[M&M] Ultimate Thunderbolts - FULL

[Dayspire]

I'm waiting for my copy of M&M2E before I make any specific character creation guidelines, but... Nuke is right for the most part. I was hoping to have characters that haven't made an appearance yet (or even in the immediate future). This isn't to say that if Plantman (or Verdant!) make an appearance in the Ultimates that Corvus has to comply with that version. Not at all. I'm trying to be close to the Ultimate universe, but not ape.

With that said, I'm not entirely against the idea of that character. I think I'm more concerned that... well... *damn* but he's a killer. Of children! Wow. I don't think any of the Thunderbolts have indulged in mass-killing like that. Most of them are ex-cons because they tried to rob a bank, take over the world, or something else equally villanous. But not so much with the killing.

It's all up for debate, however. What does everyone else think, considering we're still in the 'construction' phase?

Well, with Omega Red I was thinking that the russian government never told anybody he was the massacre of that church full of people. So there are very few people still alive today that know Arkady had commited that atrocity. As to his upcoming unvailing in Spiderman it is really up to you folks.

I've trying to come up with a couple other former villans that would be neat. Part of my problem is I have only recently really become interested in comics and don't know the 'Second-string' villans. I haven't read any 'Ultimate' series so I am just guessing that most of the major bad guys have already made an appearance.

Another possibility I was kicking around was Marrow.

Marrow could be cool, what do you have in mind for her?

I'm pleased to say that I picked up a copy of M&M2e today from a local comic store. It looks great! Now to get to the rules, see what's changed, and prepare (which I've already done most of it, so...)

Now, how many out there are planning on getting it? How many are not, and would prefer me to help them with their character? Let me know.

I've got M&M 2.0 . . . but I was waiting on everyone getting their copy before building the character.

Count on the Professional being worked on over the course of the next several days.

I have 2.0 on order at my local comics/gaming shop but do't know when it is due.

I bought my copy off Ebay on Sunday - hopefully it was shipped on Monday, meaning if I'm lucky, It will be here (Australia is a long way to ship a book) early next week.

If I end up holding the group up, I'm happy to work with somebody who does have a copy of 2e to make the character - I understand most of 2e, thanks to all of the previews that were posted over at the Atomic Think Tank.

I'm still 'studying' 2E... I think we have time.

As an aside - here's something I found. A scan of Taskmaster being... well... professional.

Sweet!! I've been hunting for a good up to date scan of him in the new (almost ultimate costume). Haven't started building yet . . . soon . . . messing with Star Wars, Dragons, and a couple of other things . . . like the living supers stuff here on the boards.
