Mike relaxed slightly at recieving Alexs response. He maitained his very physical presence between the others and the two armed scientists or whatever they were however. "Yea Psyche says Hope, Hellion, and Breakdown are with her." He responded using their codenames just in case, "Somewhere by Japan, Kaiju Island." He didn't recognize the name but it didn't sound good. His next transmision to Psyche seemed to take less effort though he still seemed somewhat distracted for the moment.

Regularity is important to the Super Set apparently. Also with the disappearance of Markk I was gonna offer Ace as a sponsor of this gathering if you all are interested. Or you can just continue with the meeting of minds thing you got going on :)

The use of Mecha and Manga stuff is under what seems fromt he outside to be heated debate by the Refs. If its a 'comicy' feat or something it'll probably work with a decent explanation if its pretty directly a Manga thing than probably not so much.

Mike shrugged uncomfortably at the question, it wasn't really that he was afriad of talking to Erin about the fight just thet he was pretty sure he'd just make it worse. "Nah, not yet, I mean my mouth is what got the whole thing started I don't wanna just make it worse." He explained. With a laugh he continued "Like I said I'm not exactly up on the nuances fo interactions here, I'm still not certain what set her off int he first place."

I think we've made some signifigant progress actually. As Doc said there are some imbalances to what he sees as the goal of the reward, that being that if you just want one character or don't want to upgrade your PL 6 to 10 for whatever reason the reward really doesn't apply. Also the partial rollover seemed to have alot of support. When alot of people only post once a day or even every other day its hard to say the 1 day is decisive anyway.

Mike surged to his feet placing himself between the be-goggled apparent kidnappers and his freinds. "Whats going on here?" He asked his voice low. While he waited on a respose he reached out to Alex over their link 'Are you ok? Mark, Erin, Chris and I are in some wierd little room with a couple people I think they are responsible for this.' To those that knew him it was clear from the somewhat strained look on his face that he was trying to converse with Alex.

Can I still feel the conection to Psyche?

Well I wouldn't suggest changing the old Gold upgrades around just say they got lucky and went gold before the rule changed. Maybe have a you went gold heres X PP to split amongst your characters as you wish? So you could add say 2 PL to one character or 1PL to both. Personally I would love the option of a third PC at gold as well but others have said thats not gonna happen most likely

Well things like high-explosives and gas grenades (Or micro gas pellets) are kinda staples of equipment type stuff here so really it doesn't seem like a stretch to me. For referance I don't think anything heavier than a dense cloth would really be needed for the deflect/shield aspect Kevlar is like bullet proof he's talking about deflecting slow projectiles and entangling fists/weapons to increase defense I don't think really theres anyway those aspets don't work as equipment. The gliding is tougher but in comics gliding on what amounts to a regular Cape is common its not until batman Begins that any atempt to explain the aerodynamics is made I really see it as in the realm of comic book fuzzy logic. Perhaps add the check required flaw: acrobatics to explain why it works? Part of it being the skill of the user?

Confusion passed across Mikes face for a moment as apparently Chis had taken his apology for a request of some kind. Now both Eddie and Chris certainly were more comfortable in social situations Mike was less certain that thier particular brad of socializing was for him. On the otherhand he had just worked things out so reacting with the horror he felt at the idea of trying to act like Eddie probably wasn't the best bet. Instead he decided to direct the enthusiasm towards something he actually did feel the need to correct. "Alright," He said non-comitally, "How about this then." He gathered his thoughts for a moment not wanting to go into to many details, "Summers suggested Erin and I work together on some training." His next pause was weighty and he was clearly trying to decide how much detail to go into, "It didn't go well." He fianlly said. "The training was kinda pointless but we got into a bit of an argument over our philosophies and she's been pissed at me since." As he finished speaking Mike tossed his hands up and waited for them to offer what advice they could.

Uhhm I thought all damage was assumed to be non-lethal unless specifically stated otherwise? Av didn't say he was doing lethal so it would be non-lethal and DS would have a bruise right?

AA is also gold though he just built at PL 10 so no need to roll over any PP.

