Looking to recruit additional players for my new campaign: MSH New Dawn

Characters are Canon characters, except with thier history erased to the point of Origin, so entire comic history wiped clean to basically day one.

The universe itself it a Marvel/DC/Image Comic crossover-hybrid - allowing players to select characters from the various universes.

The concept is to have group of heroes form first superhero group in a new universe.

Presently the group is comprised of: Speedball, Darkhawk, Spiderman, Mimic & Ghostrider.

I will also consider original characters, but they are subject to approval and canon characters are prefered.

I'm i and i got dibs on wolverine...

Granted..

My thinking would be Wolverine circa his first appearance.. no memory of his past beyond a few months/years.. recruited by the canadian government... adamantium skeleton and claws..

Looking at the already converted characters: Since when does Spiderman shoot electricity?

Also, which edition? Original Basic, Advanced, Revised Basic, or other?

Sounds fun....

Could I have Nightwing? (Need to find a decent write up for him)

Which edition, Basic, Revised, Advanced, one of the fan editions, a hybrid of the above?

I would like to play Kate Bishop from Young Avengers if you have room.

Hmmmm, when it comes to Mimic his canon write-up is a bit off, he was never shown in the comics having an upper limit on how well he could copy someone's powers and easily copied all the original X-men and Xavier and others. So there really shouldn't be a Monstrous cap on his copied abilities and powers.

As far as Spider-man goes, I can see a new Spider-man maybe having Remarkable Strength instead of Incredible but he wouldn't have Monstrous Agility as a newbie he'd be 'only' Incredible (you should download the Webs PDF it features Spider-man's starting stats just after he was bitten). He only really hit Monstrous Agility when he was reborn after 'The Other'. I also don't see where he gets the Blending or the 'Venom Blast', I don't know of any canon version of Spider-man who had either of those powers.

I also don't remember Speedball ever coming off as angst-ridden in his origins.

Found a write up for Nightwing on Ben Riley's cite.

I won't play Batman with an alternate costume.

How about The Beast in his original humanish form? He's not so over the top.

In regards to wolverine we talking his abilities as he was originally meant to have them or wolverine post uncanny X-men 150? Cause his powerset was originally different that what he evolved into. Just asking for clarification purposes.

Spiderman is a hybrid canon-original concept character.

Mimic well i capped him.. so get over it.

Speedball - That came right from the marvel wiki site.. so bitch at them.

It really depends on what you want.. as i said.. i am allowing some liberties...
- could go with what appears in the advanced judges book.. the ben riley version.. ect..

I am open to manipulation/liberties...

I have one player looking at a modified version of Raven or a possible down graded herald of galactus...

There's nothing to 'get over' other than the quite rude way you responded, my response was quite neutral and based on the comic book canon seen for him and certainly no justification for such confrontational behavior on your part. You're on a public forum and should expect feedback from people and not respond to it with such rudeness.

No 'bitching' involved, just a neutral comment based on what I remember of the original Speedball run.

I didnt ask for your judgment or feedback in relation to the statistics of the characters to which i found rather rude and judgmental in its own right - as i found that you were effectively dictating to me what stats should be in place for my own game, i didnt appreciate it and responded in kind.

Inquiring why a character had a certian power when originally didnt was one thing, effectively telling me what ratings i should be employing in my own game on the other hand i found offensive.

Canon stats have changed continuously since the origin of the TSR Game - even the very nature of certian powers have changed.

As with the above mentioned Wolverine - his Basic TSR Stats are different from his Advanced Stats.. which are different from Gamer Handbook stats.. which are again different from other sites and sources as well.

So you dictating to me what stats i should be using for the characters employeed in my own game - to me, is the pinacle of arogance and flat out rude.

Anyway... people who are joining should post on the forum on which i am hosting the game.

You have issues, I was dictating nothing. I noted you referred to using canon characters and noted some of the points where it appeared the write-ups you were using weren't quite canon. I didn't preface the paragraph regarding Mimic with 'While I know the game write-up shows that...' regarding him having a cap thinking it something that didn't need to be said it really didn't need to be said and you really didn't have any reason to go getting bent out of shape over it nor to consider it rude or arrogant other than again your own issues.

If you're so quick to misjudge things and get offended though I don't expect to see much in the way of satisfied players in the game because if my neutral post set you off anything will.

whatever dude.

ok found my way to the site and registered and such... will send you a PM for answering questions and the like.

I registered at that cite, but for whatever reason I can't actually post anything.
I'm guessing that forum isn't compatible with my phone's web browser.
Unfortunately it's not the first.
It could have been fun.
Good luck all.

Is the game still in play? There has not been much activity on the myth weavers site.

unfortunately.. my life exploded...

series of events pretty much crippled my gaming...
