I don't have an active Champions campaign. The last game I played in was around 16DC and the last one I ran was 6-8DC.

I did something like this for the experimental 175-pt version of Carver (telekinetic surfer dude). He could fly fast, fly at average speeds and have a good defense, or hover, have a good defense and throw stuff around. Despite all his variable slots, he only really had 3-4 options.

There's not much market for a 1d6-1 RKA, 10 charges, 11- Activation w/ Burnout.

I don't see anything wrong with a narrative approach, but Hero isn't designed for it. I'd probably use Fate if I was playing a narrative game, instead of trying to adapt Hero.

I think this is a bad idea because it hides the complexity of Limitations. "Laser Pistol (-2)" sounds simpler than, "OAF (-1), 6 Charges (-3/4), Beam (-1/4)," but it doesn't tell you what the restrictions actually are. Players might also want similar powers with different Limitations, and then the GM has to keep track of, "Tom's Laser Pistol (-1)," "Dick's Laser Pistol (-2)," and "Harry's Laser Pistol (which is different from Tom's) (-1)."

There's nothing in the rules that prevents you from buying a few CSLs/PSLs and calling it a martial art. It's even suggested as an option in the martial arts sourcebooks. It can even be cheaper, since you aren't bound by the 10-point minimum cost of a martial art.

APG1 has a bunch of ideas for adapting Enraged/Berserk to other conditions.

Hey, I like the Smithsonian. Pity about its neighbors, though.

It must be your settings, because I can see and follow them.

Thank you for the links. I'd lost my copy of the elements in a hard drive crash.

Considering that I'd probably get caught in the blast wave, I'm going to make sure your afterlife involves you mating with an Ewok and raising a family of them.

Most of it could be covered with Acrobatics. Adding, "Usable As Leaping" to Running should handle the rest.

To me, this looks like a Multiple Disarm with TK (or other suitable power).

Definitely a kids' album cover.

"Remember this: there is no more important safety rule than to wear these - safety glasses."

The flip side of this is when authors/gamers have an alien race do something weird or nonsensical simply because they're aliens. There should be a logic behind it, if only from the aliens' perspective.

You can't be old. You're younger than I am, and I'm only middle-aged.

I think that 6th has my favorite mechanics, but I have a lot of nostalgic love for the BBB and general support that 4e had.

Pronounced, "cor-hoo-ah-hoo-ah," right?

I think the term you are looking for is, "wearing a wire." Sure, no problem. Use a Bugging roll to make sure you get good sound/video and a Concealment roll to keep it hidden.

My boss is putting on a safety vest. He's having a bit of trouble. Boss: How does this look? Me: It's slimming.

"I have literally had this dream at least a dozen times."

I have a campaign idea that I've been noodling with that was based on a flag idea. The flag was the UN flag, only in black instead of blue, with crossbones underneath. The name for the setting was Pirate Earth.

At the risk of going off on a tangent here, I've used Change Environment as a model for an appropriate cost for a skill/perception roll penalty Side Effect.
