That’s not Charlie Brown, that’s Linus. Check the hairline and blue blanket. Linus never did the kite-eating tree thing. Somebody in the Parks & Rec Dept. made a boo-boo. You beat me to the punch Milord, Good game.🥊

Superman debuted in the 1930’s. The Fantastic Four in the ‘60’s. Origins get updated all the time WHO CARES! ! ! This is not about write-ups. The original question I was trying to raise is.... Considering the current world situation, is using a team of Soviet “Bad Guys” to give players a way of working out any frustrations about what’s happening in the news in bad taste?

Every time I see this, about halfway thru I’m screaming “YOU FOOL!!” along with everybody else.🥸

Nobody said it would have to be a straight out of the book version. A lot of them if not all could be updated to the present day and more militaristic viewpoint Russia seems to be going with now.

It was a supplement book from years gone by of a team of heroes for the Soviet Govt. Some were loyal Communists and good folks some were Commie bastids. Others were just stuck with the situation for one reason or another. A nice mix of characters and power levels. I believe it was an Arron Allston creation, but I could be wrong. 🎼Hey baby, what’s that sound. Everybody look at what’s goin’ down🎶 Putin’s in charge and the Cold War 2.0 is coming down the road.

ALL HAIL THE BIG BLUE BOOK!!! ONE BOOK TO RULE THEM ALL, AND IN THE DARKNESS BIND THEM!!!

I just had a thought and didn’t want it to die of loneliness.... What does anyone currently GM’ing a game think of the idea of running an adventure with Red Doom? Would that be a useful venting of frustrations or an exercise in bad taste?

I am of Irish decent and so pale I make Jim Gaffigan look like Samuel L. Jackson and I wouldn’t drink that sludge with your esophagus.

You flunked the little buggers....right?

His rendition of the “Aristocrats” joke helped break the sadness after 9/11. He deserves a place in comedy heaven for that alone.

Where exactly does that line (for HER to choose) start? ‘Cause I’ve got a feeling it’s gonna be a bloody long one, and I want to get there early with my camping gear.😈

Don’t forget the limitation “Must have bodily opening to enter thru.” That leaves out characters like Iron Man and Silver Surfer.😇

Keep the faith, baby. ...else what’s a heaven for?

I enjoy this game a lot, but that’s never gonna happen. DC is owned by a MAJOR corporation, and the kind of cash that would be involved to buy the rights for an RPG would probably be a half a million at least. All this goes for Marvel as well. Why do you ask though? If you want a game set in the DC universe, just do it. There are a lot of sites and threads that have write-ups for DC’s characters and DC has an official website that will give you all the backround information you could ever use on your PC’s, NPC’s and locations. And any particular questions you have can get answered in places like this. As long as you’re not making and selling a game for profit all this come under the “Fair Use” exemption of copyright law.

Look around the world. (Like Florida) Taking away the books is the first step in taking away the freedom.

How about a contest for everybody who isn’t already a Champions contributor on the site. Submit a nice generic Champions adventure for anywhere from 4-8 players of beginning levels. The senior members will vote on the three best that will be put in the free download section. The winners get bragging rights as they will be an official writer for Champions New GM’s have some games to start their campaigns on, thus bringing in more players who might hopefully spend some cash on material down the line. So in the end all this might put some money in pockets and keep the game alive at the same time.

Because I’m sorry to say, cruel and stupid never goes away. It may change its address, wear different clothes and skin colors and speak a new language, but it never goes away.

If a diner wishes a beverage with ice cream & milk will there be a whole lot of shaking going on?

There are any number of political websites on the web. Please do not try to turn this into one. This conversation is about Monetary Systems in a Fantasy Post Apocalyptic World. If you want to discuss your views about gun control....take it elsewhere. At least to a more appropriate thread.

Yes! I’ve always been a big fan and I’ve enjoyed Jeffrey Donovan’s work since he was in Burn Notice. The character of the A.D.A. is a bit of a P.C. weenie. I want another “Hang ‘em High McCoy type.

While they may have some value as a perceived basis for re-establishing a monetary system they are useless in and of themselves to back that up. Coins during the Old Western era for instance were made of solid gold, silver or copper. However, current American coinage have little to no valuable metals in them. However they are full of good quality base metals with relatively low melting points. Making them useful for soldering as well as in the making of small cast metal objects like jewelry.

How tough could this stuff be to make....I saw Captain Kirk do it in about in an hour, shoot the Gorn and still have time for commercials.😜🖖 (Just kidding, I know how finicky the procedure can get in real life.)

I never said it couldn’t be done, it’s just a trope of fantasy movies that’s always bugged me. 😜

How about being able to use a reflecting surface to stop something that mirrors wouldn’t stop...like fireballs or bolts of lightning?