Since the issue seems to be that that the Refs don't like the idea of a character suddenly jumping 4 PLs (though I don't agree as powering up is a common event in comics and most people do threads to explain the sudden PL jump like grims trip to Avalon or Belphagors trip to hell) But if the big jump is the issue than a jump from PL 6 to 10 is just as much and issue as 8 to 12 why not decide how much of a jump is felt to be appropriate and award bonus PP in that amount? So say they feel a 2 PL jump is what they want to see. Hitting gold allows you to create a second character at PL 8 120pp or add 30 pp to a current character that started at PL 6. It gives incentive to Earn PP on your PL 6 instea of just coasting for gold and ensures that a given character will only go up in PL as much as the refs feel is fair. Old gold charaters etc can just be grandfathered in so no big rewrites needed or anything. If the issue is really that a 4 PL jump is too much that seems to be the best solution. If the refs just don't want that many PL 12s running around then the current system fits, though people will hit PL 12 anyway so its not really solving that. All that said I'm fine with my PL 6 "just" getting a 2 PL bump even if less active PL 6s get a 4 PL bump, Really I just want to get to Platinum and another character slot

He got a 26 on a DC 30 thats failed by 4

Uhmm change in writers?

I'm also curious about the impact of Platinum status being available now on this Are the PP on the upgraded PL 6 kept track of for the purposes of going Platinum? IE if my Pl6 earns 31pp and I upgrade him to PL10 then he earns 29 more PP I've earned the 60 needed for platnum but if the PP wipe loses the first 31 then I need to earn a total of 91pp to hit platinum doesn't seem like it would work that well.

Sport or game the basketball-esq pursuit of the others didn't really appeal to Mikes sensabilities so he took the oportunity to pop out of the pool his normally loose pants clinging like he was in some kind of Calvin Klien ad. With a small laugh as he slicked his hair back out of his face he told the group, "Be right back I'm gonna get into an actual swim suit." After changing he took a few extra minutes to toss his sopping clothes in the drier in the garage before returning poolside his simple black bermuda shorts not as flashy as some suits but they got the job done.

As if to punctuate the point a five man heavy weapons team arrived and began loading up some kind of rocket device under the covering fire of the non-blinded mecenaries while another team moved to engage the flying soldiers of the Sky Lord sending two plummeting from the sky. Outside Scarab arrives on the scene to see smoke billowing from the warehouse as another contingent of Sky Lords rocketmen descend from the clouds.

Mercs attack sky lord forces Mercs firing at Sky Lord minions (1d20+8=14, 1d20+8=11, 1d20+8=28, 1d20+8=24, 1d20+8=17) 3 hits 2 down Initiative order Mercs 22 - 20 minions Scarab 13 - 2 HP - Uninjured Ace 13 - 3 HP - Uninjured Sky Lord Soldiers 10 - 18 minions (First Wave) Phantom 6 - 1 HP - uninjured Scarab arrives outside the warehouse smoke and sounds of gunfire eminate from within. Another troop of Sky Lord Soldiers is descending and should be arriving in 1-3 rounds.

Mike had shown up, there was after all pizza on offer, but remained quitely at the back. He tried to be supportive of the whole thing despite his own reluctance but recruitment was a bit beyond him. Which was probably for the best as he wasn't exactly the best speaker to be found. As it now seemed to be pizza time he grabbed a couple slices and began to dig in asking edge between bites, "So why are we looking for more people? I mean it seems hard enough to mange just our scheduals for those training sessions Summers is making us do."

I'd Like to take Phalanx and I'm pretty sure AW will want to bring Psyche

The location of the phone just didn't add up, something here was out of place and waiting was never one of Aces favorite pastimes. He alerted the Police he was gonna make the call and they should workthe trace as fast as they could on its current location. That done Ace picked up his phone and dialed the number waiting for his supposed tail to pick up.

An oldy but a goody. Two young people in love kept apart by the deep seated devide between their family turn the the only place they have left, Our Heroes. Ah but there is a snarl if this match is to be there could be a mob war unlike anything seen since the end of the Moore administration as the opposing families go after one another over the affair. What is a Hero to do? Opportunities also exist for the more mercenary sort to find gainful employment seeing that this match does not happen. Max 5 players preferably in the same PL range.

Ok as I have clarified my understanding of Dynamic with Doc I would like to represent the flight/superstrength array as follows (I think trying to use an array for a single AP was unneccisarily confusing for me at least) Flight 7 (PFs: Alternate power, Dynamic) [16] AP: Super strength 6 (PFs: Bracing, Dynamic) As discussed here And some tentacles for you!

Build it as a device that is hard to lose. This represents the belt itself that can be taken if you are disabled or whatever. Then the powers that are seperate weapons etc are powers in an array with a limitation (Must be in hand/can be disarmed) drawback At least that makes th most sense to me.
