Re: Protection
The amount of rant needed can probably fill a book or two. Suffice to say that I consider Imperiovus a terrible artifact of the M&M system. I understand the attempt to recreate Superman or Hulk marching through and hail of gunfire, but the going from 2e to 3e the effect went from insanely power...

Re: Protection
Impervious is a whole 'nother both of wax, and OH MAN is that one controversial. Impervious is unbelievably convoluted and weird, and the only thing in the game that works like this- it's an EXTRA that costs double itself, more or less, as you are now impervious to half its ranks in damage, to the ...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Alucard! Soma Cruz! Medusa! Death! Dracula!)
The Game Boy Kid Dracula was one hell of a tough game and one of my favorites way back when.

Re: Taros' Assorted Builds (Freedomverse Rogues! Black Vulture! The Battle Brothers! Cerebrus Rex! Doctor Shock!)
In 2e, I built one elite Star Knight at PL 15ish, but she was supposed to be the absolute peak of the team (and I rebuilt most of the Freedom League at PL10). How did you build him? Was he more of a better warrior with the template's standart damage and toughness or did his armor has better offense...

Re: Jab's Power Profiles: Enhanced Traits! Power Lifting!
The biggest problem with Extra Limbs is that it really doesn't do much and many of its effects are better simulated by adding Extras and Flaws to other powers. Moreover, with a few notable exceptions, many Extra Limbs users are alien or creatures with naturally occuring limbs, which would require In...

I had no idea this character even existed... which shows how far back I am with M&M publications.

Of course, the one time we get a water-based kaiju that is not a kraken... it's a bit of a joke.

Re: The Archetype Blendarama (Part 8! Mystic Cowl! Lucky Mage! Gadgeteer...ish! Light Controlling Alien!)
I was wondering if Light Field wouldn't work better as Improved Defense, rather than Protection/Force Field.

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Castlevania- Simon, Trevor & Richter Belmont!)
Among programmers the original Doom is often labelled "the perfect code", since the developers had very little leftover space. They had to write the entire code to be as efficient as possible, within the tchnological limitation of a computer of that time. In short, if you can't port Doom o...

Re: Total Recall
Total Recall itself is kinda funny, because I considered it pretty forgotten, because I'd forgotten an unsuccessful modern remake, plus that the famous "Three-Boobed" lady appears in the original. In it, Douglas Quaid is a construction worker with possibly implanted memories about being a...

Re: J-Mart: Spider Verse - Spiders, Driders, Spider Man India, Spider Woman Mayday
If anything, May inherited her mother's defiance to Parker's Luck. Save a few instances (usually when MJ had to step in), she defied many situations that would have caused her dad to go ballistic or curl down in a ball of self-pity. E.g. she literally called bullshit when Normie (essentially her ado...

Re: J-Mart: Spider Verse - Spiders, Driders
For me the biggest problem of the Driders is that they're often portrayed as bestial and having low intellect, which negates one of their biggest strengths: using tools to supplement their natural abilities. Also, I never really liked the lore of Lolth punishing them. I agree with your assessment o...
