I find peoples adaption of their own superhero universes an intriguing and fascinating subject. Whats your universe like? who are the movers and shakers? is more a DC like place or Marvel? What elements of the official champions universe do you use? or have you eliminated or changed? do you use other games characters such as Mutants & Masterminds or Villains and Vigilantes or Heroes Unlimited? or is it a universe of characters you have completely created from whole cloth of your own?
 
Mine is a very heavy homage based combo of DC/Marvel with the serial numbers just barely scrapped off but using game characters whenever I can.
 
What about you? 

I have been running now for just over 2 years a science fiction campaign originally fully based on the Star Wars universe using Fantasy Flights Edge of the Empire game. This morphed into a hybrid Star Wars/Starfinder lore game as i got a bit burned out on the Empire vs rebels stories and wanted to branch out and use the amazing Starfinder lore and setting.
 
So the players went into Hyperspace and came out somewhere strange? It was in the Pact World System of Starfinder but still with elements of the Star Wars universe somewhat twisted. This helped me reboot the campaign into whatever i wanted as the players do not know the Starfinder lore at all and freed me from Star Wars canon do reshape and use whatever elements I wanted and jettison others if not interesting.
 
So for example Jabba the Hutt still exists in this new dimension but he currently is trying to establish his crime family on Absalom Station after a messy relocation. 
 
I have just recently also converted the game from Edge of the Empire over to the Hero System as after so much play time the system was showing a lot of cracks and the space combat system never worked how I wanted it to. This thread is going to be me sharing bit and pieces of the campaign as I flesh it out and it continues.

Hi guys,
just wanted to say hi, as I have just created a new account here.
 
I originally played Champions back in 2nd edition and played all the way through until 5th. Although I have not touched it in probably at least a good ten years, so I’m very rusty!
i have gm’d and played many other games as well and currently run a 2 year fog Star Wars game that is kind of creaking at the seams as the players are so powerful now. It’s my opinion the game does not handle heroes of experience particularly well and it’s getting harder to challenge them by the session!
 
Anyway I’m thinking of converting over to hero as it handles different power levels so well. I own 6th but not really read it as was hugely put off by the decoupling I’d figured characteristics which I always loved. How easy is it to mix and match aspects of the different editions?
 
Anyway hi guys!
