Masks: A New Generation

Because I don't want to watch both of you die.

This is going to make her easier to spot or something because usually firemen's outfits are rather bright colored and so on.

They're not usually bright yellow.

But even without the shield, Captain America would find a way to deal with a flying villain.

That is the idea of Mars.

You decide that that is.

In D&D, you have to make the conscious choice to take something that can hit at long range.

So how do we combat this? There's many different ways, but...

To stay on the topic of verticality for now at least, verticality can be a bitch, especially in games like D&D, where measurements are actually applied, where you have to make conscious choices based on those statistics.

In a game like Masks, or in a game where there's no hard measurements to find, nearly everyone will always have something to do.

That, that's a tough call.

I think probably Masks, just for ease of getting into things.

And-

Because character creation there is easy as hell.

Mm-hmm

...

I would say that I have played or read that are also as easy as Masks.

But I w- I would definitely classify them as a different thing than Masks for this instance.

Yeah, totally.

This is where I wish we were playing Masks 'cause Masks has, uh, instead of ability scores, it's, like, ratings or something like that, and you-

Mm

... either roll plus freak or plus mundane.
