Re: Ninja Hero

But, but... NINJA HERO *did* have good graphics, didn't it?

Re: Worst Hero Names (of your campaigns)

One character made a powered armor character named Armory... we made fun of it, of course... calling him Armor-Y, the 25th in a line of prototype armors. Not that the name was bad, but as a bunch of jerk players, we had to find some way to make fun of it anyhow.

Re: Can you recolor the Kirby dot Heroic Power flight?

I am gold... how do you change power colors? I have not seen an option for that, is it during character creation, or do you have to go somewhere in-game?

Re: HERO System Advanced Players Guide II now in store.

I'll lay an egg if they actually answer this question...

Re: HERO System Advanced Players Guide II now in store.

Thank you!

Re: HERO System Advanced Players Guide II now in store.

So, would anyone be so kind as to post like, the table of contents from this new book so that I have an idea if I want to buy it or not?

Re: Cooperative Timeline

That is not the best starting point (in addition to being a bad idea anyhow, killing WWII would remove a really good setting for heroes). You need to start with the first hero... It would seem to me that Sentinel is not the first. I say that because... well in a world without the precedent of Superhero comics, would someone who suddenly have powers, get out of bed one day, give himself a goofy name, and fly off to dismantel the 3rd Reich? There are so many complications to that, I don't even know where to begin.

Decided to give CO a try after getting an upgrade to my video card... being FtP now also helped!

Fun game! Any Hero board based groups in existance? I'd like to find some people to play with.

Re: Hey Kids -- Comics!

Well done, Mr. Bennie... must have taken a while to put those together!

Hello folks! I need some assistance. I'd like to model Dark Sun defiling magic in 5th Edition Fantasy Hero, any ideas?

I am considering a aid with a huge side effect, but am not sure how to work it... should I charge the characters for it? Give it free? Base it on an Ego roll? On a magic skill roll?

Hellllllp!

Re: Supernaturals

In my opinion, Hero 6 doesn't have anything to offer that requires anyone to switch to it... if you are happy with 5th, stay there for the time being. Upgrade when it is comfortable for you.

Re: City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

I'll join you guys tomorrow night on Champion... I have a mid teens hero called The Mighty Blaze, he is a fire/fire blaster. Hope to see ya!

Re: City of Heroes - Online Hero Game

Who's playing these days? I just re-upped after a few years and I am playing a Peacebringer on Freedom... want to play?

Re: Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Urban Fantasy Campaign Fodder?

Teen Champions is where I would put it.

Only if you did away with the comedy angle that seems to be the bread and butter of Teen Champions...

Hello folks, I am currently far away from the majority of my books, and I need a write up for a wolf... would someone obligue? A dire wolf would also be much appreciated. I am making a character for a Hero Central game and might want my character to have a pet.

Re: The Known Universe (animation)

Yes' date=' it is time to insert the obligatory quote from the HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy about how incredibly large space is.[/quote']

 

Wasn't meant as a Hitchhicker's Guide quote... that truly put things into proportion for me.

Re: The Known Universe (animation)

Amazing... in the sheer scale of existance, we are almost non-existant.

Re: HERO System Sidekick

Thanks Steve!

Re: HERO System Sidekick

I was just checking out Sidekick in the store and found that the printed version was Sidekick Revised and the PDF seems to be the old Sidekick. Is there going to be a PDF version of Sidekick Revised offered anytime soon?

Re: Gestalt Sampler

I'm excited! Other than a new edition of Strike Force, this is the setting book I have wanted to see most for about the last decade at least. Thank you so much for finally writing this, Scott!

Re: New York Nights - Dark Champions PBeM Looking For Players

Woot!

Due to the fact that at my game last night, my hero was sucked through a magical implosion and spewed into another dimension like so much spaghetti, I need to put together a new character for next weeks game. The characters are all of a mystical bent, so that is what I need to work with. Due to all of these mystical characters, we are somewhat lacking in technical skills... so I decided I wanted to try and plug that hole.

How shall I go about bridging the gap between magic and technology in a single character? One idea I had was perhaps to make a modern day protege of Vulcan... at first I looked to see if there was a Norse version of Vulcan/Hephaestus, but it seems as if the Norse had most of their goodies created for them by the dwarves of Nidavellir... thought it would be amusing if my character had graduated from MIT (Midgard Institute of Technomancy).

The campaign is a high level heroic campaign (150+100), NCM is mandatory and worth zero points, although characteristics bought as powers circumvent that. We each get 50 real points worth of equipment and can increase that pool by paying 1 point for 5 more pool points. The heroes work for a government agency called Project Olympus who are called upon to investigate and deal with magical threats. The GM says that in his mind, the world is rather "Buffy-like".

If you have any ideas to share with me, based off of my ideas above, or something completely different that I have not thought of... please reply, I need some help!

Hyphenated words count as a single word, but using too many hyphenated words to pad your story would not be in the spirit of the exercise...

Re: 50 Word Superhero Stories!

Excellent one, made me laugh! Who else wants to write one?
