Icon Escapades 01: A Divergence in Time
Publisher: Wizarddog Entertainment
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 12/26/2017 14:08:48

An interesting adventure for Mutants & Masterminds 3e likely to be run over at least two sessions - primarily aimed at a beginning group of heroes but with a little adaption can be used with an existing group of heroes.

A time-travelling villain needs components for a device to change the future and uses various opponents (dinosaurs, legionnaires, a KGB sniper and cyborgs etc.) from past and future to attack and steal in the present.

The heroes are assisted by a future Time Agency agent who empower the heroes to stop the disaster that will change future history.

This has the potential to be a really useful series of adventures if it continues and I look forward to future products.

I dedicted 1 star for the quality and very mixed styles of artwork used, some good, some acceptable and some very poor - this adventure deserved some continuity on quality and style throughout.

I also felt that some of the opponents were a little lacking in originality and challenge for more seasoned groups and will need spicing up a bit if its going to prove a real challenge for a more established group.

Overall I really enjoyed.

If you're expecting an adventure that can be set in a well-known 2d6 universe, don't buy this - however if you want a homage to the TV series Space 1999 and love the idea of having a homebase the size of THE Moon flying through a hostile universe and some fun ideas then this is definitely for you. Be warned despite the page count there is a lot of information crammed into 2 pages and is obviously a work of love.

This supplement was provided for free via the travellerrpg website and recieved the following comments when released:

This file is 382 pages of absolute gold for free.

So overwhelmingly good! Latest T5 style world stats and comprehensive library data. So much to explore, and so many directions a Referee could let players take an adventure easily because of its comprehensive nature.

Magnificent!

Go get yourselves a copy and read, if you can not think of at least one adventure from each letter or even each subsector then you should hang your head in shame. People, religions, companies, worlds and lifeforms its all there just waiting to come to life in the Rimward Galactic Province. Go explore, get mugged, make a fortune, lose a fortune, have an adventure or two.

it is indeed a fabulous piece of work - thank you

I downloaded it and am impressed with the amount of detail and the quality of the work.

This is the right way to do a sector book.

A separate FREE Referee's Guide to the Sector - 'For Your Eyes Only' can be downloaded for free from http://wiki.travellerrpg.com/For_your_eyes_only

Rogues, Rivals & Renegades: Companies
Publisher: Vigilance Press
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 05/14/2016 10:45:23

Last in the current series of Rogues, Rivals and Renegades - RR&R Companies lists three that aren't actually big bad megacorporations run by actual villains - instead they fill that moral/immoral middle ground of organisations that result in corporate interference in the lives of the heroes. There are times we all need organisations the players can interact with that aren't either outright villainous Lexcorp rip-offs or hero worshipping support organisations, This supplement fulfils that need with three very different organisations.

Vulcan Energy is a company that cuts corners and is willing to make dangerous decisions if its liable to increase profit, Saito Solutions is a company at the cutting edge of rescue equipment who are also responsible for equipping the hero Safeguard so don't want to admit that their technology had been misappropriated to create a villain and Little Sister is a hacker community / NGO that may be useful to the heroes one day and publicly exposing their ID or revealing all their secrets to the public the next.

As a GM you can't help find a use for at least one of these organisations in your campaign.

Rogues, Rivals & Renegades: White Room
Publisher: Vigilance Press
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 04/18/2016 12:20:50

A psychic agency named after a psychic construction in Astral space where its operatives meet, led by Mr Ullyses who may or may not resemble his astral projection and Ms D who may be the only person who's met him face to physical face and knows who he really is.

How you use this psychic agency is up to you but it's presented as neither an enemy or a friend to the players and with an agenda all of its own.

Nice write-up, good ideas and sufficiently vague to make it easy to fit it into almost any campaign... Now if I could only stop hearing Cream playing in my head!

The Template Tome

Date Added: 04/01/2016 13:57:43

For a first product this is a superb little must have and certainly means I'll be adding this company to my list of must follow for the Mutsnt & Mastermind games system.

Have a character who can change powers? use the statblocks provided to quickly and easily add in new powers as needed. Want flying monkeys, take a basic monkey template from the core books and add in the statblock from this pack for winged and instantly you have your Oz opponent ready to inflict on your players!

Wonderful. Can't wait to see what else Purple Prose produces...

Enemy Strike File: Der Jager (Mutants & Masterminds)
Publisher: HAZARD Studio
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/31/2015 05:31:33

Second in the M&M series of character transfers from the Icon system, this issue continues to populate a super-world by detailing Der Jager, a hunter of men. The character starts out hunting terrorists (for money for those who like their villains motives black and white) and finds a thrill in hunting human prey. Equipped with suitable weaponry he decides to set up elaborate “games” where his target will be given a chance, all be it a slim one, to “earn” their continued existence, by proving themselves a worth prey. The hunt is his motive and he will target hard targets such as the heroes as well as other criminals and of course his services are for sale provided the hunt can provide a suitable challenge.

