Adventurious adventures

Post by Marve »

Just wondering if any of you know a good source of free superhero adventures. System doesn't matter ofcourse since it is usually very easy to convert to BASH!

While not free, the series Heroic Moments from Purple Duck games are good short adventures for a buck each

Yes.
Comic Books!
There are free comics online. Libraries sometimes have comics. And used stores, yard sales and comic stores often havevery cheap comics, if not give aways....

If you dig comics, you probably even have some.
Or watch a superhero cartoon...

Comics ARE "free" adventures.

I guess my Teen Titans and Alan Moore WILDC.A.TS comics can be an inspiration but they weren't free :P

Thanks for the links BASHMAN! I was simply looking for an adventure to kickstart my group. The team-up part is always the hardest.

Three words: En Media Res. You begin the story in the MIDDLE of the action. So the PCs START OUT fighting the giant robot.

AFTER that scene is over, you have the players do a "Flashback" explaining how they became a super team. Let each person come up with their own origin and how they got into the team.

Once that's set up, you begin working on the interpersonal relationships.

In my last gaming group the GM always started the adventure in a fight or with us setting up for a fight. It was a novel approach for me and it was a blast, really got you hooked from the first minute of the game.

I keep a database of BASH adventures in the Yahoo Group.

I'd love to find more.

Many of them are free.
