Well to combat that whole "+8 to a dice roll due to +3 in this Ability and +3 in that ability ect" issue, it might be wise to implement the Combined Effectiveness whereas the total dice roll bonus of all applicable Abilities and their levels should not exceed +5 and even then it should be...

Sounds good! I am a fan of "container" Abilities, like Transformation and Vehicle. At the moment, I am advocating Gear to work the same way. This will help give players a boost in power without always needing that power and keeping their general power level manageable. Keep an eye on combo...

Do you mean, like how one character could have +33 in Abilities and -36 in Weaknesses while another character could have +12 in Abilities and -8 in Weaknesses, and since both fit in the Base Zero rules, they are both legal characters? That is something I've scratched My head over before. My solution...

So, unless Saber changed his mind, the vote is for the DoomStar scenario without the Monstrous Abilities. I am voting for DoomStar with the Monstrous Abilities. Sniffy, do you have a vote? If we do go with the Monstrous Abilities, it will be story related. So you won't need to use your points to inc...

It is leaning that way. If you have an opinion, please feel free to share it.

Basically yes, especially in comparison to other mecha designs out in the wide internet yonder. And if I recall correctly, mostly Awkward Size is largely environmental or rather how the mecha responds to obstacles. For example a small mech would have trouble going around a building and see through ...

The first act of a protagonist is to die, now why does that sound so familiar....? Destiny? No, we were skeletons for a long time. In Another World With My Smartphone? No, but it does ring a bell. Oh! I know! Konosuba-! We're not gonna meet Aqua, are we? That didn't really end so well for Kazuma. I...

So, Shin Megami Tensei (roughly) means the true resurrection of the goddess. Ironically, the games have little to do with a main goddess, as SMT is actually a spin off from the Megami Tensei novels, so the goddess part became less important to the stories. I am to work on that a bit. Meaning, in Hen...

Ky-Mal https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/lego/images/a/af/ArmouredZod.png/revision/latest?cb=20130325092657 Stolen from Krypton as a baby by the mysterious New God Metron and given to the Lord of Apokolips, Darkseid, Ky-Mal was raised in the brutal Killoseum. Under sadistic expiramentation by Des...

Yeah, but considering that we're on a pleasure cruse and, unless were boarding armed not unlike Deep Rising, we're basically tourists or even spies at best (keeping in mind Corbin Dallas on the Fhloston Paradise) and have to scavenge for weapons that are either very scares for security detail weapo...

I was thinking lightsabers and Jedi junk, but it certainly can be left to player interpretation for what you'd like. With only the fainest of thoughts of what we're up against on this pleasure cruse (and knowing that we're probably not going to get weapons anytime soon because of it), let's go with...

I'm not sure I get what the Aided Use weakness is and what it does. Is it like ammo? Or slots to be equipped? If they're equipable slots, why is that a weakness, since modularity would be an advantage? I'm also confused about the Awkward Size (small). Is that to suggest they are smaller than average...

The Last Starfighter is one of My favorite movies as a kid.

Anyway, the Aurora has a Health of 20 but Frail -1.

No love for Mecha Destruction/Durability?
