  6. Re: Dark Seekers (generic)

     

    Well I have had a chance to look at these extremely deadly foes and

    I like them. They should be extremely deadly. It is my belief that if

    these are the major nasty in any PAH campaign, then make the PC's

    a 100 pt character with up to 75 pts disadvantages...makes the PC's

    a tad bit nasty!

  7. Re: Dark Seekers (generic)

     

    I think they are designed perfectly and it reflecks how deadly they really are and

    should be. I will need to re look at this and see if I can add anything more to what

    you designed her. I must say I think you have done a awesome job Susano!

  8. Re: Language?

     

    Well what I am doing is the players are based out of a country called Jhorgule, and it

    has it's own language that has it's roots in Ancient Toshika(located due west), Dwarven

    (it sits on the location of a ancient Dwarven Kingdome of Nargowin), Mirrior (located

    just North/West of the region) and Ranth (North of the region) too. It shares elements

    with all of those languages, and it is a Human country that has a 1200 yr history.

  9. Re: Space 1999 aka Space 2099

     

    I have thought about that as well, and yes there are some rather large asteroids in

    the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupitor(almost the size of small moons). We

    could say that the said asteroid were Alpha Base was locted was on a huge deposits

    of multiple resources. I was thinking that the "colony" called Alpha Base could be

    like 25,000 pop and have many different facilities and etc.

     

    Now as to how the asteroid leave earth's system, say that they were testing a

    new drive system...maybe a kinda FOLD Jump drive system. Maybe the first attempt

    at using the drive, it by accident took the whole asteroid into Fold Space and

    transported them to some unknown part of the galaxy and can't find their way home.

    Since there is a large Scientific research station also located on base, they are able

    to figure out how to make small controlled "Folds" to different systems and etc. They

    just need to figure out where Earth's system is to where they are in space.

  10. Re: Glassy Mars

     

    I tell ya...my thoughts on NASA and the space program are slightly different

    that my older sons views. I would advised my sons to do well in school, get

    involved in all sorts of activities and get into either the Naval or Air Force

    Academy. Then study to become some engineer and become a pilot. Then

    try for the Astronaught program. Something tells me that might be the way

    for my younger son, but my older son ( the 13 yr old that plays Hero's) is

    more of a true scientist egg. His approach will be the scholar one I can

    see now. I will support what ever they want to do, but am glad that they

    at least share my interest in space and what is "Out There". Space is

    mankind's future and I believe we will be out there one day!

  11. Re: Language?

     

    You know in the issue of languages with my own campaign, I have multiple human

    languages and some are based closely off others.

     

    Example:

     

    Ancient Toshika Empire - vast human empire of great age

    Toshika Common - modern spoken and written language

    Murrian - ancient language still used buy the Witch King and his people

    Ranthion - ancient language of a Mage country

    Jhorgule - language based on cross of Toshika, Murrian, Dwarven

    Dwarven - dwarven language

    Fae - all farie folk speak the same language

    Algerrec - language of the great desert empire

    Trade Common - common trade language(humans/dwarves)

    Areon - humans of the far south

    Dark Tongue - spoken by Orcs, Goblins, Hob Goblins, Kobalds, Knolls and such

    Trollic - Troll language, very ancient but simular to Ancient Toshikian

     

    Just to name a few,

  12. Re: Glassy Mars

     

    I too can only hope that I am able to influence my own children whom are 8 and 13,

    and interested in math/science and space, to maybe guide them toward careers in

    the direction of the space program. It would be a dream if they could be apart of the

    space program and etc, but I will be happy with what ever they do regardless.

     

    Yes I hope too, that the flights to Mars are a total success!

  13. Hello everyone,

     

    Ok based of the other two Space 1999 threads I feal that this could be

    a awesome PAH and Star Hero/Traveller Hero campaign mixed genre.

     

    Now as I stated I would love to see a Space 1999 Hero but I feel it should

    be renamed to Space 2099 and set in the era. The projected tech of the

    show would most likely come about by 2099 and it could fit most nicely

    being that we are just about to start 2008.

     

    So I would also set the show not on Earth's Moon (Luna) but instead on

    one of the Asteriods in the great belt between Mars and Jupitor. One

    could set up moon base Alpha and have a much larger self sufficiency

    colony that was a mining and raw materials processing location with

    some minor manufacturing going on as well. Also the low gravity could be

    a ship yard of sorts for building and repair of space craft for use in the

    outer solar system. They could have Eagles, Mark IX Hawks, Supper

    Swifts, and Long Range Probes, as well as staging areas for exploration

    launch missions. I would have some accident happen that maybe caused

    this smaller asteroid to leave it's orbit and maybe fall through a temporary

    wormhole to an unknown location and thus be "Lost In Space".

  14. Re: Possible explanation for PAH scenario

     

    With anything there are always possibilities and although this looks like it could be a

    great resource for Japan, I bet something bad happens that causes great issues for them

    at least. Being that they are in a Great Earth Quake region, the chances of a issue

    happening to cause a accident are greatly increased.

  15. Re: What about a Space 1999 Hero

     

    Yes UFO came before Space 1999, AND it was the same special effects

    (model making company) that did both shows. Now UFO was a early 70's

    show I do believe, and Space 1999 was late 70's..might have been 1977.

     

    If they redid the show they would need to rename is Space 2099, and if

    it was set in that time it's tech would fit with current projected tech.

     

    Penn

     

    PS: I would love to see the show done in Hero System.

     

     

    Relying on old memories. Same production company' date=' but I don't think they're the same universe. UFO could be the precursor to 1999?[/quote']
  16. Re: Glassy Mars

     

    Well all I can hope fore in my lifetime, is that I live long enough (I'm currently 43) to

    see mankind return to the moon and mankind walk on Mars. If that all happens in lets

    say the next 30 yrs, I will be 73 by then. They say your lifespan is a average of your

    mother's and father's. Mom was 88 and dad was 76 when they both passed away, so

    I can only hope I make it to at least 76 yrs old!
