Re: Heroes of the blood royal.. never heared of it....thanx, i will.

I was just watching a DaVinchi code thing on the history channel (jusus was married, had a daughter, church cover up for 2k years, knight templar, etc...) and it got me thinking, this could be a really cool modern/dark cahmpions idea...the last of the 'blood royal' (jesus' line) today, hunted by dark forces, has uncontrolable power (but maifest for 'good' deeds only) and doesn't realize who she/he is !! our dark champions characters stumble into this 2000 year drama and get stuck in the middle....dark forces on one side want to kill the decendant, and so do the church(s) to keep the truth buried and the world in general hasn't a clue !!! a bit sacriligious sure, but imagine the possibilities for a ripping good camapign...

Re: Largest Space Chart Design lets see... working in autocad i;m doing up a starchart that fits 24x36...is that big enough? good for usable deck plans too......

here are some notes for 50 lt years around sol (our sun)...so, whip out those Star HERO books and enjoy also is some 12 lt year stuff i'm including...

Re: Fourth Age Hero there is a book that you might find worth looking into, the atlas of middle earth. It can be found at amazon.com (used too), i read through it at borders, plainer english that the back of ROTHK (return of the king), maps, migration, etc....similar to living greyhawk book, but not a really a gaming resource (pretty close though...) I was toying with the idea of getting it myself to try ME write ups...... I think this thread should be called : 'Heroes of Middle earth' or 'ME HERO' ....

Re: Unused Bird/Flying Creature Motifs I NEW I HAD THE SPELL'N WRONG......DANGNABIT!!!

Re: Sex as a skill ofcourse: seduction skill use COM...ability role as a mod: char/5+9 (remember +1 mod to seduction per +2 of abilty role made by (think of a Com role as primping and preening for the big test...to look your best) and lets try something from P.49 (skill levels)..I like to call : Sexual skill levels (2 pt +1w/Com role, 3 pt +1w/seduction, 5 pt +1w/ {ahem}"interpersonal" skills)...to reflect 'training' or a natural leaning to this feild of endevour..... how's that?

Re: Star Blazers/Capt. Harlock setting. He could of put a harlock(ish) great grand parent in as one of the crew...a background spacehand or something......'foreshadowing' gotta luv it.

Re: TSR Alternity my mistake...the camapign i had was the Stardrive setting that had darkmatter powerplants...the spooky saetting was the darkmatter campaign (the one I passed on getting...) silly me.....

Re: Star Blazers/Capt. Harlock setting. nononononononononononono.............. if your going to do Capt Harlock, you'll need Emeraldis and the galaxy Express 999. I just cannot see captain Harlock going agaist Gamalon....That's what the yamato is for, it was the ONLY ship big and bad enough to do it... besides, Captain Harlock's time period was way in the future from Yamato..... there, my $.02.....

Re: TSR Alternity T$R had a scifi system (not gamma world) that was the AD&D 'mechanic' but it flopped also...anyone remember Buck Rogers in the XXV century? alternity used a kinda funky add/ subtract dice system (base dice) -/+ 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, etc... vs a target number ....once gotten used to, actually made sense....thought some of PC species where a bit funky...like the mechaus, a cybernetic species that once made a fellow species that lived on a world in their home system go extinct, now they all have this collective guilt over it that has become a personailty trait....the wren I like, the sesheyan too. The system did better with tech/ships, etc than D20 Future thats for sure....IMHO Only had the darkmatter campaign book, not that x-files/conspiracy one that they put out....I like the clicks

Re: Pirates {er, HEROES!} of Dark Water ! ok, I stand corrected...its a 90's show but still a cool idea for a campaign.

Re: Pirates {er, HEROES!} of Dark Water ! Found more info try this: http://www.piratesofdarkwater.net/

Its the 80's and a short cartoon (21 episodes) with an interesting campaign idea is on T.V. ..."Pirates of Darkwater" I had forget about this show until I found this site: http://www.deathstar.org/~krlipka/pirates/playguide.html so here it is, written for DnD, but I think using a REAL game system (hero...)would work better...... whatja' think?