This is a well thought out hunter character, the artwork of De Jager is excellent (though I'm not as fond of the artwork for his wolf Loki I'm afraid), has links into the Earth-Prime Universe such as being an enemy of Raven and comes with a series of suitable plots, quotes and traits that work well for the character. Der Jager's PL 10 build is appropriate as a foil for your Batman-type hero or possibly de-powered superhero on an individual basis or as part of a team who would take on a group of heroes by dividing them up to try and conquer.

Well worth the money.

Super Powered Legends: Ripper
Publisher: Rogue Genius Games
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/21/2015 13:07:44

Ripper - a female blade-like character who finds herself being unsheathed by a vampire, Milady Pierce who trains the girl as an assassin; a tool to eliminate her rivals in Britain’s vampire community. Having used her to eliminate her rivals Milady then made the fatal mistake of revealing to Olivia her complicity in her plot and attempting to eliminate her. She retaliated against Milady and destroyed her court of vampires and Milady. Now she's out to destroy all the monsters.

My only regret is that Rogue Genius still don't bundle their builds with the herolab files.

The ALGERNON Files Deluxe Edition: Brainchild
Publisher: Wordmonkey Studios
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/21/2015 12:12:53

This is a must buy - a villain that has been around for decades, able to jump from body to body until one day he accidentally finds himself trapped in the body of a young girl, his powers mutated and changed. How do the heroes take down a villain hiding in a little girl's body (even one hiding inside a robotic exo-skeleton) with the press watching?

There is an excellent character with a detailed background and interesting adventure hooks.

by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/21/2015 11:43:10

Mentor to magi, disdainful towards mundanes, enemy to magic slayers - Covenant walks the line between dark magic and white, has links to the Library (see Vigilance Press' Black Chapter) and is immortal. If you have magic users in your campaign then she has all the elements to be a major character in anyone's game...

A must buy!

Enemy Strike File: Permafrost (Mutants and Masterminds)
Publisher: HAZARD Studio
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/16/2015 10:57:12

Originally released as an original Icons build, first thing to note is that Permafrost includes a herolab file (which should be considered the standard these days) even though the producer fails to mention that in the main blurb.

The package details a fairly basic ice-based character whose origin is just as basic "former research scientist, who was conducting cryogenic research, when a lab accident caused his equipment to explode, covering him with a strange brew of experimental chemicals."

That isn't a problem as it makes it very easy to adapt the character to fit your gaming universe and what I especially liked was that he was German not American - I know its only a small matter to change the country of origin but its nice to see the beginnings of a world being detailed.

Artwork consists just the one image - reprinted three times, the character details such as origin, combat tactics, personality & character traits (predictably cold and calculating) Quote and plot seed (not quotes and plot seeds when only one of each is offered) and the character sheet for a PL10 character.

This is very much a what you see is what you get with this first M&M3e strike file and that is not a bad thing. I really look forward to see what else is produced by them in the future.

Rogues, Rivals & Renegades: Captain Archon
Publisher: Vigilance Press
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/13/2015 05:15:54

In a market saturated with villains it's nice to find a publisher who realizes the importance of other NPCs your players can interact with and Captain Julia Cunningham (AKA Captain Archon) is a superb character for your players to interact with.

I'm a great fan of Vigilance Press and the quality of their products and the greatest praise I can give this product is that as soon as I bought it I started thinking how can I make this character a major NPC in my (non-US) campaign?

For anyone with a campaign, this is a definite must-have character...

Rogues, Rivals & Renegades: Mithra
Publisher: Vigilance Press
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 08/11/2015 10:34:25

Sometimes your heroes want to visit foreign countries, see the sights and have a fight with the local heroes. Mithra is an Iranian hero, a "Good Guy" who fights to protect the people of Iran and who will be the part of the welcoming committee if the heroes ever come visiting. He's a moral dilemma - a hero who loves his country, his religion and his people and who believes in supporting a potentially hostile government. As always good value for money.

Road Rash - AoV Solo (M&M3e)
Publisher: Xion Studios
by Jae C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 08/05/2015 12:22:39

Just purchased Road Rash (the latest AoV) and discovered that it still comes with the herolab files so that's me buying back in as a regular purchaser -

Road Rash is another fun build... He was born with a faulty immune system, as an adult his friend Toby infects him with an experimental cure only to discover that it has side effects (what turns out to be a mind-controlling rash) and was actually backed by a criminal network (H.A.D.E.S for those who use the AoV universe) who attempted to kidnap him only to fall foul of his newly activated powers themselves leaving him free to control people through touch (and through an infected’s touch). Road Rash can now quickly gain an army in only a short time using his powers.
