Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Ballistix: Aunt May vs Alfred

Re: Circle of Protection Something like this? Circle of Protection: Extra-Dimensional Movement (Inside the circle treated as a seperate dimension), x4 Increased Weight, Constant (+1/2), Reduced Endurance (0 END; +1/2), Usable Nearby (+1) (90 Active Points); Extra Time (5 Minutes, Only to Activate, -1), Requires A Roll (Skill roll; Magic; -1/2), IIF Expendable (Difficult to obtain new Focus; Inks, powders, magical writing implements; -1/2) I'm not satisfied with this build. It has UN and Extra Mass to let you bring friends and gear, and Constant to model it sticking around. I still think I've left something out There is also some handwaving going on. You can see both into and out of the circle, so I think that balanced out. The mechanism for entering or leaving the pocket dimension is simply crossing the edge of the circle. Only those near the caster when the circle is set up can do this, however. I considered adding AoE: Radius to reflect the size of the circle, but decided that was unnecessary. You would need to add something like this. One-Way Protection: Naked Advantage: Transdimensional (Single Dimension; Outside the circle; +1/2) for up to 40 Active Points, Reduced Endurance (0 END; +1/2), Usable Nearby (+1) (50 Active Points); Linked (Circle of Protection; -1/2), Unified Power (Circle of Protection; -1/4)

Re: Circle of Protection

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares And, after the final episode, you still have no idea what the heck it was all about.

Re: Circle of Protection You might suggest it as a common Complication for Summoned beings. (The beings in HSB I was talking about were demons, devils, that sort of thing.)

Re: Who is sticking to 4th or 5th Ed HERO I don't think so. I think you could buy a Limited form of CON that would allow this, though.

Re: Circle of Protection HSB models this with a Physical Complication on the creature.

Re: Writeups for Cellphones [5e Champs campaign] I do something similar. Mundane devices are subject to mundane restrictions on their functionality, and are treated as having 3 dice of Unluck. 1 level of Unluck - the device functions, but poorly (dim, flickering light, weak signal, etc) 2 levels = the device is non-functional (dead batteries, no signal, etc) or otherwise unavailable 3 levels = the device has been lost or broken On the other hand, if the character has paid points for the device, it is always available and functional (subject to common sense, of course).

Re: Martian Cave Discovered!

Re: Martian Cave Discovered! People have heard of Tarzan. The number of people who know Burroughs wrote Tarzan is somewhat smaller. The number of people who know Burroughs wrote stuff other than Tarzan is smaller still.

Re: Action Order You could stick the Modifiers used in Lightning Reflexes onto EGO instead of DEX.

Re: Killing Damage in 6e

Re: Circle of Protection Kind of... It's the closest match, but there are significant mechanical differences.

Re: Killing Damage in 6e I think the reason it was changed is that the rules for how much could be doubled became extremely complicated.

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Iron Giant Chef

Re: Bag of Holding You still need some way of getting to the base, either a weird build of XDM or Stretching with Transdimensional.

Re: Bag of Holding There is a writeup for a, "Wizard's Sack" in Fantasy Hero. It will be in the 6e release as well.

Re: Help Me Populate A Creepy Island He could be, but I was thinking ore along the lines that he's very genre-savvy, he really does know the PC's mentor (if only by reputation), and that the adventuring world is somewhat smaller than one might think.
