Re: Federated Super Teams (Galactic Champions)

I was wondering if this was going to be onlyine as well.

Re: Xbox 360 Version of Champions Online Being Held Back By MS

There was talk at one point of porting it to the PS3 if the 360 version sells well. What this means in light of MS being airheads about the game is beyond me though.

Re: Microtransaction (Cryptic Bucks) Info Up

IF it reduces the monthly cost somewhat I can see this as a good idea. I'm really worried about MMOs that cost $15 under this current world economy.

Re: London Knights

I posted the character yesterday, please let me know if you got it.

Re: London Knights

I'm finalizing my background by having a couple people read it over for flow's sake, and should have it in tonight or fairly early tomorrow.

Re: London Knights

No offense taken, I just didn't think there were any Americans already. Hopefully the GM allows two Americans as the background I've worked out wouldn't make much sense if I'm not from the USA.

The "token" comment was intended as a playful jab at what I thought I saw.

Re: London Knights

I'm currently trying to write up the token American for your game. A mutant illusionist by power set.

Re: Demolition Dunphy: Where's the Love?!

Very good question, D-Man has always been a personal favorite of mine as well. Maybe the disrespect is because he stole the costume from Daredevil's early days?

I don't understand why Daredevil got the respect he did. That character's powers are actually quite lame in my opinion and are either not that useful really or all powerful.

Re: The fall of your character

Titan :

He would like to go out in a major brawl between him and one of the heavy hitters of the version of the Marvel universe's future that he's in.

As a player, I'd like him to go out buying the rest of the team time to come up with a plan to take down said heavy.

More than likely, given the nature of the team and Titan's skills and personal supporting cast, he's more likely to live to a ripe old age and die trying to muster the strength to go take on the new up and coming next generation but not having any accept the challenge (he'll be at that time a retired Avenger with all the prestige that involves after all).

Re: Catalyst: A Champions campaign on Hero Central

Just letting you know why I haven't posted again as of yet. I've taken your suggestion and gone back to the bare bolts of the concept. This has developed into new areas for the character, but I've got the character spread around in pieces at the moment that I need to recombine.

I would have had this done by now, but there was some personal havok this last weekend, and the dust in still settling down in areas. I hope to have the character reapplied by this weekend at the latest.

Re: Ultimate Initiative

I think what he's referring to is that in standard continuity, Tony's cloned himself at least once after faking his own death.

Re: Catalyst: A Champions campaign on Hero Central

I took a quick look at the site earlier and didn't notice that name for some reason, I'll do a little mythology research and come up with a different name. It's kind of a inside joke to her to name herself after a similar mythological creature given the scientific nature of her origin.
