Spycraft help

[MEG Hal]

Thanks I will do what you stated and max out Cha, get OK Wis, Int and get some Dex in there as well, and toys are cool! So I am mentally getting him together for Sat AM.
Thanks, if anyone has anything else to add, ideas, tricks cool toys etc...please add your comments, I am excited about playing.

If you're looking for ideas, I've just started my "A Character A Day" campaign for June over at Modus Operandi. If you visit http://www.modus-operandi.co.uk/characters/characters.asp?ID=4 you'll see the first 5. They might give you some ideas (and all sources are referenced at the bottom of each character, so you can tell what books you might need to get hold of).

Comments on the characters are gratefully received - as are submissions...

I really enjoy a good faceman. They're the starting class for my best assassin characters - not because they're combat monsters (though they are decent), but because they can get away with stuff . For a Disguise Master, Flawless Identity is really hard to beat. It lets a 1st level character create a roll that is simply impenetrable. IF you are wanting to add some martial arts fun to your abilites, Martial Arts is a good call (hence the name ), but I'd take a moment and look at Holding Basics... If you've got a team to help out, grappling/pinning can be extremely effective to set someone up for your partners. And Strength often gets overlooked (it's frequently considered 'dump stat - big mistake) so with even a moderate Strength, you may find yourself casually overpowering most opponents. Add Martial Arts later on, and you've got all the HtH skillz you'll ever need (ok, Holding Mastery may prove irresistable, but you'll want to keep your feat options open).

Thanks Morgenstem, great ideas and I will have to keep up with you and tell you how I did!
Sounds like Flawless is the way to go and wait a bit for the MA feat chain...

Get yourself a Glock .45ACP and some Black Talons for ammunition. Your Control will come to hate you for it. My Soldier (for Living spycraft) has those and it drove the GM nuts at Winter Fantasy when I was able to pull off a couple of near instant kills (thank you lucky dice).

"Ladies and gentlemen, for the next several hours, I will be your Control..."

It's Fixer/Pointman or Soldier/Wheelman, Hal. You have Fixer/Pointman...

LOL well now I know what I want to be so I am changing!


OK, Control?

Please, I want a faceman not a fixer, I made a boo boo.

That's fine. I just wanted to clarify...You might want to wait until Saturday and I caan help you with the other sourcebooks we are using. Also, look into D-0: The Power Brokerage for your Department...

D-0????? What is that?

And thanks for letting me switch, I will review the core book tonight.

Its your department. Each agent picks a department similar to a race. This gives you specific advanatages. Power Brokerage is pretty good for a Faceman.

Too bad this game is too far away, I'd love to actually PLAY Spycraft instead of just running it
