  1. I was looking at the old sourcebook, Strike Force, and found that the characters had been updated to 5th online. I was looking for the name of the sourcebook, or a link, to the Protectors. There was a fire projector, Helios, and a character named Ace. Can anyone help?
  2. Did anyone ever create an index for the run of Digital Hero?
  3. Re: Ben 10: Alien Force Well, we all know more about Gwens powers since "littles girls are made of.." PURE ENERGY os she comes from a witchworld/Q continuum type of world. This REALLY opens up her possibilities in the future, for example: We know that if she gets "killed" it'll probably just convert her to her 'natural' form (if Granma is correct in her thinking).
  4. Re: Power Description It's a tricky thing to get your head around, right? I like the broadcastpoint thing, but there must be more, what about knowing the frequency channel you are listening to, who is broadcasting, etc.,
  5. How would you describe the effect of Discriminatory on High range radio perception?
  6. Re: Penalty skill lvl question the current rules stae that you can't use PSL to offset combat maneuvers, so what is the best alternative to this? e.g.:8 pt combat lvls with the limitation:only to offset combat maneuver penalties (and what would that limit be? -1?)
  7. How would you handle offsetting negative modifier on any combat maneuver? I know Penalty skill levels are not applicable, but with the new rules coming out, can you suggest a method? Maybe buying combat levels with a limitation: only to offset negative combat maneuvers? Or is that broken?
  8. Re: Question on Power Effect Leaping doesn't have that "control throughout" modifier. e.g. in the middle of running you could dodge obstacles that pop up. In mid leap, you are virtually "uncontrolled" so objects popping up...no way to avoid. Imagine the sky filled with Fliers moving around, constantly. to hit one of the flying targets, you could leap, but you could get smacked en route with no way to help it. Does this explain better?
  9. In my campaign I have a "Perfect Physical specimen" type character who wants to buy an attack which simulates him moving up to a character,strike, and move back to his original position. I have seen this defined as a type of stretching e.g. "attack only" "no noncombat" "only vs targets within round trip of full move (or half move)", "only for damage". He also has some movement powers like flight-"only over mostly level surfaces", and Leaping. My point of contention is that his flights and movement powers all are over "mostly level" surfaces. Keeping in mind the description of the power (moving up to a character,strike, and move back to his original position) and the rules for Leaping, Could this character make attacks vs hovering characters? [susano, where art thou?]
  10. Re: Seeking a character name for a Puerto Rican teleporter ok..Viajero---it means traveller
  11. Re: Casting "Champions Universe: The Motion Picture" Sorry, but Adam West to play Foxbat! Who's with me?
  12. Re: ONE power: what do you do with it? Let's see....Mind control. Give yer money and forget about it. Don't fire that nuclear missle. Turn yourself in.....That kind of thing...subtle world manipulation...

    Wanted!

    Re: Wanted! I liked the series save for a few things...SPOILER ALERT!!! for instance, I thought the smartest man on the planet couldn't have been fooled by sh*thead, and secondly and MOST important, the breaking of the fourth wall in the last issue seemed to me malicious and uncalled for by writer millar,who, in effect urinates in his own house by calling the fans that support him, well, terrible things. I found it interesting as well that when that last issue came out it was impossible to create a new account on millarworld so as to make a comment on that sad fact. I have since started my own boycott on aby book written by him. Can't say this will last but I was pretty put off by his 'character's comments. I you read it you'd know what I mean.
  14. Re: Doom Patrol Champions Here's what I can't wait to see...as in the TT cartoon Elasti-Girl, a.k.a. Rita Farr and Mento were members of the 'patrol in the original series and were the adopted parents of Beast Boy! Now, since Byrnes reboot, there is no mention of Mento (perhaps refit to be the teenage girl) and Rita is crushing on Robotman (see? the Brain is the sexiest organ!). So, what happens when Gar Logan meets up with them in this new comic continuity? Also, I found it very funny that, in the cartoon, 'Negative' man's lines were all delivered deadpan, and pessimistic, i.e.; negative. What a hoot. Oh, and on the campaign thing, the idea of the Doom Patrol originally was that because they were 'freaks and misfits' they may as well help out the rest of humanity, even though they were shunned by them. ( I still have no idea why Rita considers herself a freak, though...)
  15. Re: The Cutting Edge SuperBase...what's in it? For some reason Kitchens and toilets are overlooked,(except for you,Oddhat) I mean, if Durak is using the 'facilities' you want something titanium reinforced....maybe with that Dyson Vacuum system...
  16. Re: I'm selling my miniatures collection! I am definitely interested as well...
  17. Re: Are the MC8 worth it? as to numbers of CHA writeups per issue--- 29 has 18 17 has 15 14 has 13 13 has 11 15 has 11 20 has 11 31 has 10 19 has 9 14 has 8 2 has 8 and thats as far as my own data base tells me...
  18. Re: Are the MC8 worth it? AND, I might add, after storing said files, BACKING THEM UP. another tremendous bonus of buying a 10 pack is that you are ( and check me on this..) invited to playtest and testread upcoming materials from HERO games! (It's like my dream job without the money! ) Not to take away from the wealth of material available from the DH's them selves..the MC8 is but ONE group chronicled in DH, the Temporal league, Euroguard, and the Choir are just a few more groups chronicled...I am also proud to say I have all the printed Adventurers Club as well...( Some may get that )
  19. Re: Quiet darkness I just found it an interesting coincidence...suppress/darkness...suppress noise...darkness, noise....
  20. Re: Quiet darkness Well, in my book, I am looking at Suppress..is that right? (The question was about Darkness)
  21. I've already posted to Steve, but: simple question- a man screaming inside a darkness field vs hearing group; is he heard outside the field? Or is sense blocked at the source, i.e., the man inside the field? __________________
  22. ok, simple question- a man screaming inside a darkness field vs hearing group; is he heard outside the field? or is sense blocked at the source, i.e., the man inside the field?
  23. Re: Sky High The Movie I saw the movie as well, and there were some really funny moments, [spoiler WARNING!!!] ...one thing I found a little...off.... was the instant change taught at school, with the limitation "Cannot be seen Changing" (would that be a 1/2 or maybe a -1 limitation?) but we can ALL say "Deus ex Machina"! Plus, The show was stolen by the 2 "Kids in the Hall" alum Dave Foley and Kevin McDonald (Whose prosthetic dome took 4 make up artists 2 do) overall, I give Sky High 3 stars out of a possible 4

    Super City

    Re: Super City ...And if you haven't picked up Top10 collected works, do so, the humor and inside industry jokes are hilarious! (in the first issue, the police are called in on a Domestic between Mr. Fantastic and Invisible Woman)
  25. Have there been any 'official' updates for Vibora bay since Hurricane Ivan? Or did that 'happen' in the Champions Universe?
