I would like to test out how well I understand the Marvel Heroic rules. So I am gonna gm a Marvel Heroic game based on the Secret War storyline. This is a home made adventure, although I didn't make it. Credit goes to the Marvel Plot Points team. Anyway, in this event, we will be taking place in the present and the past. Although you won't be able to do scenes that take place in the past unless you spend a plot point. There are four event milestones. Two for the past and two for the present. There is also extra milestones for a character that you choose. To make this easier on myself, I will limit the characters you can play as. They are the following.
-Armor -Black Widow -Captain America -Colossus -Daisy Johnson -Daredevil -Emma Frost -Gambit -Hawkeye -Iron Fist -Luke Cage -Nick Fury -Nico Minoru -She-Hulk -Spider-Man -Wolverine
I will reveal the milestones tomorrow.

I played this Secret War adventure at a Meet Up. It was fun. I played Iron Fist.

So, would you like to play this one? I trust you on pretending that you don't know what will happen.

I just need one or two more before we get started. The two more part is only if Andyman does not wants to join. One more if he does. Hey, WK. Think you can convince your friend to join this One Shot game?

Sorry, but the only reason I wanted to do this is too see how good of a GM I am when it comes to that system. In other words, I want to see how well I understand the system.

I got that. I think you'll do fine -- you're a sharp writer. GMing is as much taking the initiative to give it a shot as much as it is experience. Only way to gain the latter is to do the former! I just don't want to play MH, lol...

Thanks toward your comment of me being a sharp writer. I am actually planning to be a writer some day. And I understand about you not wanting to play MH. But I still need one or two more people before I even think of doing this though.

I'll play to help an aspiring writer. It's been a while since I've played Hawkeye and he's interesting with either Cap or Spider-Man.

Hey, WildKnight. You think aragorntc would be interested? Seriously, I just need one more person before we get started.
Edit: Oh and here are the milestones I had promised a long time ago.
Milestones that take place in the past: "Track down the source" Someone is funding the Tinkerer's work. You need to find him and make him talk. 1xp when you encounter someone with the Tinkerer's tech. 3xp when you track down the Tinkerer. 10xp when you either capture the Tinkerer or he evades you completely.
"Speaking a language they understand" You can stop this threat. Are you willing to take the law into your own hands to try and stop future threats?' 1xp when you successfully enter Castle Doom. 3xp when you corner Lucia Von Bardas. 10xp when you either make an example of Lucia, or are unwilling to kill a head of state.
Milestones that take place in the present: "Who are you again?" Every goon with a metal suit is crawling out of the woodwork. You need a handbook to keep up with these guys. 1xp when you are confronted by a B-list villain. 3xp when you manage to enrage the villain by not knowing, or pretending to not know who they are. 10xp when you take out the B-list villain, or embarassingly allow them to stress you out.
"Break the chain" What's a "chain reaction energy flux"? IT'S A BOMB! 1xp when you take out a tech-based villain. 3xp when you listen to Lucia's villainous monolouge. 10xp when you either stop the chain reaction energy flux, or fail and allow NYC to be destroyed.
