  1. what do you use contacts for or better how would you want them used
  2. just give her abilities that can be used by other
  3. gee wiz guess you beat me? wait no..... Ericka now!: follower or computer/AI 40ap extra time only for first action req a roll {she is preparing your trap in real time after all} special effect the villain has a sidekick who has been given instruction to stay out of sight and set plans in motion wont act till needed real cost 20 pts
  4. I use a pyramid system for this sort of thing building organizations like characters but that part is for an other thread anyway lets say the biggest crime group is built on 200 pts his two biggest rivels would have 175 points below that four 150 and so on I use this same idea to give heroes a since of there place in the social make up of the cite works out of for me
  5. I was wondering how far can someone fall in one segment of a turn?
  6. I would say no most of the new rules are not drastic
  7. I think duplicate still requires dups to pay the points for duplicate power
  8. to be honest I never understood why the extra points were free in the first place are they free for duplication or multi-form? not trying to start a fight just want a better grasp of the system
  9. isn't there a complication called accidental change. where the character has a chance of changing into his empowered form against his will. I would say just repurpose the complication so now when he tries to use his power roll for control if failed he just fires at random till he gets control of him self the suit give him a tool bonus to his control roll
  10. Okay tre I can kind of see your point. So hear cas has set her world at 250 for avg hero you believe superman to be a master hero so in her (in the past you 1000 will that do?) world how many points should he get to play with. Not a champions game not one of your games one of her games and part 2 let's see you build your vision lets see what you can build.
  11. Here I disagree only on scale. Superman is not only not harmed by bullets and shells, he doesn't even notice them - i.e.; he doesn't even take Stun. He's walked through military-style combat with dozens of bullets and even anti-tank missiles hitting him repeatedly with no more notice or concern than you or I would show if it was drizzling. This suggests, within the Hero System, that he needs a Resistant PD in the low 100's. (I'd probably go with about 150 rPD.) Oh, and I'd Harden it at least twice. A Hardened x2 rPD of 100 with 75% Damage Reduction would also work. Obscene? Absolutely. But then Superman isn't about playability as a PC. Superman's true role is as a shining example of what being a hero is all about: Doing what is right. Superman isn't a great hero because he has powers above and beyond those of mortal men; he's a hero because he does the morally right thing, not the easy thing. couldn't you have saved yourself a lot of posts by just saying you don't feel superman is a playable character?
  12. I don't think it is a drastic as you think by locking move speed at 2 the speed everyone already has there would be no more move inflation in 6 sec you travel 12 meters or 6 meters moving with more personal safety in mind his noncombat move lets him move 24 meters in 6 sec this is the same as the game offers right now. yes its true his max speed now has a cap on it 24 meters in 6 sec but for 5 points you can double the cap. the new powers I offered grant you extra movement abilities so speedsters don't need to buy flight only in contact with land (cheeper than run I might add)to create common speed tricks like run up walls (cling), run on water (float) as well as some other tricks found in other builds homing birds and helicopters can both hover but last time I checked most airplanes and birds cant so in your world most birds a discount on the cost of flight plus an extra cost brake for having wings? now the terrain mods that I put out are just an idea I had and I am not sure I priced the negatives right but seeing as the change environment power has these options and more this is just my try at making a tangible use of that power in source I am sure you have see the fast character (or horde of normal speed thugs be slowed down or stopped by the hero who controls earth ripping the ground up making the are hard to travel in or water guy flooding the area for the same effect have you not ? not saying my idea to solve this problem is the best just offering an idea but so I can learn and understand better please explain the flaws of my proposal in context to how you see move speed working and how you fix this issue. oh and really swimming is a ability most of us can do with a little practice just like walking in my mind that sound more like a skill to me now being able to swim as fast as a dolphin is a power
  13. t Why not just do this........ lock move speed at 2 character top speed: base move times non combat move modifier (all action checks -1 per 10 equivalent active points of added speed used note a character can buy more move to of set this you want to go faster without penalty bye more move new powers (both powers related to cling) float: hero can preform action on top layer of water will not sink hover: hero can maintain location in mid air with out risk of falling new move conditions in water ankle deep -3 to move waist deep -6 shoulder deep -9 submerged -12 new skill swim: hero gains 4 move under water (everyman 8- skill) this is just a fuff so any changes I am open to
  14. Wow using a cellular to reply sorry for the many typos
  15. Hyper/ I wasn't addressing the build by Lucius at all (for record neat build) in a post earlier I noted that a martial arts user who choose to fight "with one hand behind his back" or really any appearance of self induced hinder to make the odds more fair is doing that to mock his opponent and in my mind that is a strong presence attack in my mind and lie more. I added the idea of buying no hand fight style is more of a note of the masters training in his form arms boned in chain no issue he can just not use his arms. But then I am of the mind that a drunken master just buys ma: Kong fu ks: Kong fu then buy combat skills and name it drunken style. He is still just using Kong fu its just now his odd movement throws of his opponent.
  16. if it has no effect on the opponent.......... then why bother model it at that point isn't it just a description of his fight style so at most just add martial art style useable without use of arm(s) to his existing martial art cost 1cp. am I off base on this
  17. I my mind choosing to hinder ones self in a challenge is a form of mockery so see what you are describing as a very powerful presence attack
  18. how about Dr. Milo Tetley Presents; Meta Knowledge. or maybe Out of character or ever Caught in a monolog
  19. I see your point on name for the show. so ill work on a new name. as I noted the host was a crime fighter in the golden age one of the best if you ask around. he is on good terms with the hero community strangely for the most part the underworld is fond of him too. so I can see both heroes and non murdering villains on his show. his main use is as a way for players to get to know the world
  20. Bravo network presents: in the interrogator's office host Dr. Milo (crime buster)Tetley this is what I have so far basically its a play on in the actors studio only focused on crime fighting. I see Tetley as a retired crime fighter from the golden age who has become a professor of criminology at an ivy league college . who would be a good show guest
  21. most of my characters would just find something better to do outside of the base. hell even just put on there normal clothing and go to the mall.
  22. in my mind most limitations are just carrots to bait pc into actions that work in your story the player choose how often it comes up and how hard it is to resist acting on those impulses so in my mind there really is not room to debate if gm says what the villain is doing triggers your code your code is triggered if the player wants to not act on this trigger he just has to roll a ego check if passed he can do as he pleases but even then it haunts the back of his mind if this come up often make him bye down the limit till its paid off in points
  23. I think she needs 1. a ship to get her around 2. a small thief crew she runs with 3. loyal android 4. base: asteroid bar somewhere in uncontrolled space main hideout and smaller bases all over I see her as a master foil not from ambition as much as just good old experience
