I am interested in playing or gming a champions game.  

Re: Need a name for batlike hero

What about Vesper. I think in England they call them or used to flittermouse. The flying fox is one of the biggest bats in the world.

Re: Chemical enhancements with an addiction probability

This is looking much better. The idea of the roll with an increase in difficulty adds something more. Plus I like the idea of the loss of AP's as a side effect of the addiction. I will pass this idea along to the player and go from there.

Re: Chemical enhancements with an addiction probability

Thanks for the suggestions...I like the transform approach as it seems to be realistic. I will look into creating the power with that idea...Any other ideas please keep them coming.

Okay starting up a new campaign and I have a player who wants his toon to be a chemist. One of his powers is a super pill that gives increases to stats. Easy, but he also wants to build into it a chance to become addicted as well if the drug is overused. How would you go about building this and what sort of limitation would that be.

Info use drug once per day minimal addiction rate, each additional dose in a day severely increases your chance to be addicted.

ps didn't there used to be a limitation for this in 4E?

Thanks for the help in advance

Re: Multiple Man attack

HTH with AE Line with the given amount to simulate the movement. Or you could build a HTH with trigger...

Okay what special "powers" or abilities might a paladin's horse have? I was thinking more INT and a little faster or possibly stronger, but what else/

Ideas:

Re: Usable maps of Pangea

I always thought about this idea too but frankly I like Gondwana and Laurasia as a better candidate. More coast line I guess and more fantastical I guess.

Re: Spiderman's Web

I am fairly unsure about the rules but wouldn't Breakfall usable by others with a high roll work as well. Or am I off base on this one. Could be missing something.

Re: Single Most Powerful Super Hero EVER!!!

Okay I am a marvel nut and have a few that I think should be given some consideration:

Mr. Fantastic forget the stretching and just think of that brain. I believe that in the end with enough preparation he is a seriously deadly foe. And without that preparation he has some serious powers with stretching.

Also a wacky addition Black Bolt. I know he is a bit one sided (not completely) but he has got one hell of a side.

Re: 4th edition Champions pics

Does anyone have the original write ups for these characters?

Re: VIPER help needed.

I also thought that it said that the head VIPER guy knows approximately where the lantern is. VIPER source book has more about it.

Re: VIPER help needed.

I have always like massasauga for an exotic sounding snake. And I agree with LA about the Serpent Lantern. That item is powerful enough to get all the snakes moving out of their dens.

Re: Why We Really Shouldn't Laugh at Shadow Destroyers Shark Headed Minions

That is a great Astro City story. Of course I always have enjoyed most of the stories from that line. And shark headed men would always seem to be a bit scary to me. All those rows of big sharp teeth.

Re: The Dragon Mandarin

I am pretty sure that this book is for 5th edition. It is fairly similar to the section from Watchers of the Dragon but with slight modifications.

Okay I am looking for a list of Hzeel tech based superheroes and villains. If I can remember Warlord and his cronies are definably in this group but who are the others?

Also where are there write ups about the Hzeel? (culture, tech base, and what not)

Thanks

Re: Basic Write Up For Ran-Tari From Turakian Age

Ahhh 6E don't have that one yet still have the 5E. thanks

Re: Basic Write Up For Ran-Tari From Turakian Age

What page? I cannot seem to find it.

Is there any basic write up or racial packages for the Ran-Tari. I am looking to do a campaign off of the plot seeds from TA.

Re: Turkanian Age and Champions

Thanks LL I have been trying figure out what fantasy world I should buy in order to do some Fantasy Hero. I have seen TA, The Last Dominion, Echoes of Heaven, and a few others. So thanks for the recommendations on this one and how it fits in. I guess my first question was mainly scholarly. If anyone has any opionions on any of the other fantasy settings please let me know.

Okay I do not own Turkanian Age (think I will purchase it soon), but I have heard that it fits into the Champions verse in some kind of way ala Takofanes. If it does how exactly does it fit in? Alternate dimension, past, different planet past?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Quick reference sheets?

Great Job mudpy8, and have some more rep

Re: Game Time & Experience pts.

I usually only give 2 to 3 pts per game session which can last 3 to 6 hours. Of course I also give extras as well such as contacts or favors if a player did an excellent job roleplaying with an NPC or even power adjustments if a player has used a power in an interesting new way. At the end of a story arc I give 1 pt per game session that was involved. However I also take away points for exceptionally bad acts or role playing by players.

Re: Riddles

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I have decided to give them the riddle at the end of session and let them work on it over the intervening period. Let you all know how it goes.

Re: CHAMPIONS BEYOND -- What Do *You* Want To See?

Well I am looking forward to example vehicles and technology examples from each race. Also some plot seeds especially may one or two on that stereotypical alien invasion plot line. Also maybe a little insight on how the Hzeels feel about the heroes and villains that have used their technology.
