2 Questions at the moment. 1) in the book on page 74, it mentions combining Mimic with Shapeechanging. A friend and I were debating the interpretation. He is insisting that it permanently allows the character to copy powers like Wings, Extra Limbs, and Tentacles at will. I am stating that it only a...

With the ability for Voice chat in discord, it can be a live played game, or a play by post depending on how the gm and players would want to run it. I'd be up for it, depending on the days and times.

Thanks folk, was helpful.

I'm new to playing rifts and currently making my first character. Been playing HU for years now. I am not able to find anything on Called shots for Melee combat. Was this a over look, miss print, or later corrected by a rifter issue, I'm not aware of? I have RUE and a few rifters and SB, and everyth...

Nice, I been playing on EU for years, but they have a one hero unlimited character at a time rule, I understand the reason for it, so others can play too. But as I want to expand my hero playing experience and play different types of characters it means I have to leave other characters in the dust. ...

Well in alot of the old Norse and viking myths, Loki wasn't Odins son, but his brother, it changes back and forth, but that's off topic. Don't forgot the classics though, the Super inventions , the magical liquid your asking for can easily be made under that category, something akin to negate super ...

That would be necromancy, with is a whole 'nother power category.

All the time. My players are infamous for calling me up with "we don't have anything to do tonight, wanna game?" when they know full well that I have nothing prepared. But I am a sucker for 80s action cartoons, and my players are not. I've taken to jotting down the basic plots of various ...

I think you got the idea of what I'm talking about out...the description I give me friend is "Quicksilver throws a punch...it hurts, Hulk Throws a punch...it hurts...Quicksilver with hulks strength...Superman punch..." (Since Superman has the speed combined with the strength) *Stamps* *Se...

I didn't vote, cause if I choose either yes or no I am agreeing with the statement following both, which I do not. Cold, preasure, breathing, Baron said it best, I do not believe the power is space only as one might think the name states, but this power would be perfect for Auqaman or Namor as well,...

TJ_1976

Well, I myself count the Natural Gen as a super class, that's why it IS a class, right up ere with Physical Training and ancient mast, and super sleuth, and super spies . . . so I have no idea why the military, in a military vs. supers’ fight, have a super class . . . Off the top of my head, the onl...

I see someone trying to use "Doomed" as a weapon through Grant Powers or some thing along those lines, Though I think I am definatley going use the orgins stuff and add it to the random tables I have.......Though I do gotta say, my fav is .... Bitten by a radioactive Tarsier http://img165....

TJ_1976

At some point, the issue of why the hero has powers comes into play. Winged Flight that is an inherent biological function as part of an alien species should not fall prone to negation, whereas winged flight powers resulting from experimentation and mutant traits might. Nor should powers granted by...

Vaccums of space (Or just lack of air) Supernatural strength (or weapons) Gravity powers Stasis powers Any kind of matter/incasing power (except if possess SNPS as well) Powers that remove or disable powers (Multiple selves/negate super powers + weapon is my fave) Mind control/Possesion and those ar...

TJ_1976

I remember it saying the same some where off the top of my head, but my group has allowed it if it was a added bonus of another power that was not just more strength, for example, your APS metal with Supernatural strength, their are multiple ways I have seen this used, it is a favorite combo of my g...

TJ_1976

PU2's Immortals class is indeed a Mega Hero, anything with a mega power is considered a mega hero according to mega heroes, and they reiterated this in rifter 37.

TJ_1976

I have always felt that bio-armor was a weaker version to ME Metal.

TJ_1976

Getting back on Topic though, I would support these other categories. They are long over due.

TJ_1976

Now this is reflection of comics, as i said in another thread, where not every hero has the same powers. some are faster some are slower(even if in recent comics this difference seem to not be depicted all that often) some are stronger than others (read WWH to understadn what I mean). In most comic...

TJ_1976

The write up for it is as a major, as if they meant to include the power among the other majors but just have not gotten to it yet. I assumed everyone does. like my group and myself, and just include it as another major. we nicknamed it the unbreakable power, cause it comes with it's own weakness, o...

TJ_1976

You can also just make them mega once you talk to your GM and show the problem with the class, their is a new Mega power for gizmo's that has a section with adding powers to worn items, Super Powered Gadget. with the cost of a Mega power you can get 1 major or three minors added to it, which could e...

TJ_1976

Under water abilities as a major has everything the minor has plus it doubles all the attributes, and you still have the option of playing a underwater type on land so you have the bonuses on land, make it a mega with the double option on it and that is x 4 and it give you supernatural Strength as w...

TJ_1976

I figure a mutation is more likely to happen then any cosmic rays, so I rolled on the following from Kittenstomp, Mutant power selection and mutant characteristics, and then the powers. Mutant Characteristics: *2* characteristics: Unusual Ears: Pointed, and Odd eye color:Metallic Silver, red, or gol...

Plus his cape has hidden pockets in it which he carries a spare and his normal clothes anyway.

