My first post. As I've not played this game since 1987-92, I've grown a little rusty in the rules. Heck, we used Rules Lite back then and now that I'm starting...
My second post. I'm on a roll. How many powers can be running at the same time??? Let's use Jean Grey as an example here for she's able to do numerous things...

Uhm, it sounds like you played the original Marvel RPG game. This is the 2nd system, the one produced in the 90's, using the SAGA game system. No dice, and...
Yeah, 1987, bummer. Thought by the name of the title of this group, "Marvel Super Heroes Adventure Game by TSR" implied that it was the original game, not a...

Thanks to you all. While sitting in my office, I found an obscure refrence to the Tech Hero Question I had in the Players Book: Example: Iron Man's armor is...
To my dismay, that's what I've noticed as well. Take for example the newest Marvel roleplaying game, aptly named Marvel Universe Roleplaying Game. It was out...
I want to assume you're asking a question about Marvel Super Hero Adventure Game (MSHAG), since you used the word "stunt". If so, I believe you can have them...
I think that it depends. In the case of Iron Man, that you gave in the last post, I would have had him lose his Karma since everyone seen it as him. Likewise,...
Okay, but quick question: Wasn't it written in the rule book that one power can be used at a time for actions? Shouldn't it include stunts? Since a defensive...
