… A Family of Immortal Superheroes …

posted by Ginger at 07:14 PM, August 15, 2004 | Filed under : GM Notes | Comments and Followups

Michael and I were talking about how we run combat in House of Cards, and we came up with what I think was the best metaphor so far for how we expect combat to play out: we expect it to play out like a Champions fight between supers. (Or between supers and mundanes, etc.)

I think Feng Shui fights run the same way, but I don’t have enough experience to say that for certain.

Celina is not AquaGirl. She is also not ready to fight Tritons, being very glad that in Rebma nobody cares if you've zassat.

I do like the idea of introducing 'knock-back' effects to Amber combat. LOL