TJ_1976

Just call him what he sounds like and stop dwelling on his skin... an "American Patriot"or a "American" or even "Patriot" especially since the public and the heroes know who is really being endorsed, remember, he can pick the name, what ever name that might be even &quo...

APS: Magma + ME: Stone. This character has the ability to cool their surface lava, giving a dark super hot & cracked look. I am picturing a large stone creature with volcanoes emminating from various point of his body, like the shoulders and limbs and back and chest, giving him the appearance t...

TJ_1976

Huh... Despite my utter dislike for you, I must say that it "is" in fact, not such a bad take on the power combo. Good and playable. I'll give you a reluctant thumbs up. Merow? Did I do something wrong or poke you with a stick?.....or if this is a Joke that I totally missed then yeah .......

TJ_1976

Got a Idea for a character, hear me out, and sorry about dredging up a old topic, but it was here, so anyway... New Idea, ~I think anyway~ Mimic with shape change and multiple selves, The Mimic and Shape changing Abilities only work for the multiples, and the multiples can only be created if you hav...

TJ_1976

eh, I would had gone with aps void control void and transluminal flight, the combo gives you a various assortment of powers,then again that is 3 majors.

TJ_1976

What about tomorrow, thats funny because I just had a meeting of the various heads of state, and some of the more prevalent super beings, and I had the leader of the premier team (equivalent to Superman of the JLA) assassinate the leader of the USSR. and in my world, the USSR is still one of the do...

Racism has never been a problem for me, friends don't make comments about me or mine or my siblings races in Anger, that's part of the reason their friends, I don't recruit gamers from the eagles nest bar or skinheads inc. So not really seeing much of a issue. Father is half Mexican and a huge horn ...

TJ_1976

So hard to choose,but in the end I chose VU2. I would like to see PU4 though much like PU2, for new catagories, but with all we have as it is, PU4 is already made really,the new catagories and 20 other powers that have been hinted at could be a book as is and could easily be filler in a VU2 book as ...

Look like Real life Super Inventions are starting to get some serious R&D. (Research and Development)

Considering I own the first two I would have named off as their own games already, how about Ac comics for the golden age flavor.

TJ_1976

Always forget about Vision.

TJ_1976

well pacemakers are technology and you don't die if you have one,because Bionics are internal,apart of you,i would say they still function as normal limbs,but any extras like laser or the such don't function cause at that point their function switches to external. That and when they were written is ...

I can't beleave anyone hasn't mentioned this yet,but the borg from Star trek next gen is perfect with their sloppy looking style of cyber parts,and their are tons of pics of cons floating about. Oh yeah. I forgot about them. Good call. Hence why I said I can't beleave.... , and with all the black t...

I like the idea of those legendary warriors from the books that have captured their readers imaginations. My choice, I would have to say, is a dual class mega from Rifter #37...for example. Ancient master + Alien (Abrasive atmosphere)= Hugo "Samurai" Danner Extraordinary Speed Lightening r...

TJ_1976

the links still work,i just tried them,they work fine.

I will send the links in a pm box for you alan,maybe your just having problems with the original site forums

TJ_1976

Something involving the ability to regenerate from skeletal remains sounds good too. I believe the Mega-Invulnerability involves this. It would be impossible to vapourize you, making death impossible. Man I'm too good... Though actually someone could negate super powers on you Unless you were some ...

TJ_1976

I see Bueno Esqueban finally got a sidekick....at least i think that was his name,he fought crime through the power of perversion.

TJ_1976

For a crazy hero concept,a radioactive (insert animal here) with Rabies,plain and simple

TJ_1976

I think it would be a trade off between that and the CoH creator program. One benefit of yours is the ability to pose them however you like, while posing is limited on the character creator. But character creator, even being in Korean and me not speaking a word of it, is easier for me to use. But y...

TJ_1976

My first thought was chips and salsa, but I don't think that's quite what you're looking for... I'm really surprised no one has said APS: Bone or ME: Bone. That's a good thing, though, as that combination IMO would cheesy. To avoid conflict with a certain character, I'll avoid adding in claws, rege...

TJ_1976

Yes,Titanium is one,Tungesten is another and is super heat resistant,some where around here is a discussion on properties of metal,i am just gonna refer to that and be done with it,i think it was in a aps metal discussion

TJ_1976

Well hell,if your in a city called palladium and your sticking with a group called (blank) Unlimted,then just stick to the cheese that is the modus operandi and call it Heroes Unlimited,but as is i finally voted on just The Unlimited.

TJ_1976

LOL 38 people read this, but only 6 people voted... You dont have to leave a message, but please vote!!! I didn't vote cause i didn't like any of the choices, I agree JTwig on their being a " Other " section. Maybe another play on words that haven't been overplayed like a carlos mencia jo...

I rolled three different times trying to get different sets for idea's and here is what i came up with, 3 powers each go at it 1 major two minors . Set 1- Energy explusion:Energy Aura ,Matter expulsion:Spit spikes , and Control Energy:Magnetism. set 2- Control Energy:Control Radiation ,Energy explus...
