Is it possible to use the powerdive charge in conjunction with swoop attack so you don't land next to the target of the attack? Like something Cannonball would...
... No. ... I'm only vaguely familiar with Cannonball and what he can do, but lets look at Quicksilver. When he balls up and bounces off folks, that's not a...
... entirely? ... Dave and I have worked on and off on 3rd ed for a while. We haven't done much lately, but things may pick up after the holidays. It would be...
... How about buying swoop attack with the "only usable as a charge" limitation? Cannonball is a human rocket, he literally flies around doing move-thru's on...
... Because limitations must be just that limitations and not an advantage. You can't charge and swoop attack normally, so it would be an advantage to do both,...
Another option is to buy his Armor, Flight and Melee Attack with the "Only Usable While Charging" limitation. The old school Cannonball really could not do...
... My only concern is the fact that he moves with such great speed even when he was young that it doesn't make sense for him to land next to a grounded target...
... Take a look at Hyper Movement. I think it will more closely model Sam's powers, and you could buy a limit on Melee Attack "Only After Hyper Move" or...
... I thought about this too, but since he wants to do it via charge attacks, he'll still end up in contact since he can't hypermove away. To make this work,...
... Personally I think just buy Ricochet attack or more likely Swoop attack and some Melee Attack bonuses (to simulate the charge without charging) and you're...
... Yea I went with the swoop attack + melee attack combo with the "only while flying" limitation, all in all a decent character, he just can't reach very far...
... I wouldn't do this as I'm pretty sure Cannonball can "fake charge" folks standing on the ground too and not just fliers. Remember you have to enter base...
... I hate to respond to my own posts, but while I still advise the above, I'd like to add another idea that may work for you. Buy your Melee Attack with a 1"...
Hey Scott, It would be cool if you have time to describe exactly how you go about basing your figures (i.e. what are the materials used). Your bases are...
Scott, Fantastic write-up. Good to hear from you as well. Thanks for all those links. I might just have to go out to Michael's today and try out some of that...
... Indeed. I'm all for easier basing, because I hate flock. Up to this point, I've been using this pumice base texture stuff I picked up at TheWarStore.com: ...
... that gel. ... My pleasure! Glad it was helpful! That pumice stuff from Warstore is very similar to the other products I've been using. Looks great! Scott...

I just played my first game and had a BLAST. Finally, a super hero game the "feels" like comic book action and adventure. My buddy and I played a game with...

Thanks for sharing! Does my heart good when new players come along and enjoy the game for the first time. I hope to get involved in another campaign here...
One other thing, Proteus. If you haven't done so already, please download last year's free Holiday Special. It has some new rules that speed game play and...
