[QUOTE="JollyDoc, post: 2753596, member: 9546"] Thanks guys for all the support. The game would be no fun at all if everyone played it the same way. Our style is not for everyone. We're not exactly the "I walk into the tavern and start talking to the barmaid" kind of gamers. We don't particularly enjoy "free association" gaming. I've done that before and it bored me to tears. We like plot, we like story, but we also like the action. It's fun for my players to play around with different builds. Hell, Joachim, Gfunk and Ika do it just for kicks. Not a week goes by that I don't hear from Ika that "I've got my new character rolled up just in case..." And it's never the same character twice. In 3.0 I had to totally nerf splat books because they were so outrageously broken. In 3.5, I've so far allowed everything WOTC, but we are finding several things that we've had to house rule, but you can't determine what that is until you've actually played with it awhile. As for a party of supervillians to put against the League...I probably won't do it for several reasons. First, I have to much first-hand knowledge of the PC's, and I'm afraid I would unfairly give the bad guys items and abilities to specifically counter them. Second, I'm a firm believer in the old adage, "if you stat it, they will kill it." Anyone remember the old god-hunts using the first ed. Deities and Demigods? How many of you out there ever had a PC who wielded Thor's hammer (raises hand). I like the nebulous uber-bad guy...ie Entropy. Entropy will forever be just a little more powerful than the most powerful PC. She is eternal, and my campaign world would be a little more empty without her. Next post soon...promise. [/QUOTE]
