Re: Could you be a spy? I saw this when they aired it on PBS 3-4 months ago. I thought it was really good.

Re: Predators: who else found the 'Easter Egg'? What is the Easter Egg in Dark Champions?

Re: What do you consider “Modern Paranormal”? I would say that the show Supernatural is the perfect example.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... So we finished one of the games we've been playing for a while. In this one, which we call Pantheon, we all play a god of some thing. They are 350pt characters in a fantasy world where the mightiest of the mighty is maybe 250pts. Our Characters are: Jol God Of Health and Vitality (Mainly various Aid and Healing powers) Cor'na'kon God Of Flame and Ash (Typical Fire Powers) Fheo (Me) God Of Chaos (A Big Honkin VPP) Cloran God Of Secrets and Truth (Mental Powers) So we are inside the tree that is at the center of the universe. We are trying to stop our enemies from releasing Time from her chains. Our main enemy is the God of Hate, Jorkash. Allied with Jorkash is the God of Magic and the God of Mountains. If they release Time she will side with them to fufill a vow she made when she was imprisoned. If she gets free then we lose and Jorkash will get to remake the universe how he wishes. The battle is fierce, we stand against and defeat more then twenty monsters (which we later found out were built on 500pts apiece!) and we have taken out both the God of Mountains and the God of Magic. Jorkash remains standing. He spent most of the battle (which took 12-15 turns to get to this point) casting his Wall of Blackest Hate (A doozy of a FW). We coordinate our attacks and we still can't break through it. The GM says we have ten minutes (Real World, he even set an egg timer) to figure out a way to get past it or bring it down. So we are all searching around trying to find something to use, stones of power, weapons, anything. Time is getting low when I have an idea. I use my VPP to create a power that will dispel his Force Wall for sure (200d6 Dispel using standard effect) but will also kill my character and make it impossible to revive him. I cast it and while my character is being rent from the universe I say "Jorkash, my brothers will have a moment of your time. "

Re: The Hanzo sword At the very least it needs a level or two of Hardened on it, maybe Armor Piercing as well.

Re: Weekend Warriors -- Campaign Log Donkey Punch? Thats just wrong. Rep for these great write-ups though. EDIT: Once I can rep you again that is.

I have a character who we will call Healo. Healo has this power: Healing Time: 10d6 Healing (Heals Body), 0 end, constant, Trigger, set trigger (When Segement 8 occurs), standard effect, self only If Healo set this power up to go off at its appointed time in phase 3 but then Mr. Killjoy kills Healo in phase 6. What happens in Segment 8 when that power goes off?

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... We just defeated the last group of guards that were preventing us from getting inside the temple of the void where we can destroy this evil amulet we've been safeguarding until we can destroy it for 2 years (in game). The guards were tough and we were already weak from fighting the other guards and such. Krage (Wizard): "Now we can finally destroy the amulet...Where is the amulet? Gora what did you do with it?" Gora (Barbarian):You told me to keep it safe. Peter (Paladin):So what do you do with it? Gora: I put it on. Gora is a PC. Was a PC I should say.

Re: WWYCD: The True Champion has Arrived! Gregory Cauldron: Gregory would volunteer to be the very first person to fight the Champion. He has 13 STR and with his FF has a PD of 22. He'd win in a heart beat. He'd just use his Extra Dimensional Movement power to send The Champion to either a Hell Dimension or he'd send him to the Netherworld. Gregory is very honorable and wouldn't dream of doing something like that under any other circumstances except for that threat about destroying the Earth. Thats not cricket.

Re: Doctor Destroyer write up I'm not sure if anyone can post it (DOJ might not like that) but I know you can find his write up in the Conquerors Killers and Crooks book which you can buy as a PDF in the online store.

Re: Woot! What I meant was that my game is in the Dark Champions Genre, its normal people who are armed vigilantes taking out the Triads and the Yakuzas. But now I'll have the book which, as you said should help alot.

Re: Supermax Prisons in Europe I only have one Meta Supermax prison in Europe. Its called the Tower and its located in England. It is a very large tower (duh) it is thirty stories tall and has seven sub basements. Its guarded round the clock by soldiers in advanced Power Armor backed up by several superheroes and the British Government's official super team. In case of mass breakout the Tower has more then fourteen tons of C4 contained within it and the surrounding country side is a mine field. The mines are antitank mines.

