Re: Guyver: Bioboosted Armor All right, Dust Raven. Here ya go.

Re: Guyver: Biobooster Armor Here's a 350-point, Championized version of Guyver 1, suitable for a four-color style campaign. I've toned his powers and abiliities down a bit, and converted most of his killing attacks to normal damage attacks. He doesn't have much in the way of non-combat related skills, but he's only a 17 y.o. highschool student.

Re: Guyver: Bioboosted Armor Bloodstone, the reason I bought the sword power twice is because the Guyver has a bad habit of having at least one of his swords (and some of his other powers) destroyed while in combat, esp., when he's fighting the big boys such as the hyper-zoanoids, other guyvers, and zoalords. To simulate having some of his powers temporarily disabled in this way, I bought them with a -1/4 restrainable limitaion. When an attacker hits a guyver and does BODY damage in a location of the guyver's body that houses a restrainable power, the attacker can choose to disable that power. This, of course, requires the use of the hit location table, at least to determine where the attack landed; furthermore, the attacker does not necessarily need to target the power specifically. If an attack does BODY in the appropriate location, even if purely by chance, the power can be "restrained." The guyver regains the use of the "restrained" power once he regenerates all his BODY back.

Re: Guyver: Bioboosted Armor I based these Guyver adaptations on the Manga anime "The Guyver: Biobooster Armor," representing the characters' abilities around the time period of chapter 6 "Terminal Battle--The Fall of Chronos Japan." Up to that point, the Guyvers never seemed to perform more than one sword slash per phase. Conversely, I probably would build one of the members of Hyper-zoanoid Team 5--Thancrus--so that he could use both his swords in a multi-power attack. By the way, just in case it's not clear, the writeup for Guyver--Self-defense Mode is the writeup for the "followers" for both Guyver 1 and Shadow Guyver 3. The special effect is that the follower is the Guyver's own control medal, a super-sophisticated computer, which takes possession of the Guyver's body in case the Guyver's BODY drops to zero (ex., his brain is destroyed by an attack); Or, if the control medal is ripped from the Guyver's forehead, the follower--the control medal--will clone a new body for the Guyver (because the old body will self-destruct without the control medal).

Re: Guyver: Bioboosted Armor Oops! I just noticed that the format that I'm using is automatically showing the Bioboosted characteristics added in, and not showing the unmodified human characteristics. Sorry.
