Arc won't complain. He's a good-natured old coot. :D
By the way, I've noticed you referring to characters as "Blasters" and "Controllers". Have you played City of Heroes at all? The lingo is familiar.
...g++ d%&mit, I just got a fresh urge to create my old CoH character in the LHC universe. Me and my big mouth.
*EDIT: Buckshot, your being a cosmic controller is pretty epic. Now LAY DOWN A STORY! We need an epic personality to equal epic powers. :D

No crazy magic katana for you!
Actually, Buckshot, looking over your powers again what rank do you have Disintegration and Animate Object at? Remember
The Alternate Power cannot have a total cost greater than the primary power. So a rank 10 primary power costing 20 power points can have any Alternate Power with a cost of 20 power points or less.
So Rank 12 Cosmic Power Control (24pp) could give you;
Rank 12 Healing (24pp)Rank 8 Animate Object (24pp)
Rank 6 Disintegrate (24pp)
Just making sure you know you don't get 12 ranks of a 4pp power for half the cost.
I think your pp's spent on powers might be off too. You have 64 up top but;
CEC 12 = 24pp
CEC feats = 3pp
Flight 6 = 12pp
Field w/xtra 10 = 20pp
=59pp
Also missing your saves other then Toughness in the sheet.

This is the way I meant it, I'll make changes to the sheet to make it more clear,

Ah, I had Immunity(Cosmic Energy)[5pp] but i forgot to transcribe it to the alias-I'll fix it.
Also missing your saves other then Toughness in the sheet.
D'oh! I'll fix that too.
Unless someone drops I think we're good with 4. Too many in Mutants and Masterminds and it get's too simple to solve every problems, somebody is bound to have whatever power is needed to instantly solve it.
I think the four current ones are pretty solid but feel free to follow the story in case something come up!
wait... you can link up with computers and you can't? then again I guess I am a super spy with no ranks in it. If we level most of my points would go to skills as he recovers some of his scrambled memories. not that leveling ever really happens in M&M games.
You gain PP through adventuring along with Hero Points and at certain times the power level is raised allowing you a new max limit. You'll all receive a certain amount of PP after this mission.
By the way Marshall, we're doing the pathfinder thing and combining Search and Notice together to be Perception.
Just a reminder M&M assumes that you're using non-lethal attacks and so I'll do the same as well unless you explicitly mention you're aiming to kill.
If anyone is curious about the Autofire the guards used it's a pretty nifty ability. You take the amount you succeed on your attack roll and add it to the damage DC max +10. Expect lots of twists and turns with combat as M&M allows for all sorts of fun ways to overcome obstacles.
Also is everyone enjoying themselves? Any critiques or comments so far?
Oh, Buckshot. The last two guards aren't in sight yet, they rolled really low on initiative so they'll come in after you guys have all acted on this second round, unless you want to ready an action to blast when they come through. Basically the other two were within a single move of the arch.
You guys knocked out the other four efficiently.
Boy you guys really have it out for the staggered dude. I suppose he is really really easy to hit though. You know you can do a combined attack that adds +2 damage bonus to the highest damaging person so long as the bonus from your attacks are within 5 points of each other.
Example. Durus, Collider, and Arc all hit SU-16-1 declaring a combined attack;
Then if all three hit, the DC on Durus's all-out power attack would be 34. That's a tough save to make.
Of course each individual attack does add the bruised condition, and can have the fun flare of conditions and what not. Just something I wanted to bring up while you guys are ganging up on a guy.
Hey MementoMori, is there a chance I could get your e-mail address? The others are all my real life friends so they're easy for me to get a hold of. You can catch me at kronvet at gmail dot com.
Also Combined Attack works just like you described.
I just read through the section on Knockback turns out if you suffer worse then a bruised condition you're knocked prone and sent flying a short distance if your opponent chooses. For simplicities sake please let me know if you want an attack to inflict Knockback and I'll assume you don't by default. This can be useful for positioning or for knocking a foe into a wall where they will take extra damage.
No problem at all. Thanks a lot for the heads up!
Who's your band?
We havent done anything as a band since before Christmas though. It's an acoustic band, just me and my buddy with a couple of guitars and I sing. Right now I'm just performing solo though, as my second guitarist goes to college about 3 hours away from me. Check us out if you'd like though.
