[QUOTE="aramis erak, post: 8055807, member: 6779310"] I've never played the MURPG - I don't do pure point-pusher systems. I have read it, tho'. MURPG does explain itself well. To be more clear: MURPG is a randomless system; it's all about the multiple pools of points and how much you're willing to allocate. Marvel Heroic is about narrating your dice into your pool, and choosing when to nerf yourself... Essenitally, Pick one from each category of ratings, and roll them all, remove all 1's (and convert them into complications in exchange for Plot Points), then pick 2 of the remaining as your success total, and one other as the effect die. the number on the effect die (2+) is immaterial; it's how many sides the effect die has that matters. The categories you pick one each from: Number of Heroes (solo/buddy/team), Distinctions, Each Power Group, talent, opponent complications or damage, scene conditions. Plot points allow a second each. You must narrate to use. Just to forestall requests for the other one... MSHAG: Marvel Super Heroes Adventure Game (Saga System) is a card based TSR game. It plays well, and while I like it as a pick-up marvel game with pregens, it's got some issues as a campaign game. [/QUOTE]
