Power Armor / Robotics... is going to be awesome.

Post by BASHMAN »

I've been working on the Power Armor / Robotics Suite today. Some pretty amazing stuff coming down the line. Of course, all the "standard" stuff will be there: energy blasters, jet-boots, armor plating, you name it: but there will be a lot more.

Holographic disguises, gas vents, arm blades, poison darts, omni-tools, self-destruct sequences, and more powers await. Various different specialized environment suits (stealth, marine, space, polar, volcanic, subterranean, etc.) have been cooked up as well.

There will also be some Enhancements and Limitations, Advantages and Disadvantages introduced along with this Power Suite.

BASHMAN,

Not meaning to apply pressure, but can you give an idea of what sort of due dates you are looking at for the first Suite or two?

I am happy to wait for a quality product, and I am sure these will be that. Just hoping for a hint at scheduling for them.

Thanks

The plan was 30 days from the day of the final tally. So far, we seem to be on schedule, writing-wise.

Ade also just finished another project he was working on (Legends of Steel) and I'm going to send him artwork for Awesome Powers #2 next.

By the post made by BASHMAN on Facebook, it sounds like AWESOME POWERS supporters could be seeing #2 as early as this week. Yay!

Can't wait! How is the power index set up? Does it separate the core powers in the BASH rules from the derrived powers presented in the AWESOME POWERS supplements? Does it list the power name and give a short one-sentance description of it afterwards?

LOL. I guess I could just wait until Thursday for these answers. :lol:

It is available now!

The Index is just that; an index. The powers are listed in alphabetical order, and after that there is a page number followed by a code for which book the page number pertains to. BUE is BASH! UE (2nd Printing), AP1 is Awesome POwers #1, AP2 is Awesome Powers #2, etc.

There is also a list of Advantages, Disads, Enhancements, and Limitations as well. As time goes on, we'll be adding to these lists with every issue of Aweome Powers.
