Re: Help me fill my town. I'm with L. Marcus. Trent could have a couple of younger siblings, and Charles and Marge could have a brood of their own. That would fill things out nicely. (It would even fulfill a trope/cliche if the person the demon is disguised as is a child.)

Re: Atari unloading Cryptic Studios Well, they wouldn't be able to make Super Hero; that phrase is jointly Trademarked by Marvel and DC. But they could probably come up with some other appropriate title. There is a perpetual license agreement in place; Steve said as much when the sale to Cryptic was announced. I do hope there's a reversion clause, though the way I read things it's not really an issue in the current situation.

Re: The answer to the most important question in Space Sci-Fi I don't have the 6th Edition Champions book yet, for lack of funds. (Is that the edition you mean?)

Re: The answer to the most important question in Space Sci-Fi When I was writing an early manuscript for The Ultimate Vehicle, I put in a section on explosive decompression. I asked a few people to review the manuscript, and one of them looked at the title, thought I was talking about this, and decried it with "it's a myth, people don't explode in vacuum," apparently without actually reading the section. What I'd written was about vehicular explosive decompression, where a breach in the exterior bulkhead causes air to rush out. I'd actually never heard that term applied to what happens to people in space (and I already knew that exploding people is an inaccuracy). Thank you for finding this, and hopefully there will be some way to include this information in Star Hero (if it's not already there).

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine Ah! And that explains the Dr. Doom-like design. A friend of mine once taught school at Jordan Valley. I've barely thought about that county since then, except when discussing time zones.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine I'm not making the mental connection here.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine Let's see... is it named for a man, by his first name?

Re: The Certified Resistance Review I can see here that I won't be playing this, at least until I can get a new computer -- the difficulty will be simply too great with the laggy, awkward netbook I've been using. Once that happens I'll probably be jumping into it with both feet, especially if I can find teammates.

Re: ADVANCED PLAYER'S GUIDE II -- What Do *You* Want To See? I was re-sorting my Hero books the other and came across Tuala Morn. This made me think: Since it's highly unlikely we'll ever get a 6th Edition version of that book (and even if we do), it would probably be good to have the Geas Disadvantage updated into a 6E Complication. I think it has potential beyond just that setting, and even beyond fantasy -- some mystical superheroes or supervillains could have a Geas, it probably has a place in some horror settings, and it could even come up in certain science-fiction/science-fantasy settings (I could see it just about anywhere in the spectrum from Star Wars to Farscape).

Re: Gorilla Grond - from typo's are mighty heroes made (6E) Martial Mamhunter (though this one may have too much R-rated potential) Booster Golf (sports-related) Among the ones already associated with Suicide Squid include Siderman (who goes around repairing damage after superhero fights with aluminum siding) and Swap Thing (the avatar of bargain basement hunting).

Re: Idea to art by Storn. Year 8 That's kind of the idea. He was just a regular civilian caught up in the Battle of Detroit, and lost his left leg, left arm, left eye, and parts of his frontal lobe, most notably those controlling compassion, sleep, and fashion sense. However, when dealing with him it's important to remember to first avert the volcano in downtown Millennium City, then make fun of his outfit.

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Magnum Opus

Re: Gorilla Grond - from typo's are mighty heroes made (6E) Shouldn't he have some connection in his background to Suicide Squid?

Re: Maps for Secret Military Bases

Re: A real laser pistol? Power from vacuum? Photons affecting more than one electro I'm strongly considering tracking down the papers cited in the post. I'm skeptical for a different reason. Turns of phrase such as "t is a scientific fact, proven forever," "will revolutionize warfare permanently," and "rigorously proven for all time" do not strike me as something that would come from a retired Army Lieutenant Colonel with an MS in Nuclear Engineering. They have a much younger "feel" to them than I'd expect from someone who has lived long enough to get those credentials. I'd also expect such a person to know that the US administrative department is called Homeland Security, not Internal Security.

Re: CHAMPIONS BEYOND Sneak Peek: The Cover! This is about what I'd expect. And I hope the book does sell enough to spark a special villain book -- once Cryptic has their Moon zone ready (alas, not a priority; from what I gather, probably late next year at best), that will probably spark extra interest. And hopefully such a book could include Blue Screamer.
