  1. Re: Wow...you cant perfom a zero phase and then a full phase? Is this right?
  2. Re: Wow...you cant perfom a zero phase and then a full phase? Is this right? Not quite - you can perform Zero Phase Actions and then a Full Phase Action, but not a Full Phase Action and then Zero Phase Actions. Fifth Edition Revised, page 358, "Zero Phase Actions"
  3. Re: What gives the "rightful" king the right? The... the... the Purple Pimpernell?
  4. Re: Stegosaur at Angkor Wat? That's a Cylon skull, not a mammoth skull...
  5. Re: What are "vitals" No no. You just didn't roll enough effect... probably EGO +20 or +30, depending...
  6. Re: What are "vitals" Forget the Cods, Gil, this guy's gonna need a Sturgeon...
  7. Re: Moving Hit Locations Maybe use the Hero Action Points system in Pulp Hero to allow moving Hit Locations by one on the chart for each HAP spent?
  8. Re: "You Homo sapiens and your guns!"
  9. Re: Looking for HPA Pulp Adventure Recommendation Spence, 75+75 (or maybe 100 + 50). Kharis2000, Thanks for the ideas! I'll look in M&M and PH.
  10. Re: Looking for HPA Pulp Adventure Recommendation Whoops! I thought that there would be pre-generated PCs for the adventure. Anyone willing to share suitable characters?
  11. Re: Looking for HPA Pulp Adventure Recommendation Worked like a charm today! Downloaded and printed out.
  12. Re: "I shoot the escape pod!!!" Great Beyond, If you do cobble something together, I second Captain Obvious' suggestion that something obvious should go right or easier for the players due to their earlier good idea. Players should be rewarded for clever thinking.
  13. Re: Looking for HPA Pulp Adventure Recommendation I've tried multiple times to download Death-Zombies, without success. I'll try again later. How long does the Download stay in the User CP?
  14. Re: "You Homo sapiens and your guns!" Okay, on the second question - perhaps an RKA with a Limitation of 'Maximum Effect Is To Produce An 11- Activation and Side Effect?
  15. Re: Looking for HPA Pulp Adventure Recommendation Yah, the title enticed me to choose that adventure...
  16. Re: Durability of shotgun shells [Mad Max] Wanna find out? [/Max]
  17. Re: "I shoot the escape pod!!!" On the question of players totally zapping a planned plotline, I can't directly answer, as it hasn't happened to me on that level yet. I think that if it does, my response would be, "Well, that's why we roll dice!" and go on with it. On smaller derails, I generally congratulate the player (if the derail is done by cleverness, rather than lucky dice-rolling) - AFTER the session is over. Scrambling to determine what the villains would do in such an unplanned situation is something I enjoy. ****************************** On the Star Wars thing, the whole plot is on rails throughout the entire six movies - "It's the only way" et multiple cetera. One example - if on Tatooine needing to fix the hyperdrive, Qui Gon Jinn simply Jedi Mind-Tricked some random person into thinking that Republic credits were good and had that person buy the hyperdrive from Wattoo, there wouldn't have been a need for the "Hold your fire" line! ****************************** I rather enjoy the players coming up with things I didn't plan for. One example - a mercenary group attacked the PCs; they fought off the attack, and the mercenary sargeant took off running. The stealthy PC took off after him, and managed to pickpocket his sword and dagger, then yelled, "Surrender!" The sargeant turned and reached for his sword - not there. Then reached for his dagger - not there. The PC then displayed both weapons. His morale broken, the sargeant said, "Okay." The party ended up hiring him and the survivors of the unit - and paid the two severely injured members of handsomely. The unit served the PCs with high morale. Totally unexpected, and great roleplaying!
  18. Re: "You Homo sapiens and your guns!" On the first question, to destroy a gun I'd go with an RKA with a Limitation 'Only Affects Guns'. On the second one, thinking...
  19. Re: Looking for HPA Pulp Adventure Recommendation Thanks. Think I'll go for "Nazi Death-Zombies of the Congo".
  20. For the past couple of years I have run an "Intro to Hero System/Champions" game at DieCon, and I'm looking to run something else. Any recommendations for a Hero Plus Adventure suitable for running at a convention? I see there are several pulp adventures for sale.
  21. Re: Lucha Hero I want to play in your campaign...
  22. Re: Order of the Stick I'm glad that the bad guys can think intelligently, not just the PCs.
  23. Re: How to: Maintain shared pool of divine magic Simplest, and probably the the best way to do it.
