Specter

Are you looking for an online GM or in person GM?

Specter

A magic ring! But, not one meant for your fingers.

Specter

Vampires are insanely powerful if none of their major weaknesses are present. Sure a Nightbane can beat a vampire to a pulp faster than you can say "bazinga" but vampires can regenerate even after "death", pop right back together, and be all kinds of pissed off. A nest of vamps.....

Specter

Why roll when you can role? In a game where the players are part of a war... the war itself is just background. It's part of their story but there is no need to have random rolls to see how the war is going. The GM can determine that themselves right?

Specter

I'd say Nightbane can always see unless there is some kind of magic afoot... ie darness darker than no light.

Specter

A cloak with a connection an Astral realm that allowed you to pull out weapons and gear as needed.... that would be awesome.

Specter

I agree. Nightbane is a better name... it's a silly reason that it was changed but not all for the bad.

Nope, same book. I have both.

Specter

What the what?!?! You people have crazy munchkin characters. My most powerful PC in Heroes was a little over 50, and a little less than 50 in Nightbane.

Specter

Why not BOTH!? It can be a motercycle with a crocadile look. This is nightbane, I don't see what's wrong with that.

Specter

Yes Yin-Sloth is outdated, but the stats are easily updated. Usually just changing the amount of melee attacks and adding h.p. or s.d.c. and maybe some bonuses, but it's not too bad. As for the previous comment. I need to run things from other games because the monster manual for this game is 50 pa...

Specter

Admitedly it's spread out in other books but I don't understand why you would skip over Monsters & Animals to convert DnD. If you want to play DnD play that... or Pathfinder because 4th stinks. But, when I play Palladium... I use the palladium books.

Specter

Holy crap... was it this thread that summoned me back.

Specter

There is no reason to nerf the guy. I mean a little extra sdc won't matter when the pack of hounds drop.

Specter

Major Power Follow-port Like Teleportation but the hero is not teleporting to a place but is instead teleporting to a person. 1. Teleport to a key person: The hero must know the person they are teleporting to and they need to have had physical contact with them at some point in the past. The physica...

Specter

Well he doesn't wear the knuckle dusters all the time. He keeps them in a jacket pocket. It's more likely to see a blasting rod in his hand (yeah, I'm totally ripping off Dresden Files with this character, but apparently nobody in my group has read any so I'm getting away with it) the knuckle duster...

Specter

Have a sorceror with a enchanted knuckle duster.

Specter

Well, mine have AR... and need a called natural headshot to kill... if you're trying to kill them that way.. blowing them to bits works to. So does filling them with so much lead they fall to bits. But they are super hard to kill with the AR the way it is.

Specter

To be honest I like this RCC better than most of the stuff in the actual book. Besides maybe the Packmaster.

Specter

Well, I'm planning out a Dead Reign campaign. I just made character sheets and am using the setting that was in Rifters 40... I'm premaking everyones character sheets because some of my players are a bit lazy.

Specter

I would enjoy to see either a more modern update or at least a modern sourcebook. There are so many real world spy stuff and tv spy stuff that is cooler than what is in this book. I use N&SS for a suppliment for other games to check on martial art powers and combat stuff for that one player who ...

I aim for ruddy mysterious.

Hahaha!!! IT Crowd reference!

Events are changed by a lot more than what kids you have. Interactions with people change their decisions and what they do, which affect events and change the timline. Not really, if your kids were key forces for change eliminating you eliminates their impact. Just like if you prevented Martin Luth...

Specter

Once a player goes bad, they'll start to infect the other players with bad playerness. So, I lace the cheetos with arsenic and start over from scratch.

*A young man wearing a fine tunic enters the emporium. He approaches the clerk with a nervous air about him, checking over his shoulder and down aisles of strange potions as he walks* Excuse me good sir... I was with a woman of... disreputable morals... a few nights before and now I find my nethers ...

Specter

An ice cream truck. Packed with C4 and a remote detonator. Turn on the music and roll it down a hill. Do whatever scavenging you need to do but stay hidden and as far away from the zombies. Then about half an hour later... blow that popcicle stand.

Specter

I'll be buying this as Nightbane is my favorite setting. I wouldn't mind some info for different countries but I would prefer more info on Nightlords, Hook and Sink adventure ideas, and Nightbane throughout history (if only because the next nightbane game I run will be history spanning romp.)

Specter

That sounds pretty terrifying if they come to the conclusion that the supervillian is in control of their leaping. They would have to find a way to set things right without being able to head back. (ie send a letter of warning to their genius friend). Or get a tech or magic user to help them get to ...

