3rd and 16th: Clobberin' in the Streets


3rd and 16th: Clobberin' in the Streets

I can't get this idea for a reskin of 3:16-Carnage Amongst the Stars out of my head.

FA is "Fighting Powers" 
NFA is "Non-Fighting Powers"
Instead of a weapon, pick a power, the "kills" are now "property damage."
Alien Ability is "Super-Villain Ability" and might be one big bad, an evil super-team, or an evil organization like Hydra.

Need to think about this some more.

    I think the Threat Tokens represent a super-villain threat better than a set of individual stats like FASERIP (I still love FASERIP). It lends itself to the comic book cycle of initial confrontation, villain escape, next confrontation as the villain initiates the next step of his fiendish plot, leading up to the final confrontation with all remaining threat tokens. 

    Alien Abilities describe the villain's powers.

    Superheroes have their Strengths and Weaknesses shown all the time.

    "Hatred for Home" becomes "I Hate This City." Maybe everyone with powers has to join a registered super-team or else live in a kind of prison where their powers won't hurt anyone. Saving the city from unregistered supers is probably fun for a while, but...

    So what's weird is, I read this post before the image loaded, and the idea that popped into my head was a crazy brawl between Walter Hill-style street gangs.

    That would be pretty awesome as well.

This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
