I've read some snippets here and there that say that BotE is done, but it's getting some kind of Kickstarter thingy going to do the printing...? Is there any chance of releasing the PDF now? Some of us are PDF only kinds of folks (PDF on tablet > hardcopy --- IMHO). I don't think I'm alone as this came up in an earlier thread. Anyway, I'll buy the PDF of BotE as soon as I can, but I'll never buy the hard copy, but potentially any PDF sales would help get the printing done for those that prefer that. Just an idea. -joe

Re: Interesting Announcement: HERO System Skills Any news on this PDF? I saw it referenced in Fantasy Hero, but I don't see it for sale in the store...? Thanks! -joe

Re: 6th Edition Hero System Boo grayscale! Yay color!

Re: Book Of The Machine Available Sweet! I'll buy the bundle as soon as it's posted. Thanks, Steve!

Re: Book Of The Machine Available Awesome! Is there going to be a bundle of the print book and the PDF? Does such a bundle usually go on sale at the same time that the print book is released, or is it a "months later" type of date? Thanks!

Re: Balancing Mental Powers Yeah, but Hugh is almost right. There is a level for "Making friends look like (but not act like) enemies." It's considered a "Cosmetic Change" and only requires an EGO+1 (i.e. "Greater than EGO") effect roll. Thanks everyone for the help!

Re: Mind Control EGO+10 and EGO+20 Examples Feel free to define those as well. A "whole" example is quite useful.

So I get the EGO+30 level of Mind Control, but I'm having a hard time thinking of good examples for the +10 and +20 levels. They don't necessarily have to be combat uses, but I'd find those the most interesting. So help me out! Give me some examples of commands that your mentalist would give that should only require a +10 or +20 result on the MC effect dice. Thanks!

Re: Balancing Mental Powers ...can really be implemented? Help...

Re: Balancing Mental Powers

Re: Balancing Mental Powers I'm going to start another thread on Mind Scan in particular. It's one of those powers that really confuses me.

Re: Balancing Mental Powers 1) Not sure how agents "automatically lowers the character's effectiveness?" I think you're suggesting he'd waste time using his powers on the agents. However, were I the Metalist, I'd ignore the agents, and Mind Control/Mental Illusion the Brick, and have said Brick take out the agents. 2) Hmm ... I like that! 3) AWESOME! I hadn't thought about attacking the LOS requirement at all. 4) Yup. 5) Another AWESOME idea! 6) Yup.

Re: Balancing Mental Powers Also excellent. Thanks!