Specter

Mrs. Ninja.

Specter

Four zombies? No wonder they didn't run away. More like fourty zombies! Boyah!

Specter

How does their time travel work? Do they have to go back to home base before each port or do they just leap from one time to another getting missions from the genius back in their own time? If the latter at one point a supervillian can find the genius and replace him. Then starts sending back questi...

Specter

Pearl Harbor but with a squadron of flying soldiers with laser vision. Also make one of the crazy powerful supervillians have time travel powers and start hunting the heroes down when he realizes what is going on. This builds a sense of urgency. As at any moment the big bad will be able to track the...

Specter

A Hardware Weapons expert I made for a player (I will make characters as some players are just too lazy to make their own) was a chemist who filled all of his bullets with a specially designed nitro glycerin which had a buffer/delay on exploding from impact so it wouldn't blow up in his gun or from ...

Specter

I really like Calcify Earth. Should it take two actions to raise up a spike once you've used a whole round to set this up? Would you have the ability to snag anyone with this? Just asking, but I love the flavor... I think I'm going to give one of my villians for my next game this power.

Specter

I've enjoyed getting a Heroes Unlimited game going on a semi weekly basis this month. This gives me an over all fix for gaming and has distracted me from certain negative things in my life. It gives me something to look forward to. Now one of the players is... interesting? He says a lot of things se...

Specter

Critical parry is when you parry so awesomely you blow your opponents face off.

Specter

It's cinematic, good for taking out tough zombies.... and just imagine bolting a few chainsaws to the sides/front of a vehicle around shoulder level.

Specter

I just got Rifter 40 and it's pretty exciting and I like the setting produced there... but I don't like some of the things I've read along the lines of what's in dead reign it's self... I'm being a little over cautious in buying product lately. Heck I still haven't bought Splicers which has been on ...

Specter

I remember Shadows of the South from a google search back in the day when I was running Nightbane. I wish I could get another Nightbane game going but some of my players aren't big fans of the setting. I need to find someone to run a game around here... or play. I've got such a Nightbane craving.

Specter

My strengths: I'm creative, quick on my toes, I have an even ammount of serious gaming and comedy to keep things interesting but not weigh the game down with meledrama... I'm decent with dialogue. My weaknesses: I do not plan out my games very well. I usually stat out a few monsters/villians and pla...

Good idea, thank you.

Specter

AlanGunhouse wrote:Hmmm, all your powers listed seem to do with liquid cement, what about solid cement?

Well, there is Matter Expulsion: Stone in PU1... so I figured that basically covered that. Do you think the power isn't powerful enough to be a major and needs more?

Specter

Matter Expulsion: Cement (major) "Somebody'll be around with a jackhammer to get you out in about an hour" The hero is able to expel cement from his body which quickly hardens to a rock hard consistancy. 1) Bolt of Cement: The hero flings a glob of cement roughly the size of a basketball a...

There are going to be common gods depending on the wants of and fears of the people. If the people are a war like people... there will be a god of war. From what you said already there is going to be a god of the sea, possibly another god who is a merchant as these people are all about the trade. Ho...

Specter

Nightmare Fuel (major) "I sense fear in you... let's bring all of that to the surface" The hero can see the fears that live in a person and make them very real. 1) Sense fear: Very few people are without fear those that are immune to fear and HF are immune to this as well. Sense fear 80%+...

Specter

Finally I was able to get Rifter #49 and go through it, and I do have to say I like most of what I read. Seriously considering using them in my Rifts and Heroes games (the 2 Palladium tiltles I usually run). Before I put anything in a game though I like doing the "acid test" and try to ch...

Specter

Temporal Combat (major) "I need to be in a dozen different places at the same time... can do!" 1) My own best friend: The hero can jump forward and backwards in time to team up with himself. He can jump within 1 minute + 1 minute per level. So at level one. he can have two of himself for ...

Specter

Doorway (major) Any door becomes a portal to any other door, by touching the knob the character connects it to any other door on the planet. No chance of failure. If the character is familar with where they want to go they will be able to travel to that specific door. They can also generalize to a ...

Specter

Melee (major) "I will defeat your southern preying mantis with my shaolin flaming tiger!" The hero instinctively knows martial arts... every martial art. 1) Identify style: 80%+3% the hero can identify a karate form within a few seconds, knows it's origins, and it's weaknesses. +2 to stri...
