[QUOTE="Kevin Perrine, post: 1713590, member: 20347"] Good call... Answer - NO. I should have spelled this out better. The Villain Point rules I posted...... COMPLETELY my first run at this planned to playtest with. My intention was to ASK you folks for input, feedback, and additional ideas or changes to what I have listed. It's TOTALLY not fair (or my intention) to limit the awarding of Villain Points with Deathtrap creation as an incentive ESPECIALLY if your villain wouldn't do deathtraps. That would be wrong. the idea was as an example... Appropriate genre conventions for a villain's personality that YOUR character has is what will award the Villain Point. For Example: Batroc might see (his) team facing the X-men and see Wolverine being attacked by the entire group... That's not very sporting and Batroc could DEMAND his team retreat for him to face the short Canadian on his own, having the others finish the crime at hand or the other X-men. Having done THIS and facing Wolverine one-on-one would totally fit in Batroc's villainous genre convention and would earn him a VP for making it happen. Same said if he saw the Enforcer's put Wolverine in a deathtrap situation, while the team escaped - but then snuck away to return and free the Canadian... because that is not a fitting end! that = a Villain Point Does that make sense?? any changes/additions to the VP rules I posted with that to help it fit ALL types of villains better? thanks -kev- [/QUOTE]