I just ordered Dark Champions from the Online Store! This should really help me improve my Dark Champions game, The Gunman of Gangland.

Re: Low recoil gun-fu Is there a way I can rep Tim Bradley?

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... In our Sci-Fi game I play a robot who is based off of HK-47 from Knights Of The Old Republic. I fill the combat expert role. Anyways we found a ship adrift in space the people on it where alive but there engines had been destroyed when they fought off a pirate attack. The pirate group was one we had been up against before so we helped the stranded ship. We got them to a hidden place and gave them what they would need to fix their engines. Then we went back to where we found them to salvage what we could from the wrecked pirate ship. Long story short we get captured. We get taken to Captain Vess and he starts into a long speech about how he should kill us now for helping his enemies and how he still owes us for what we did to him last time. Then he finishes by saying if we tell him where the other ship is he'll let us go and call it even and forgive us for defying him. The he was waiting expectently for our answer. Me: I'm sorry, I turned off my audio receptors, were you saying something?

Re: Stargate Question I think it was to make sure that the humans don't abuse the technology or blow themselves up by being stupid.

Re: Vehicle Help Any suggestions on what I should add or subtract to change it from a Kawsaki type (are they called street motorcycles?) to a Harley type or a chopper?

I have had the VIPER: Coils Of The Serpent, book for a while but I haven't really gotten to use it yet. Now I'm going to be using it, and VIPER in a new campaign. I've decided to create an elite VIPER squadron called the Hell Rattlers that are bikers. There is a VIPER Cycle in the vehicle section of the book but its a motorcycle like the Kawasaki Ninja style of Motorcycle not a Harley Davidson like I want. My question is, A) Should I just use the stats for the VIPER Cycle and just use a different picture, or Write Up a new Vehicle? If you think I should write up a new vehicle suggestions would be apreciated, so would write ups for that matter.

Re: Little Help - Ground Exploration Vehicle. Well I don't think a Flash vs Radio is the way to do it. I'd go with Images vs Radio, only to produce a single Image (S.O.S. [Current Location] S.O.S.). I'd also have its charge last a whole lot longer, a week at least.

Re: xialin showdown Make sure to check out the Wikipedia page for Xiaolin Showdown, it has an insane amount of information. It lists every shen gong wu in the series and what it does if it was used in the show.

Okay so I'm working on a new Fantasy world and I hae decided that I want people who use magic to have to draw power(END) from force lines before they can cast any spells, burning Stun is not an option. What would be the best way to simulate drawing and then using power from your surroundings? I was thinking of doing it like this; All those who want to use magic get the following powers for free. Draw Power End Reserve (0 END 0 REC) Draw Power 1d6 Aid End Reserve (All goes to END), all effects completely fade at the end of Phase 12 From what I understand of Aid and how it will relate to End Reserve if they roll a 3 on their Aid die they will get 30 END in their End Reserve. Is that right? Now I also want advanced magic users to be able to store the power they draw from the surroundings. I had thought of using End Reserve for this too but I can't think of a good way to do this. Any suggestions for this? Or any suggestions on a better way to do what I outlined above? EDIT: It should be noted that they can't use their own personal END to power magic.

Re: Show me the Water Powers Oo I just thought of this one: Oceanic Pillars 15d6 EB, Area Effect 30" Radius, selective, continuous, 2 handed Gestures, physical manifestation The SFX are a number of massive pillars of water that the user can maneuver about and use to smash various targets with. Of course you can reduce the power of this to fit it into a 60pt Multipower. I'd recomend reducing the number of dice and starting with a simple 1 hex Area Effect, definetly ditch the continous for now, she can put that back on with EXP.

Re: The Professions of Arms Probably would let the character make crude maps of places he's been, no where near as good as somebody with cartography. I also think it would act as a complimentary skill when trying to use navigation to get around obstacles. "Well we need to get to the top of the ridge, but from my expierence I'd bet will find an easy way up aways away from the river." ITs the difference between this; You could also use it for some culture knowledge. Gary rolls his CuK: Dengak 12- he rolls a 14 and accidentally insults the chieftian's mother. Gary is served for dinner. And this; Gary rolls his CuK: Dengak 12- he rolls a 14 and fails but since he has PS:Explorer he rolls that at -2. He makes his roll and realizes that the Dengak are very similar to the Lokgam, he'd better spit on his hand before he greets the chief!
