OK. Point taken. You want a Hero Point for that bit of "inspiration?" I look for something in the engine that matches Sergeant's description of "spark plugs" and I crush all of them. There will still be sparks around my arm and the object being manipulated, possibly all the way out to the...

Just to clarify, this is all assuming that the vehicle in question is still stationary. Flux would not risk causing a traffic accident.

"No can do, Boss-Man. When I use my powers, sparks fly. There'll be fireworks." Flux's eyes go wide and her jaw drops open for a few second. Then she glares at Sergeant. "Gee, Sergeant O'Connor, your vote of confidence is positively overwhelming" she sneers. "So glad to know you thought I...

"Say the word, Sarge, and their car is scrap."

I'm doing the same thing.

I thought I did "overpower everything." I covered all of the core spellcasting classes. If someone wants to bring in something outside of the core rulebooks, he can 1) provide his own copy of said expansion, 2) loan it to me so I can familiarize myself with it, 3) loan it to the other players...

I'm giving out more spells per day than casters would normally get in standard D&D mainly for two reasons: 1) I would like casters to feel able to use some of their power casting utility spells and spells that produce minor effects without thinking it's going to cripple them the next time...

I'll concede that speed is certainly a factor. Put those elves on horses and they would be the most feared skirmishers the world had ever seen.

That would be They Live, John Carpenter's most underrated film, also starring the most underrated actor in Hollywood, Keith David. Edit: Grrr. I should really check and make sure there isn't another page in the thread before posting a reply. :(

From the first draft of the House Rules handout I'll be giving to my players. Magic Wizards vs Sorcerers Ignore the entry on Sorcerers in the Class section. We're not using them. I've rolled them back up into Wizards, who now get the best of what both Wizards and Sorcerers have to offer. There...

I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not. Just in case, I thought I'd weigh in. The problem with elves moving out into the plains is that, with their long lifespan and slow breeding rate, they tend to be vastly outnumbered in any armed conflict, especially against races like orcs and...

"No. I like coffee-flavored sugar in my milk sludge."

I finally have internet access at home again, so my replies will be more regular (not that I'm bringing a whole lot to the table so far :))

It just occured to me that her energy field isn't Subtle. So if we're in civilian clothes trying to blend in, she'll leave it off. If we're in uniform, then she'll go ahead and fire it up to be on the safe side, in which case there are some lightning arcs and heat ripples running up and down her...

Are we in our Resolutes uniforms or civilian attire? Immunity 25 26pp Super-Senses 7 7pp Flight 1 2pp TK Metal (Non-Damaging, Area) 8 34pp Total: 69pp/70pp

Flux spends the better part of the morning muttering "Bastards...they're all bastards..." at and about no one in particular - sometimes seeming to refer to her companions, the Resolutes in general, the U.N., the English, and then the people tailing Sergeant's car. Yes, Flux mutters and rants...

It occurs to Flux that her Resolutes team didn't exactly arrive under a low profile, and she starts to get a little paranoid. When the team checks in to their hotel rooms, she turns on her EM-Vision and walk slowly around her room and right outside of everyone else's. She look for anything...

Basically, yeah. :) That tends to be one of the consequences of obscenely large dynamic arrays. Keep in mind, though, that to reach truly ridiculous speeds, she has to drop other effects, like defenses, immunities, TK and super-senses. Depending on how fast she needs to go or how much she needs...

I'm taking 10 on Knowledge: Pop Culture with the Monty Python references (this is the first time I've been in an RPG where there was a legitimate reason to be quoting it. :P

Flux smirks. "I don't think 'Arthur' here will count for much, H.P. The British people realized long ago that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. After all, supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical...
