Re: 6E Superhero Adventure

BlackWyrm Games is proud to present Michael Satran's War of Worldcraft adventure for the HERO System 6th Edition. Robots attack a sales event for the world's hottest online superhero roleplaying game. Now players are falling unconscious at their computers. Can your superheroes find a supervillain inside a computer game, fighting their way past numerous virtual threats, so that they can free the minds of thousands of trapped players? War of Worldcraft is an introductory adventure for 4 to 8 superheroes at 400 to 500 points. It requires the HERO System 6th Edition rulebook. The book is available for preorder for $9.95, and will be in print at GenCon (come visit BlackWyrm Games at booth #408). The pdf will be available right after GenCon.

Re: Jokes Cooking Instructions The inscription on the metal bands used by the U.S. Department of the Interior to tag migratory birds has been changed. The bands used to bear the address of the Washington Biological Survey, abbreviated as "Wash. Biol. Surv." -- until the agency received the following letter from an unhappy camper: "Dear Sirs: While camping last week, I shot one of your birds. I think it was a crow. I followed the cooking instructions on the leg tag and want to tell you it tasted horrible." The bands are now marked "Fish & Wildlife Service."

Re: New Product: Albrim's Curse [novella] The funny part of the comment is the dangling participle that makes it sounds like Gran was crippled and Cursed instead of Albrim. Some idiot must have written that blurb... Guilty.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine Perfect! I'm designing a HIghtower now for my 'sploitation supervillain group (along with teammates like SupaFly, Brickhouse, Ghetto Blaster, Colt 45, etc). Hightower is sort of a "shoe-based Mad Hatter" with some Stilt-Man effects thrown in.

Re: Super Friends Campaign Check with RhinoBunny. He runs a Superfriends game at DunDraCon each year. You must make a soliloquy each Phase or else the writers forget you're in the room, and you lose your action.
