Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Re-watched the more exciting/interesting parts of The Two Towers and Return Of The King recently. I tend to skip the 'wandering around' parts.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? Depends on wether the rules of the universe have their own definition for 'god'. For example, it could be that it takes divine authority to resurect someone - And trying without it is what creates undead...And makes the character a 'demon'.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? Your answer can be found within. Seek the sound of two keyboards typing.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? I shall loftily ignore your ignorance in the pursuit of a sane and rational universe.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? It's a discussion thread about stating gods in general. Fantasy gods would be a subset of that.

Re: Campaign - Rhymidian Empire Works.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? Can't see a hole in that. Could use a few more 'aid to worshippers', but that's it.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? I'm sorry if I was offensive - I saw about a dozen posts all saying essentially the same thing and reacted. I'm trying to move the discussion forward.

Re: Campaign - Rhymidian Empire It needs something happening that is unconnected to anything else.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? ...I like yours better. Hilarious.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? The thread is getting repetitious. Please read to see if your point has already been made.

Re: How would you stat up gods in Hero System? Just to note, this isn't for a campaign - I just wanted to start a discussion. Very good points about the difference between a plot point and a character. On the other hand, some characters are both - Gandalf, for instance. Plus, as a GM it may be useful to know what a god can/will do - For infinite gods, they'd pretty much be the same, for practical purposes - Not couldn't change, but when you know everything, you'd naturally have reached your ideal state - You may grow, but you wouldn't shift focus. So one way would be to only stat the Psych Lims and then maybe a VPP 'Divine Power'. As for 'Only While Serving My Purposes' - Yeah, that wouldn't be a limitation - Maybe an advantage? with 'Usable Simultaneously'. Mostly, it just seems to me that if Hero System is supposed to be able to build anything well, then gods should be on that list, too.

I imagine lots of Usable By Others and range increases, along with "Only While Serving My Purposes" -1/4. Endurance reserves that refill based upon domains or worshippers or divine rank would also seem to feature. Various 'Divine understanding' knowledge powers, too.

Re: Online, real-time Hero System gaming? This discussion has now born fruit! Starting an online gaming group with that thread.

Re: Mental powers cost in VPPs The Hero Designer is almost a necessity, IMO. Unless you like writing, re-writing and erasing...

Re: Spellbusters Desolidify + entangle. They can neither move nor affect anything. Add in 'Only vs. spellcasters -1/2 or -1'...

Re: Combat Tracker program? Unfortunately, my new place lacks internet access, so getting such a thing would be a bit delayed. Thanks for the recs, though.

Re: Good resource for travel distances/day? I think you're mixing miles and km when arguing about that two-day feat.

Walking, on a ship, a-horse, good roads, bad roads, no roads, mountains, etc.... Thanks.

Re: Paladin Benetar ...Yes, that does display a lack of understanding.

I'm looking for a program that can do the following things, in order of importance: 1) Track Phase and Initiative for each character. 2) Track Body and Stun. 3) Do OCV vs. DCV rolls. 4) Do damage rolls. Thanks for any and all help. If (Found == false && LicensingProblems == false) tracker = WillMakeOwn();

Re: Captain America and Cast ...If he was standing on the ground, I call 'Marty Stu' moment.

Re: Paladin Benetar C.S. Lewis was originally an athiest, but was converted to christianity by his good friend J.R.R. Tolkien. Hence, there would be a certain disconnect between his earlier writings and his later writings.

Re: Recommendations on Str Minimum for weapons? Yes, I had - However, there's about two years (Based on my post record) between buying it and getting to use it in a game. So a refresh certainly helped, thanks.

Re: Recommendations on Str Minimum for weapons? It isn't. Choosing to set the limitation based on active points, rather than weapon weights, is. You seem to be a bit off-topic. Maybe start your own thread? I'd be interested to see how it works... ...So I can steal it, of course.
