@Tenro: Glad to hear you did OK in the storms.
@WhtKnt & Reckless: Have fun at GenCon. I am betting it is going to be quiet around here. ;)
@xabulba: is there a reason we should be hiding? I am imagining cosmos as something of a glory hound. Unless there is a reason he shouldn't be. The ship can cloak, it's trivial to hide it. At this point he wants to be seen unless there is a reason to hide.
You only have to hide if you want to hide, Cat Chris 114 and Liberteen have reason to hide but there's nothing stopping Capt. Cosmos.

Attention all PbP GMs and players: I have spent the past five days in the hospital, having pretty much gone from returning from Gen Con to trying to spend a day feeling better and then checking myself in when the pain got too intense. I had a few minor surgeries, and am recovering well. I apologize if my sudden departure caused any issue in any of the games I run or play in, but I assure you there was no way for me to communicate the issue (I don't generally carry a cell phone, and my daughter "didn't get around" to logging in and letting you know like I asked her to.) Please let me know my statues if I am playing in your game (and believe me I understand if you had to move on.) For players of my X-Men game, hope you're still around and interested.
This message is being spammed to all relevant discussion threads, after which I will be catching up with any involved game threads and probably logging out for today; I will be back tomorrow and able to resume normal play (today I need extra rest still- hospitals DO NOT let you sleep.)
Thank you everyone sincerely,
Stratton Liberty aka Reckless
Glad to hear you are through the worst of it. Take care of yourself!
Take care and get better, we can work you back into the game on your time table, just glad you still with us.
Great game so far guys, loving the dialog between the characters.
Exppppppppppppriance time!!!
Everyone gets 2 Hero Points and 2 Power Points.
Birthday weekend begins now, be back in a couple of days.
Happy Birthday!!! Enjoy!!!
Happy birthday xabulba !(auto correct was rather determined to correct that to canyons of all things)
I'm back.
Thanks Capt and Cat.
I got a PM from someone asking if they can join the game, because it's your game also I told him I would present it for a group vote. Let me hear your opinions. His alias is Radavel and I recognize him as a long time presence on the boards. I even think we played in a game or together.
fine with me.
More the merrier in my book.
Good by me.
Sounds good to me does he have a concept already?
@Liberteen - Do you carry a cell phone with you and if you is it on?
Yes, and yes.
Sorry about the abrupt transition but I couldn't think of a way to seamlessly move on.
No worries a Jump cut is an old stand-by of superhero movies. That's no problem.
Should we sum up what we've been doing in the discussion thread or game-play thread?

Yes and extra power points if you do a really good job of it.

Your power point total only came up to 142 so you have 8 more power points to spend. I also need to know what sense tied to danger-sense and tracking. Herolab also shows 9/8 for toughness, you have 10/8.
Are we allowed to spend those 2 power points before the fight starts?
I was planning to put a multi-attack setting on my PPG, and horde the other one.
I bet cat would like to spend them on some more Dodge or Parry defense. ;) Sorry that I was so slow on this. Back to school is a rough time.

Your dimensional form was over by two points but if you remove precise and subtle from Dimensional Phased, useless for that power anyway, it works out to 152. You also need to pick an attack effect that can still affect you in your phased state, if you don't I will.
BTW if you hadn't noticed RL has settled down and I'm back to my regular posting cycle.
QNetic I was studying up on your new forms and noticed a huge flaw in the Dimensional Phase telekinesis power. You only have 1 point in the effects corporal extra, that means your telekinesis only has a rank of 1 when effecting corporal items. With a TK rank of 1 you can only move up to 100 pounds and any damaging attacks against corporal targets would only be rank 1 also.
When I designed the transmat, I built it with the unreliable flaw; basically 50/50 odds of working on a given turn. The thinking was the operator is messing with the controls to get the lock, there is no way to tell how long that will take, but it takes move+standard each turn, so you have to spend most of your action futzing to get the lock, even in perfect conditions.
That way it's more like the Star trek transporter and less like a superpower.
Yeah, I screwed up on that form; here's a version with some fixes- I'll load it into the profile. I kept precise because that allows him to phase parts of his body if he wants.

