I don't have any but I would love to hear of creative uses for different spells. This is partially inspired by the "your favorite word for command" thread, and more specifically by Canada_K's post:

Once you go to a database driven site this is actually much easier. On my site (now defunct) using a database, xml, css, and xslt there is a view for pretty much anything you want. It's particulalry nice for presenting articles and such in a printer friendly format, but I also have options for...

I am at work and being fed! Executives are frying turkeys and giving them to me! And I'm on vacation all of next week! Just though I would share.

Harry Potter Ya know, that street, with all the stores and stuff on it. Some interesting personalities that could be borrowed as well.

Keep it comin!

More Please? Night Below has been sitting on my shelf for close to 8 years now. I've always wanted to play it, but never thought my group would stick around long enough to see it through. I will now live vicariously through you :)

I second this question. BTW, great job on breaking that down. I don't know that it made the system all that more clear to me, but you don't definitely stepped up to the plate there. The flexibility that keeps getting mentioned has now been proven.

Re: Re: Thanks and more please! I actually was just reading about this one. It looks like the system is back in Blood of Heroes. It looks like this reviewer has some mixed emotions about the other fluff tho.

Thanks Synicism, that gave me a lot more information. The flexibility of the system reminds me alot of Heroe's Unlimited, although it seems Hero is even more flexible with character options. I don't really mind the Palladium combat system tho... maybe a hybrid is in order. The complexity...

Re: Re: Thanks and more please! I'm afraid I don't have any specific questions without having read the books, as you said. I don't really want to buy those books just to find the questions that I need to ask to decide whether or not I want to buy those books... and now I just gave my self a...

I would like to know more as well. I don't really want to turn this into a war or anything, but more input would be appreciated. What specific things do you like/dislike? Also, was there a version of Hero using the Fuzion system? I keep seeing mention of something like that, but I can't find...

Thanks and more please! Thanks for all the advice so far! mmadsen, I checked out the thread you suggested, which unfortunately left me with more questions than answers :) I will be checking out the sites for all of the games mentioned in that thread tho, which is a good start. In my readings...

Having recently delved into my comic collection of several years ago, read many reviews (although not yet played) of Freedom Force, and seen some of the threads around here, I've been inspired to run a supers game. I'm wondering what systems are out there and what do people like/dislike about...

Wetworks it was. I just re-read those a couple of weeks ago while managing a garage sale. Not bad stuff, although it wasn't ever my personal favorite. Spine-snapper = Shadowhawk. It would have been good, if it weren't so darn gimmicky. The had stupid contests to figure out who Shadowhawk...

Hi, I'm the DM. I'm about 3 sessions into a new campaign and I'm already starting to get discouraged. Here's why... My group consists of 6 players, 4 of whom have roleplayed in some capacity in the past (2 quite extensively). All 6 willingly joined the group when I put out the call, there...
