Re: Rules Regarding Removable

Ah, I found more examples in the book. Apparently, these example support NONE of the options given, and instead aim for a 'round to the nearest'. There is even an example that shows Removable granting no bonus for the Flaw. There are more examples, but these were the most relevant ones. Options To c...

Re: Rules Regarding Removable

I do concede my secondary concern (rounding up a negative value) is unlikely as to the intent of the rules. I personally work with specifications across the globe with sensitive (and occasionally dire) consequences, so I do tend to look for all possible solutions regardless of their seeming unlikely...

Re: Rules Regarding Removable

I hate to dredge up an old topic, but I have recently been looking into this exact issue. I will be running a PL6 game where there are no innate powers, only magic devices. This means a character may have quite a few low point devices, and this EXACT issue is VERY relevant. I have noted that the wor...

Re: M&M 3E - New Product Ideas

Barbary Coast With the popularity of Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean and 7th Sea, I would love a setting/extended ruleset focused in the 17th-18th century. With ships as mobile headquarters, I could see how epic ship-to-ship battles could be. With powers easily represented as items of power, curs...

Re: Radio Super Sense

Points are such an interesting aspect of M&M. They are arbitrary, yet the Handbook requires us to compare their 'worth'. Is a single Intelligence rank work four ranks of Investigation? Depends on the game you choose to run (or are playing in). I believe this is the crux of the question; What is ...

Re: Jab's Builds! (Lizard! Mysterio! Dr. Octopus! The Stacys! Mary Jane!)

The Death of Gwen Stacy holds a very special place in my heart. You see, when I was but a wee one, my uncle introduced me to comics. One day he handed me a comic and said, "Here, start with this one." No introduction, no information, and no reason. I looked at the cover and wondered who th...

Re: Possible Star Wars RPG Interest?

As most seem to have little positive to say on FFG's Star Wars game, I thought I would add a few good words. I have run and played in FFG's Star Wars system, and find the iconographic dice to be a very divisive aspect of the game. My group kept a visual explanation of the dice's symbols projected on...
