Re: The Archivist = Broken?

What sources are there for healing salve? I only know of the Tome and Blood healing salve, which I don't think explicitly fits the description of things that can be made with Minor Creation.

Re: Logistics and Dragons: Running the Biz!

Many of the entries on the 'Business Related Encounters' table can be opportunities for the GM to destroy or degrade your business if you don't properly complete an adventure.[br]Perhaps this is useful as a balance.[br][br]Reading the business stuff, I noticed Frank had left all the 'and this can de...

Re: Ghost Touch

Catharz, are you saying that a corporeal wielder should be able to stick a ghost touch sword through a wall or not?[br][br]If so, should he only be able to strike incorporeal opponents? (this sounds sensible to me)[br][br]Or are you saying that the state of the sword, corporeal or incorporeal, relat...

Re: The Goblin Paladin

In order to work like that, the weapon has to count as both corporeal and incorporeal at the same time.[br][br]Corporeal so you can hold it..[br]and[br]Incorporeal so it can't be hit/can hit incorporeal things...[br][br]In which case, why not stab the guard/monster/whatever through the wall/door?

Re: The Goblin Paladin

Hits incorporeal.[br][br] A ghost touch weapon deals damage normally against incorporeal creatures, regardless of its bonus. (An incorporeal creature’s 50% chance to avoid damage does not apply to attacks with ghost touch weapons.) The weapon can be picked up and moved by an incorporeal creature at ...

Why can't HERO work just fine in a high-lethality Western situation?[br][br]A low number of points, normal characteristic maxima, no superpowers, hit-locations and your enemies wandering around carrying OAF RKAs sounds like high lethality to me.[br][br]I admit that from my reading of it a few years ...

Re: Alignment Sucks

Wouldn't the alignment-change be more like: Evil acts shift your alignment rapidly downward toward the level of evil of the act, but good acts only move your alignment up slowly?[br][br]That would better fit the usual view of good and evil, no? You have to do a lot of good compared the the amount an...

I don't know M&M, but I find it hard to believe that it doesn't have the same "If it isn't really a flaw/drawback, you dont get cheaper powers/extra points" rule.
