    Seems like a great set-up, particularly since you're not using Marvel Thor. 

     

    My only recommendation, if you are planning on the confusion a language barrier can bring, is that you teach bulldozer whatever language Thor is using.  As they're engaged in a drinking contest, at least the two of them have a method of communicating. 

    Loki most likely has a simple spell for Dozer to communicate with Thor

    Menton would almost certainly attempt to mentally control some or all of his "colleagues," and few of the villains listed above have enough mental resources to resist him. No other master villain would join him out of fear of being taken over. However, in the past I did propose such an alliance being formed by Menton, which you can read about here: Birth of RAVEN. But that would require Menton, and most other Champions master villains, to be played as more sane and balanced than they're usually described.

     

    Out of official Champions Universe canon, the likeliest person to form such a group would be Holocaust. Per his history in Champions Villains Volume One he often hires mercenary supervillains to help him with various schemes, since he lacks a steady support organization. In fact, "In 2006 Holocaust briefly put together a team of villains he called “the Alliance” to fight the Champions. Members included Ankylosaur, the Basilisk, Esper, Fenris, Frag, Freakshow, Leviathan, Lodestone, Ogre, Riptide, Tesseract, and Thunderbolt II. Their scheme didn’t work out, but he remains on good terms with all of them." (CV 1 p. 49) Other villains he's described as working with in the past, and continues to cooperate with, include Cybermind, Gargantua, Gravitar, Kinematik, Mechassassin, the Steel Commando, and Stormfront, as well as the villain teams, the Crimelords and the Ultimates.

     

    (Although honestly, with his Personality description emphasizing his arrogance, thin skin, quick temper, lack of restraint, and penchant for killing people who so much as annoy him, I'm amazed so many villains are willing to work for him again. Maybe he particularly respects other powerful people.)
     

    I just finished reading Birth of Raven and i seen a lot of Super Villain teams but that team sent a shiver down my spine and i thank you as i am going to use them in my setting.Nicely written and again thanks

    I can't see Menton joining up.  He seems to be insufferably arrogant to a degree that none those "egos" would put up with him.  I have a hard time seeing Menton being convinced that he would need to be among "equals."  He would insist on treating them more like the "help"; kinda like he was when he was dealing with PSI before his incarceration.  Dude is a control freak!

     

    Ah, isn't Baron Nihil a Nazi and Joseph Otanga an African.  Unless I have seriously misunderstood what it means to be a Nazi, there might be issues.

     

    Doctor Yin Wu is a luddite in the extreme.  Dude has a Psychological Complication (Common, Strong) for his hatred of technology.  He would probably have a hard time working with Warlord and Interface.  There's also that despising Westerner's thing.

     

    It would be fun to watch the fireworks in that group.  I think instead of fighting them, the good guys should grab some popcorn and coke and watch the show. 

    I think master villains might not be the way to go,To much ego and after Luther,Braniac,Sinestro and Grodd most of them are 2nd tier villains,Plus you need that one villain who not only leads but keeps the others in line.

  4. When the lights go out in the big game and the generator back ups are not kicking in Spotlight lights up the big game.He is one of the most powerful and popular heroes(the sports and concert scene loves him and he sold more toys and Jerseys than the top 10 sports players combined)Some even say a certain Patriots QB wife was going to leave her husband for him.

  5. I am working on a story arch where like Vandal Savage sends his younger self the technology to win WW 2 (JL animation style)Dr. Destroyer pulls the same thing and the only ones to stand against him  is a Freedom Fighters type of group.Like Earth 4(i think that was the#).One of the members get a hold of the time travel tech but instead opens a dimension rift to my currant world.

    Is this thread supposed to be GMs / players describing favorite plots they've run through previously?  Or to refine the one you've detailed above?

    GMs/players thread but it could go either way
