Hi weiknarf mate!

Krusty...

might be another epic book

Yeah I saw that yesterday, looks interesting. Curiously it says a 96 page sourcebook for all character levels, so it may not be exclusively 'epic' (although I hope for the most part it is). I don't really know that much about Monte's Diamond Throne setting, though from my experience his stuff is always above average, so its probably very good.

Hi Fieari mate!

How's the PDF comming, Krust? Still on schedule for November?

Its coming slowly but surely. I had a terrible past week (due to circumstances outside my control) and thats probably going to mean I won't make November if I am being totally honest. However I'll try my hardest and we'll see where we are by November 30, I should be very close to being finished by then one way or the other.

That does it! I'm flying to Belfast to help out!

Frankly, I think it's much more likely that hell will freeze over. I'm still holding out hopes for a pre-Christmas release, though.

Hi guys!

Some updates on the website. I will either add the Theory of Superhero Relativity in about an hour or first thing tomorrow morning.

That does it! I'm flying to Belfast to help out!

I could probably use the help.

...I have a spell for that.

Well it is the season of miracles, I just hope I won't need one.

About Talos's Boiling Blood ability:

The initial damage from the molten bronze is fire damage and the secondary damage is non-magical bludgeoning damage, right? So damage reduction could apply.

Also, all the Achilles Heel thing does is render him vulnerable to critical hits, right?

Hi Anabstercorian mate!

About Talos's Boiling Blood ability:

Correct.

So damage reduction could apply.

Yes, unless the Anti-magic field negated it which is likely unless the DR has no element.

eg. DR 15/silver would not work because thats Supernatural, However DR 15/- would work because thats effectively Hardness.

Also, all the Achilles Heel thing does is render him vulnerable to critical hits, right?

Yes. I didn't want to make it too easy for people, that ability is slightly different from the Achilles Heel Divine Ability in the Immortals Handbook I have to say.

Well, later in the entry you state, under the Construct type listing, that he's immune to critical hits, so I was just a bit confused.
