Hey guys,
I'm currently preparing to run a fairly generic Marvel Heroic game, with the primary purpose of introducing the system to some new players (while earning some experience as a Watcher while I'm at it).
As a test game, the format will be a little different than a usual game. It will be sort of like a series of one-shots in the same universe, but potentially with a different group of PCs each time - sometimes with repeat players if there is room, but not always in the same group makeup.
I know that silentking, Puck, Ushima, and Manticore have all expressed interest in getting to know the system already, so I'm going to be giving those 4 players priority - however, if there is more interest I'll start swapping in new players and/or creating a second group, etc.
As for the plot of the game itself, it will take place in a fairly generic super hero world that is NOT the Marvel or DC universe, or any other canon comic book universe. It will be a world basically like our own, only a little more super: super heroes do exist, and in fact roughly 1 in every 1,000,000 people has the potential for super powers. They could be born with it, they could be space aliens, they could have survived some goofy science experiment - whatever. ^__^ The PCs will each be one of these special people with powers of their own, who use them to defend their city against the bad guys.
A nice and simple plot so that we can focus more on the rules.
I'll have more details about character creation and stuff later, at which point I'll start taking concept submissions. Once concepts are approved we'll start some one-on-one threads where we can go over the basics of the game and come out with a functional Data File that is ready to play. And then it's action time!
So, I'll be in touch! Those who are interested, please sound off below!