@Chris 114 - Sorry if my response came off as snappy.
Was thinking of having an American flag symbol, actually, Captain. :)
Well, that says liberty... but it doesn't say Teen... So what about an american flag in a heart? or perhaps a pony?
Ooh, a stylized flag in a heart shape.
@Chris 114 - Sorry if my response came off as snappy.
i didnt think it was snappy. i did change to melee form when i moved to attack him, however i didnt explicitly state it (i thought i had). I would have had to change to that form to attack him with my failed armblade attack.
Don't forget that you have hero points that can do stuff like this;
You can “edit” a scene to grant your hero an advantage by
adding or changing certain details. For example, a hero
is fighting a villain with plant-based powers in a scientific
lab. You deduce the villain may be weakened by defoliants,
so you ask the GM if there are any chemicals in
the lab you can throw together to create a defoliant. The
Gamemaster requires a hero point to add that detail and
says the right chemicals are close at hand. Now you just
have to use them!
How much players are allowed to “edit” circumstances is up
to the individual Gamemaster, but generally hero points
should not be allowed to change any event that has already
occurred or any detail already explained in-game.
For example, players cannot “edit” away damage or the effects
of powers (hero points already allow this to a limited
degree, see the following). The GM may also veto uses of
editing that ruin the adventure or make things too easy on
the players. This option is intended to give the players more
input into the story and allow their heroes chances to succeed,
but it shouldn't be used as a replacement for planning
and cleverness, just a way to enhance them.
You can spend a hero point to gain the benefits of one
rank of a advantage you don’t already have until the end
of your next turn (see the Advantages chapter). You must
be capable of using the advantage and cannot gain the
benefits of fortune advantages, only other types. If the
advantage has any prerequisites, you must have them to
gain the benefits of the advantage as a heroic feat.
One hero point allows you to re-roll any die roll you make
and take the better of the two rolls. On a result of 1 through
10 on the second roll, add 10 to the result, an 11 or higher
remains as-is (so the re-roll is always a result of 11-20). You
must spend the hero point to improve a roll before the GM
announces the outcome of your initial roll. You cannot spend
hero points on die rolls made by the GM or other players
without the Luck Control effect (see the Powers chapter).
You can spend a hero point to get sudden inspiration in
the form of a hint, clue, or bit of help from the GM. It might
be a way out of the villain’s fiendish deathtrap, a vital clue
for solving a mystery, or an idea about the villain’s weakness.
It’s up to the GM exactly how much help the players
get from inspiration and how it manifests, but since hero
points are a very limited resource, the help should be in
some way significant.
You can spend a hero point to attempt to counter an effect
used against you as a reaction. See Countering Effects
in the Powers chapter for details.
You can spend a hero point to recover faster. A hero point
allows you to immediately remove a dazed, fatigued, or
stunned condition, without taking an action. Among other
things, this option allows you to use extra effort (previously)
without suffering any fatigue. Spending a hero
point to recover also lets you convert an exhausted condition
into a fatigued condition.
Unless otherwise noted, spending a hero point is a reaction,
taking no time, and you can spend as many hero
points as you have.
Please use them, you always have one at the start of a scene and extras are awarded for role-playing, amusing the GM, side stories and the like. It makes the game more fun for you and me.
I am becoming more familiar with the combat rules for M&M3 and realized we were doing some of the combat wrong in the first scene, so here are some clarifications so everybody is on the same page;
1) the -1(bruise) damage and the staggered conditions are cumlitive but dazed is not. The dazed condition only lasts until the end of the of the characters next turn no matter how many times dazed is inflicted. A staggered character who is staggered a second time is knocked unconscious, if they are staggered a third time they are now dying.
2) You do not to roll to hit with area effect powers, if a character is in the area effect of a power they can (if able) roll a dodge check to avoid some of the attacks power, DC equals 10+PL of the attack. If the dodge DC is made the PL of the attacks is reduced by half (minimum of one) for the resistance check.
