    Re: 6E Hexmap? Our mapping system is too complicated to describe, but last session there was an Elder God figure on the board that nobody remembers putting there.

    Re: Some newbie rules questions Yes, that would be it (although less fancy).

    Re: Some newbie rules questions Either works. I'd probably give the obstacle an OCV and have it make an attack when a character moveed through it. I'd go with 1.5m (which is fairly close to the actual value of 1.414m). My group is actually starting to move away from a grid, and is just setting things out on the table.

    Armor Wars

    IndianaJoe3 replied to Asperion's topic in Champions

    Re: Armor Wars The tank might have been using canister - a large fragmentation round designed to be used against infantry. This makes it easier to hit Iron Man, but doesn't do enough damage to get through his armor (not that the tank crew would know that at first). When they load up an anti-armor round, they miss.

    Re: Healing power beyond re-use limit I agree that it varies by setting. The GM needs to balance incoming damage, defenses, and healing.

    Re: Learning the Heroes System Combat hasn't changed, so yes, it does bog down a bit when there are large numbers of combatants. However, the same would be true of any system.

    Re: "Bloodied" in HERO One option that Hero gives you (that DnD does not) is basing, "Bloodied" off of STUN or END instead of BODY.

    Re: 6e questions - still no move after attack, expensive movement, defense favored, e

    Re: How Much END? I don't think my group has ever played it that way. If a maneuver uses a Power (including STR), then the maneuver costs no END. Maneuvers that do not use a Power (Block, Dodge, etc) cost 1 END.

    Re: Sx help: Name that pistol! I think we've all been assuming that this character is using standard ammo, and ignoring alternative loads. Dark Champions lists frangible ammo as adding 2 DC, and comments that many police departments use it because it is less likely to overpenetrate and hit a bystander.

    Re: Dodging Fireballs If you're trying to model D&D-style Evasion (take half or no damage from AoE effects), you might look at Damage Negation, Requires a Roll.

    Re: Hero Dice ...collector's item, but still in demand.

    Re: Resistant Defenses Yes, this changed in 6e. "Resistant" is now an Advantage.

    Re: Cutting the Drama Out of Character Creation What sort of game are you running where characters die frequently?

    Re: Sx help: Name that pistol! Odd choice. A Colt Double Eagle fits, as does the AMT Javelina (both 10mm). The H&K P-11 also fits the mechanics, but uses an unusual cartridge (7.62x36mm flechette). If I was building a cop, he's probably use a Glock 17L as a primary weapon with a Colt Python for backup.

    Re: Artificial lifeforms Maybe beef.

    Re: 6th edition Min Str This could be represented by building the axe as a Multipower, or allowing the "flat of the blade" maneuver.

    Re: Look at this and build it (or just suggest stuff) I would think that KB Resistance would be more appropriate. (Many creatures in the HSB have this, and I think the official Size Templates do as well.)

    Re: What books should I buy??? It should be noted that the Hero System Bestiary will be updated for 6e in about a month.

    Re: Hypothetically and unofficially, what would you like to see in a Mecha Hero book? Rule 34 strikes again...

    Re: Car-hacking I think that the, "Simulated Intelligence" rules from the APG would work well here.
