Is there a way to do this that is in the rules? If not, would you consider it an advantage, a limitation, or neither?

There has been no word from him...

There is going to be a new V movie and/or series being made here shortly I heard on the grapevine... original cast too from what I recall... got to love blasts from the past!

Yeah, PBP! I second that... yeah yeah!

How about Ariyana Arista Sirroco Feng? :D Just kidding... lol

Damn... my name did not win... *sulk* Like the write up though!

First name... Arista?

There is also quite a bit of discourse in the FH5 about the very topic of weapon sameness and how to minimize it through various means... In that regard, I think FH5 is much better than FH4.

I think that had nothing to do with being a temporal power... It was most likely a mental paralysis type effect... I could be wrong though, I forget if the environment was frozen or not, it has been a while. A powerful area effect mind control could do it.

Count me in! OOooooOOooOo!!! This was my 100th post!

Re: Immortality One could become immensely powerful I would assume... first a ruler would become an institution, the only ruler anyone alive would have known... then he would become a legend... then if he were to be there long enough, he would become tantamount to a diety in the eyes of his people and perhaps the world as well.

You really need the UMA and Ninja Hero if you are running a campaign set in the Xena/Hercules setting!

Camper sense... ROFL!

A FH Broken Arrow... hmmmm... A lost mystical warhead created by a powerful mage... has definate story possibilities...

A drain body with a lengthened return time?

Except in Fantasy Hero 5th! There, they are both intelligent (+1 INT) and courageous (+1 PRE)... Although I did not get to buy my copy today, it has arrived in Las Vegas and I browsed through James Gillen's copy. That is not a game book, that is a PHONE BOOK! I am so totally excited, next week one of those huge babies will be mine... *chuckling evily as I wander off to write my own version of the criminal package deal*

I would tend to assign a size based upon the vehicle's dimensions and then adjust the weight with density increase. A friend here does make the point that assigning a smaller size would affect the negative DCV modifier imposed, but I think that could be taken care of by a negative DCV level.

Well... that was moronic... and if the bluffing player insisted on ending the game like that after so much effort and time, I would not be able to stay friends with him... that type of person would just not be someone that I could understand.

I know... I was meaning to illustrate how special effects can totally alter how a power is percieved. An energy blast, which is usually considered an unliving thing, can actually be living if the right special effect is applied, and a summoned creature, usually thought to be living, can be unliving if the special effect defines it to be so.

Another thought... think of it this way. A normal energy blast is most often thought of as just that... energy. But in fact, special effects can make that to be not the case... while it can be flame or lasers or sonics... it can also be a summoned critter that darts over to the target, bites him and then runs away, it's task completed.

Re: The NEGA-BEAM! The thing you have to keep in mind is that the Nega-Beam is NOT a living being... the use of summon is just the way that the SPECIAL EFFECT in question could be created... that of a energy blast capable of targetting and following a character and if need be, making adjustments as the circumstances change. While it is using a power that most often is used to summon living creatures, the Nega-Beam is NOT living.

I fully agree, that is why I wish I could game in some of the groups that I read about on here!

GMs around these parts have been known to be quite lax in knowing exactly what abilities their PCs have... part of what sometimes drives me nuts with my gaming group.

Captain Commando... 4th edition character that had a weapon that did 4d6RKA Autofire 5 Explosion... he nearly killed all of the PCs and I think he was played once.

Welcome back, sorry about the funeral part... I was able to get a Strike Force on Ebay, so I am covered
