Do Something Awesome

First Post
Here is a special 'session power' I've made for my group to try and encourage them to break out of the habit of just using their powers every round.

This kind of thing has been mentioned before (maybe by you, I don't recall) - I like the idea.

But what about Ranged stuff? Or do you have a card for ranged?

Also, what about damage? Do you pick something or let them suggest?
 


Good point about range - I've modified the card.

For damage, I'd use page 42, and choose which column to use depending on the 'awesomeness'.
 


I always like the liberal use of page 42
Here is an extension any time they do something that sounds cool if it doesn't fit their powers exactly but fits the theme of their powers give them a +4 instead of the +2...
That +10 is over the top.. but once in a while an over the top could have the spurring effect you are after.
 


Yep, I couldn't remember where the idea first came from, and I know it has been bandied about for ages. I was just sharing the card I had made up to implement it, with the hopes that others might find it useful.
