Re: Jab’s Power Profiles: Extras! Drawbacks! Flaws!

It pretty much descends from the MSH/FASERIP power of the same name, which gave you the ability to put the higher of the two D10 rolls that you made in the 10s slot, turning a 49 into 94 and so on, which was, yes, something they came up with for Longshot.

Re: The Quintessons

-The Quintessons looked to be a one-off goofy "Random Encounter" threat in Transformers: The Movie , but turned out pretty much immediately to have a darker role to play- they were revealed to have been the CREATORS of the entire race of Transformers! In the very series that announces thi...

Re: Drawbacks

Check Required: A check of some sort is required to use the effect- DC 10 + the ranks in Check Required. If the check succeeds, you use your power at a rank per point you exceed the DC. A roll of "1" automatically fails. -A somewhat controversial thing, as you can throw your best Skill wi...

Re: Immunity: Armored

A laser/maser/lightning/pulson pistol is also a small arm.

Immunity (Power Attack) is probably worth as much as Immunity (critical hit). Make of that what you will.

Re: Immunity: Armored

What would you say to Immunity 20 (bludgeoning), Limited to Half Effect -- so that even that Power Attacking Strength 3 guy forces a DC 19 save, but the Power Attacking Strength 12 guy causes one at DC 23 -- plus Immunity 20 (small arms)? Assuming the tank has Toughness 12 ...

As a way of wrapping up the mini-series of the Dreamdancer's Four Heavenly Queens, I've written a short sub-index page about the Imagerie. You may recognize the map from somewhere else ...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (The Dinobots! Inferno! Jetfire! Megatron! Starscream!)

Oh hell yeah, Starscream, the best character in the franchise. G1 Starscream's iconic, of course, buuuuut...did you purposely leave off his "Immortal Spark" thing? Or is it just a bit confusing to work out? I’ve never heard of it. Is that why he was in Beast Wars? It goes back a bit furth...

... a thumb drive. And Shockwave would be a netbook. Both still a bit behind the times, but not nearly so much as a cassette tape and boombox would be.

Re: Extras

Affects Objects: Lets you affect objects with powers that typically only work on people (like Weaken, but it mentions Healing as well). -A +1 Extra if used for a power, making things like Weaken Toughness (for acids or disintegration rays) MUCH pricier in an annoying way. Though if it's Affects Obj...

The initial "Sovietski" section bled of either "something Kevin came up with at the last minute"
I suspect the former, given that he ALSO threw a new Soviet menace into the Robotech line (admittedly in the mid/late 80s, before the Great Political Messup.)
