Re: Redirecting Others' Movement Dispel Movement, Does 2x Kockback? The Knockback would also cover the damaging part of the power. You could limit the distance of Knockback to be no greater than the original movement rate, if desired.

Re: Thats one nimble little bull I ran my heroes through a 6E demo yesterday, and one of them did play Taurus. From his background, Taurus is a Tack & Field star, and he even has KS: Track & Field on his sheet. It even came up during play. They were being attacked by small spherical robots, so Taurus grabbed one, and succeeding at a KS: Track & Field, he remembered his shotput experience, and was able to throw one at another without an Unfamiliar Weapon penalty. So in Taurus's case, I can see a justification for a higher than normal DEX.

Re: Duel battons Depending on his skill with the sticks, his Multipower might also benefit from: * Telekinesis (10 STR), Fine Manipulation; Instant, Only for Pushing/Hitting (useful for tripping, diarming, throwing switches, and the like) * Deflection * Flash (hit them between the eyes; or box their ears) * Indirect Blast (useful for that amazing ricochet bounce) * Double Knockback Blast (great for hitting that moving target in the back of the knee, or tossing the stick just under a foot, etc) * In fact, just a Blast, Variable Advantage would be pretty useful

Re: Post-Apocolyptic Disney World Now the pictures would need to include some post-apocalyptic Marvel superheroes, too.

Re: Cover the Eyes/Ears Maneuver Actually, I'd like to see a "covering my own eyes/ears" maneuver to prevent Flash attacks or NNDs based on Flash Defense.

Re: "Neat" Pictures Squigers are rarely photographed in their natural guttural habitat.

Re: So why was the old man killed? The ledger wasn't noticed by the x-ray scan or found by the thief because it's been glued page by page behind the wallpaper.

Re: New "Impossible" Planet May Be on a Death Spiral It's the legendary planet of Magrathea!

Re: 6E Cool Stuff Shout-Outs Especially when there's already an entire book devoted to the subject.

Re: It's the Little Things.... I'd go for Life Support versus sleeping with a shortened time span for the bad coffee...

Re: Jokes Funnier if the guy drinking at the table is the one who gave up drinking.

Re: March of the Munchkin It's cooler to put Autofire on your Haymaker, so you can add those 4d6 five times.

Just saw my first Facebook ad for the game.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine The filename attached is thrrobbinggnome, which brings to mind a much different visual...

Re: Sixth Edition Showcase #8: APG Goodies I'm very happy with the way Possession turned out. Although the cost structure (9 tenths of the law) is a little odd. And don't forget about the special rules for MegaScale Chucking.

Re: Hero System 3rd Party Products Worldcraft will debut at GenCon, and we'll be selling it from our site as soon as we get back. We're taking preorders now, which we'll ship next week.

Re: Lucha Libre Hero Are you sure he's not written up in The Book Of The Machine?

Re: Multipower-Like Movement Powers I generally prefer using Slavishly Devoted Follower, Usable As Attack.

Re: Easily Forgettable I had a player in my group do this with Cumulative Transform AOE. Then he bought some Personal Immunity UBO OAFs to give to his teammates (Forget-Me-Nots). But I'd probably also allow Invisiblity to Sight, Hearing, and Touch; Gradual Effect.
