  1. Didn't the old (1980's) show "Street Hawk" have a minigun on a motorcycle?
  2. Never let facts get in the way of a good rant.
  3. Colossus might be a bad example. Didn't his powers first manifest when he ran in front of a tractor to save his sister?
  4. Really? I thought Bird's the word.
  5. Does misreading "Skysweeper" as "Skywalker" invalidate Cancer's question? After all, "Size matters not."
  6. The missiles are clearing the way so the Captain can hit the main target unimpeded.
  7. As much as I'd like to see Captain Atom win, does he really have any defense against Rachel's mental powers?
  8. The group I last gamed with had guys with degrees in History, English, Accounting, Computer Science, and a couple that didn't have degrees. In terms of the best mathematics ability, it was probably me (Computer Science), the History major, the guys without degrees, the English major, and finally the Accounting degree. The accountant blamed the fact that he was always using a calculator for him not being able to do simple arithmetic . . . or even to count the pips on his dice correctly.
  9. To begin with, part way through the game, or at the end of the session?
  10. I would ask if we were about to go on a tangent but I'm not sure that's possible in this thread.
  11. I seem to recall a "Red in Tooth and Claw" martial arts style in one of the books that was used for animals . . . I don't know if there was a throw or trip manuever in it. (For that matter, I'm not even sure if it was used for animals or was simply inspired by them.)

    Seven

    Do you want all seven of them to exist at the same time? If so, I'd go with Duplication with altered duplicates as suggested by aylwin13. If you just want one of them to exist at a time--which I'm just guessing at based on the "all seven have the exact same mind and personality" part--I'd use Multiform. I'm not a big fan of Summon, but Greywind is correct in that it could be used.
  13. Should I be offended that another Jeff asked if one isn't too many?
  14. I didn't believe that photo was real--I mean, the house in the background has comparatively little ice on it--but it is, apparently: http://www.newyorkupstate.com/weather/2017/03/ice_house_on_lake_ontario_is_frozen_solid_after_5_days_of_chilling_wind.html#incart_special-report
  15. From page 10 of Ultimate Martial Artist: "Characters can use some martial arts with weapons. But not all maneuvers apply to all weapons; a kick can't work with a machete, and holding a spear doesn't improve a dodge." A quick read-through of the write-ups for Fencing, Arnis/Kali/Escrima, and the rules for creating a custom martial art doesn't seem to indicate any kind of price breaks for maneuvers that are limited to being used with weapons. Fencing specifically states that it's designed for use with Blades and characters "may not buy Fencing maneuvers for other classes of weapons . . . or for use in unarmed combat". Arnis/Kali/Escrima talks about adding WF: Barehanded to allow some of the maneuvers to be done without a weapon. So, I'd basically do what you suggested originally and just specify which maneuvers can be done barehanded.
  16. I *think* that's mentioned in the Ultimate Martial Artist, but I'm at work tonight and don't have access to my books. I'll try to remember to check it in the morning.
  17. Didn't the second fail and isn't the first being tried now?
  18. Close, but more blue! Make ALL the red blue.
  19. Oh, man. If the Cardinals play Toronto this year, StL should pull out some blue unis. :-)
  20. Heh. Missouri's right there with you, Ohio.
