beating the indestructible foe?

Post by kevperrine »

I've read (and listened, via podcast) about a facing the "indestructible foe" in BASH!

It's a classic trope of supers comics... Things like:

Spider-Man trying to stop Juggernaut, tricking him into the cement...
or
The massive Brimstone sent against the Justice League, with only nearly microscopic cracks in it's armor to be able to break...
or
The Superman rushing around to stop the massive earthquakes cracking the continent apart...


So I'm wondering...
When you Narrate such encounters. When you build the story and build the NPC, the villain, the event, etc...


How do you do that?
What powers and abilities do you give an "indestructible" opponent? Do you just give them massively high stats/powers? Do you give them "x" level and not worry about it?


I'm curious to know how Narrators handle this type foe (in creating stats) with BASH!


thanks
