Super heroes RPG

[Sen Udo-Mal]

would love to see a good d20 supers

I am not sure if it can be done. A yahoo group has some good ideas (and a old stab in the dark that I did for Brave New World). One guy there has a pretty good Marvel d20 that he is starting. Its still pretty new but it could be cool.

NOW I am waiting for this one even if it isn't d20 (I think I could covert it pretty well)

Adam Warlock better be in the new minis game!

It has Infinity in the title!

Besides I asked Monte if he could put him in (please don't disappoint your #23,432,424th fan!)

*scratches head* I can't for the life of me remember which superhero is my favorite...

Alright the comic geek in me is really coming out on this one, but with Infinity Abyss coming out this summer not only will Warlock/Starlin fans be in for a treat but hopeful it will get us a Adam Warlock mini. So keep your fingers crossed and buy Infinity Abyss, at the very least you'll get to read something good.

His Dreadstar stuff is some of the most overlooked work I know of.

Amen brother!!!

I still regail my friends those awesome stories. They should have ended the series after the fight with High Lord Papal though.

Not there is anything wrong with with the possibility of a decent D20 super hero system as already stated Champions 5th edition is actually coming out and Blood of Heroes by now Pulsar Games has good mechanics for supers as well.

I wouldn't want to say a good all around D20 system is impossible, but I think it will be pretty challenging. I can more easily see certain genre's of super hero's games working though. Especially low powered supers. Characters that are normal humans with the exception of just a couple powers. It'll be interesting to see what's presented.

No need to wait for a great super game on D20 though. It already exist at least twice with out the D20.

They have also announced a new game Wild Talents... Effectively "Godlike with the doors blown off" Which allows you to create your own game differring from the Godlike WWII setting...

God I love this game

If you want to play supers you need to go with Champions it's the best system out there. Just make sure as a GM you keep a tight watch on your PC's or play with people you can trust not to munchkinize.

The ame is so flexible that it can be abused very easily. But since it is so flexible you can do just about anythign you can think of. Can't wait for fifth.
