Echoes of the Multiverse

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 I...

Backlift, involving several cars. Arguably, 3E getting less granular does kind of mess with this a bit. 2E had maximums where you could basically lift it and stagger with it. 3E, if you can lift it, you can throw it 30 feet.

As with many other grappling hook style items, I'd argue for Limited Flight since he can ascend, fairly large distances in the 3D remake, when he retracts it.

Also, Robowarrior with similar gameplay to Bomber Man, but more of an exploration adventure.

One thing to note for enhanced trait, specifically enhanced skills, is that it's a bit ambiguous as to whether a limited flaw would move skills to three ranks for Power point, as per the fractional cost due to a negative modifier, or the 2e setup of four skill points per Power point, where it's clos...

Catching back up- has anyone had luck in building an effect that adds flaws and disads to an existing power? The classic example would be to make a power go out of control or otherwise become a liablity. Thanks! There is a decent argument for building that as a kind of Affliction. Compelled/Control...

One way to look at it is that it goes until it's interrupted. Human vision lets you routinely spot something obvious such as a lit candle in utter darkness at a range of about 2 miles. However, obstructions, or even light pollution, greatly reduces that ability to spot it. Same for any other ranged ...

so yeah harry can tosse a fireaball without his blasting rod no sweat its just a lot easier to do and less draining to use the rod or staff Which could of course be either built mechanically, like Catalyst and her Control Rod that removes Tiring from her Blast, or as a Complication for when it come...

{nods} Or playing up that all magic has Complications/Flaws/Quirks to model that, e.g. all magic is contract based, involves swapping favors, or taps into some central resource that will be disrupted with overuse, with Power Stunts being much more likely to trigger it since it's not something they t...

WEAKEN: [/size] ... Fixing It?: [/u] I think I would make Affects Objects only a Feat for 1 point instead of so pricey. And probably reduce the recovery time, maybe making victims make a check each turn to see if they get the 1-point back. Ooh, I like that. Maybe recover 1p per degree of success of...

It's worth mentioning that, in the case of wanting to target Effects instead of people, the counter action will do the trick 90% of the time, so long as you have an appropriate descriptor.

As a side note on the Battle Arena Toshinden version for Game Boy, that and the Samurai Shodown adaptation on the same system where excellent examples of how to adapt to the medium. Obviously, it turned into a 2D game. But, they also turned it into a super deformed art style, since larger sprites re...

Snare was definitely one of the bigger casualties of their "Let's stuff everything into the Affliction box". Like how do cut the bolos off of a teammate? Can you do it on your own turn instead of waiting for the end of it for the automatic save? Personally, I've handled both of those with ...

Wait, what? Fortitude Saves are usually higher than Toughness saves?

Truthfully, I do often see it. Players tend to trade off toward Fortitude over Will, and without a defense/Toughness tradeoff...

Scuttlebutt is that the film got heavily chopped up, in part due to the films getting scrambled around due to COVID. Originally, Scott worked for Kang for a longer period of time, believing him to be a legitimate ruler of the land, and of course, Scott and Hope got to actually make their heroic sacr...
