Message: <blockquote data-quote="paulewaug" data-source="post: 365223" data-attributes="member: 5899">excellent ideas all around so far!personally I feel that DBZ has several things in common with D&D/d20 that 4CtF will probably do well to bring out.They seem to have a kind of Armor Class (as most attacks either hit or don't really) and a Hit Point system (as the characters get ground down through serious pummeling) at work, the characters get sort ofdropped to their last few points, sometimes in that "0 to -10 hp" area and collapse and can take a sensu(sic?) bean and be fully restored (like  Heal). They make reference to what someone's Fighting Power is the same way DnD players would refer to Levels and Hit Dice.Also they gain experience through their fights and get more powerful.  They can use the DragonBalls to do various Wish type things, most notably to Raise the Dead.So for recreating a DBZ type/style  of character for me I would use 4CtFNow if I wanted to run a SuperHero game and make a character similar to Goku (which I would do if I ever play asuper hero game) I would think about DNW and have a Super Heroic good time using powers reflecting what the Z fighters do if not their raw level of power.  (Each next bad guy can blow up the planet and they throw around massive explosions of cataclysmic destruction but nobody has Yet blown the Earth up, although Namec (sp?) didn't do too well with Freiza vs. Goku..hehe)So you could have mega powered guys trashing each other and eveything in sight and just generally laying the smack down!Hehe you could play  "DNW@DBZ" heh hehAnd of course if you actually wanted to do DBZ in game (with "Fighting Power 1 million?!" <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" />and blowing up the moon) then I would hope that the DBZ game itself would be really good for that.Personaly I am not curently interested in Epic level so Cosmic level is way past what I want.I have to say-It's good too know there are several different sources to do such similar (yet each one still being different) kinds of things! That is the nice thing aobout having many takes on the system and gaming in general! So yes it really does depend on what you are going for.To me DBZ just seems to be well aimed towards DnD gamers..Hmm..so Deeds Not Words is d20 right? Could you add 4-Color to Fantasy to that siytem then!?  hehe..</blockquote>
