Krakoa and the Soviet Union

So, over in the X-Men franchise, the Krakoa era is coming to an end. This was all the mutants everywhere setting old conflicts aside and living on a sapient island/nation-state together, being opposed by Orchis, the latest club for people who hate mutants and like killer robots. For a while they wer...

Re: The Machine-Gene War (3E PL9 OOC- RECRUITING)

Putting Maki's two extra points into Intellect would violate her skill caps, so I would like to put them into her template array, like so: Basic Physical Templates: 34 point array, 2 Alternate Effects * 36 points (36 point array, 38 points total) Colossus: Growth 10, Impervious Toughness 9, Immunity...

Re: The Machine-Gene War (3E PL9 OOC- RECRUITING)

After thinking about it for a while, I think I'll just resubmit Doctor Win as-is. She was fun to play, and even though the giant form doesn't have a ton of uses, it's only one point for the alternate effect. She might have had some Shed Scales sympathies, being dissatisfied with the way the world wo...

Re: The Machine-Gene War (3E PL9 OOC- RECRUITING)

I'm still thinking about another take on Dr. Wintour, but I'm a bit stumped on the powers. The Hank Pym/Janet Van Dyne setup is a little redundant between Techna and Dragonborn. Maybe something involving bioelectricity and magnetism would work well.

Oh, that's a surprise. I assumed the new game would involve a lot of doing favors for them and getting them into/out of trouble.

Is that something the Newtons can do with their new lab? Produce new geenies, I mean.

"Scavengers of alien technology" sounds like a fun game premise all by itself. The Vulture was my favorite part of Homecoming. :)

Re: Mutants & Masterminds & Robots??

If you're talking about unbalancing the game in a mechanical sense, I think it would depend on if you gave them all the full 30 point Fortitude immunity or not. There are some fortitude targeting effects that logically wouldn't work on a machine, but there are plenty of others that would work just f...

Re: The Machine-Gene War (3E PL9 OOC- RECRUITING)

That should give you some idea of how dangerous the Demented One is. Well, was. Probably. Also, will we be seeing Doctor Win again? Hm. Probably not without some retooling, at the very least. Her background could stand to be more integrated with the world setting, and it seems like the machines are...

Re: Vanguard Academy OOC Thread

I don't think any details of the patrol mission have been given. There probably aren't any pre-existing details yet, just "go out and watch for trouble and hopefully don't find any."

Re: The Machine-Gene War (3E PL9 OOC- RECRUITING)

In an unprecedentated "joint operation" not a "team up", humanity and the machines moved against Dr. Demented and his support group, the Black Talons, on the same day. Dozens of unique, very powerful machines were killed, along with plenty of American and Canadian super soldiers...
