Re: The Destroyers

Instead of a crossbow, I usually give Arrowhead Armor-piecing on his 60 STR. In a campaign I used to run, he one-shotted the team brick. I still remember fondly the look of fear in their faces.

Re: Hulk Smash: What is your favorite version?

Any version except the Ultimate Hulk.

Re: The Destroyers

I asked this of Steve Long when CKC came out. According to him Deathstroke/Destroyers did not fit the tone of the new 5th edition Champions Universe.

Re: Another Take on the Animated Justice League

I thought about working on the animated version of the Green Arrow, what arrows has he used in JLU so far?

I can remember:

Net Arrow

Boxing Arrow

Simple Arrow

TNT arrow

Anything else I'm missing?

Re: Common Grounds & Sanctuary for the New CU

I never like Sanctuary in 4th edition. Would a Hero not arrest a villian (especially a murderer) just because he is on "neutral ground".

I much rather see a complete re-make of Stronghold.

Re: Another Take on the Animated Justice League

Superman: Maybe an enrage will dealing with Darkseid.

Flash: I would give the following disadvantages

Psych Lim: Overconfident (This has been seen in many epidsodes).

Psych Lim: Speaks his mind (On Paradise Island telling the Queen about WW exile, and confronting Goodfrey)

J'onn J'onz: On the epiodsode War World, J'onn lost most of his power do to an agent in the air.

Re: Fire Extinguisher Go Boom

It would hve to be an older fire extinguisher. Most fire extinguishers made in the last decade will not explode.

Also it would have to be heat or presssure to make the fire extinguisher. It is a Hollywood myth that one can explode by shooting it.

Re: What's Busiek done lately?

Well he has been doing some Astro City's and he is supposed to take over on JLA. I think that we should probably move all these comic book posts to NGD though.

Busiek on JLA, thank you god!!! When will this happen?

You what burns my ass,

Re: THE TURAKIAN AGE Reviewed On RPG.Net

A very good review, which I agree with for the most part.

Style: In the Style part of the review, makes some very valid points on art. The art in TA is the first Hero product where the quality of the art was so poor in some areas (Races mostly ) that it reduced my opinion of the book.

I can not complain about the lack of an index as much as the reviewer did, since it is a free download. In retrospect, I think I would have prefer to pay $31.99 for the book, and had a complete index within the book.

The reviewer main flaw in the Style section is not mentioning the high quality maps in the book. Keith Curtis did a great job on the maps, and it is one of the high points of the book for me.

Substance: Great chapter by chapter review. Can not anything I disagree with this part.

Re: Origins Award Nomination

I think Hero Designer not getting a nomination is a crime. Dan made Hero Designer better than most of the big name software I use.

For shame Origins, for shame.

Re: City of Heroes Pinnacle Server Board

This is a shameless plug for a message board made for the Pinnacle Server.

If this is not the place for this thread I will understand if it is moved/removed.

 

Thanks,

Alas, I play on Champion Pinnacle always seem to have a heavy load.

Hey Mike, you wouldn't happen to have an example to look at would you.

Here is the best I got

Has the hero from original Champions cover (as seeen in my avatar) ever be named? I know the villian is now Holocaust, but I was curious about the hero.

For those of you who have never seen the cover, he is a hero in blue and gray with a upside-down star on his chest. He apparently has energy fists, large ammount of ED, and knockback resistance.

Mork from Ork had weird alien finger pointing powers

Color Dragons, is that from that other fantasy RPG?
