Super HeroScape
 

I am a heroscape, pen and paper games, and super hero enthusiest (commonly reffered to as a nerd). Well anyway, there is a download link at http://ryansmods.synthasite.com/ it is a PDF file.. have a look, give it a try and tell me what you think. The file is called Super HeroScape, and to it's not Marvelscape.

For all of the people leery about clicking a link from a newbie..this one is safe.

Maybe i should clarify a little bit. Super-HeroScape is a super hero based game. Players take points and custom build their own unique heroes and villains, instead of drafting armies. These characters can be taken from battle to battle, and by implementing a simple experience system, the characters will also grow in power from battle to battle.
The game is usually 2vs1 or 3vs1, with one player playing as a villain and the rest heroes. The vilain players gets to choose the objective, which is simply the scenerio, and the hero players have to stop him.
The game does incorporate regular heroscape figures and cards. The villain players gets to choose 100 points worth of 'minions' for every hero player he is competing against. This is to add balance, and add an extra layer of strategy for the villain player. Although villains are outnumbered they have final say on map configuration, scenerio, and have an army of minions, so it can be a difficult, but fun challenge for the hero players. I used blank heroscape cards, and printed them off for players characters who simply record their information on to it.

I really like the look of this idea. I've printed out the rules so I can try them out when I get home. I will comment back once I've been able to do more than just scan them over.

I like the idea of gaining experience and earning powers. Another thing I have always thought would be cool is if there were Armor and weapons cards to add to the heros.

Re: Super HeroScape
 

Weapons and Armor... hmm well simple, the experience points earned through battles could be used to purchase weapons and armor, granting limited defense bonuses or special limited use powers, such as a flamethrower that could only be used 10 times. The flamethrower, the follow the example, would be more powerful on a point to point basis, than simply upgrading your attack, but being temporary, would have a far cheaper cost. Like wise, the armor, may only defend you from 10 attacks in any battle, then you lose the bonus. Hmm ill mull this one over but seems do able. This rule could open up a whole new brach where hereos like batman and hawkeye run rampant with silly gadgets, i like it.
