Re: Can you look this character over Your suggesting a 104 ft jump?

Re: Can you look this character over Holocosts's says it costs 42. I saw no way of doing that. The mind trick was the hardest to emulate and its the simplest concept.

Re: Can you look this character over I just re-read your post...lol I get it now. You didn't know what I was making.

Re: Can you look this character over Oh and I have never let a character have spd 8 before.

Re: Can you look this character over Yeah the high speed and dex are to allow him to hold actions to keep from getting clobbered. He can also use TK and light saber as attacks. TK to push people away (Not choking like darth vader). And light saber depending on what he is fighting. Obviously he shouldn't go to town on agents. When did I say I was making a Jedi? My memory is fading...was it when I asked about senses?

It's a Jedi for a supers campaign. I'm not sure if he'll live the average attack is AP75. Anyway, if you can give some feedback on how I simulated the powers I would appreciate it. Any Suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: Common Items I let them carry cell phones, but I treat them as a communicator with unluck...(lost signal ect...)

Re: How do you handle healing? Don't the rules say once per day? And if your keeping track of wounds then its once per day per wound? If they want more they have to buy it with an advantage to cure a character more than once per day.

I know in a superhero game you usually have to pay points for everything, but lets say the fight is over and the heros don't want the bad guys to take off. Would you allow them to carry wire ties? They cost a buck at home depot. If not they would have to buy them as entangles. Also, how about a car? House? Cell Phone? This kind of stuff comes up all the time.

It seems healing is a little broken or I'm not wrapping my head around it. As I understand it, It's 10 pts per die. You can do it the simple way and you just roll your points and give the target the amount of stun/body you rolled once per day. So in my campaign I have a 75 AP cap on any power. So a guy wants A player who is a healer. So he can heal 7 1/2 dice of damage to a team member. On average he can heal 26 stun. If a character is hit with the average attack a 15d6 EB (75 AP). That character will on average get hit for 53 stun. So, he might be able to heal the brick. (30 pd/ED). But not the rest of the party. On the other hand, everyone can keep track of every wound and he would be able to heal them to better. But, I don't like the bookkeeping that has to take place. So I was wondering how you handle healing. Or do you just use it as is.

How much woud you say this costs? Would you break it out to several senses? Force Sense: Any living thing. Any power use. Raw energy, forces, gravity, etc. A Large Class Of Things 19-/16- (no Sense Group), Increased Arc Of Perception (360 Degrees), Range, Tracking

I saw a skill or ability that was "Fade into Darkness" in one of my books. Does anyone know where that is...I wanted to look it up and see how they built it.

I'm looking for ideas on how to simulate a telekinetic shield that comes up automatically when the character is attacked. He wrote it as a missle deflect that is basically always on. I vetoed it because I don't allow missle deflect to be used that way. I had him change it to a higher DCV for ranged combat but that still isn't working for me because it makes his dcv too high. There only so many AOE or Explosions to throw at the character. (Villians can't hit him otherwise.) If I just give the villans combat levels then It will hurt the rest of the team alot.

A mentalist has Mind Control and his mental powers are for Human minds. If the mentalist tries to mind control someone who turns out to be an Alien or Android...Will the mentalist know what kind of mind it is?

I want a darkness attack where when the character hits another with it. It creates a darkness field that follows the target. So far I got 1" darkness...usable as an attack. My question is this: With darkness you usually only have to attack a hex. Does usable as an attack take care of this or would the character get a discount because he actually has to hit the opponent for it to work?

Re: Does anyone have any idea why this is legal? Thanks Caris, Disecting it like that helps me clarify what I like and what I don't.

Re: Does anyone have any idea why this is legal? Okay, I explained to him through an email that we are going to use Page 28 of Fred to define power limits. We are using "High Powered". He made a new character. Some of it is like the last. Now he added Extra-Dimensional Movement. So now it's not jumping around the world in 2 t-ports it's anywhere in the dimension. Some other things that bother me as well. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Personally, I hate this phase of the game.

Re: Does anyone have any idea why this is legal? I do that with mage characters. I'll half the multipower be a force field and flight. The other half will be attack spells. I have found though. If you have a huge multpower like this one we are talking about. An EC is cheaper.

Re: Does anyone have any idea why this is legal? yeah these are 450 point builds with 15dcs(15d6 or 75pts) as the cap. I wanted the 450 for more rounded characters. I believe the term is munchkin? I call it mini-maxing
