Animal Questions AH: Sheep plus a complementary Seduction Roll is all you really need.

Re: Cluttered Universes Well, see, you're driven by something else than the profit motive. Seems like for a while there if something was trendy and Marvel could get a contract, lo and behold it would appear in a Marvel comic. The Transformers, Godzilla, Rom, ninjas galore, GI Joe, Micronauts etc. etc. etc. I never read much DC, but it doesn't seem to be that they did/do this as much.
