Sphinx is very much a 'cheerleader' character, offering bonuses to his allies while dishing off quick platitudes that are terribly mysterious. i can't really say much else, s the Sphinx is Terribly Mysterious. so mysterious, that even he doesn't really know what his powers are besides cutting guns (and other things, i'll give him benefit of hte doubt) with his mind

"I should do this now-- Don't know when I'll get the chance again. I want to thank you.

"Really. From the bottom of my heart.

"It's not very often that I get to cut loose like this. I mean, really cut loose, like I have here. Usually, there are so many mission parameters. 'don't destroy this.' 'keep this person alive.'

"But not here--not with this planet. For whatever reson, I don't really care why, to be honest, I was told -- Take control, no matter what it takes... Take control of the planet.

"So whatever you did to piss us off-- Thank You. this has been fun."

:for those following jabroniville's thread and deciding to start reading Invincible, Conquest is the big bad of the current story arc. one of the oldest (and presumably most powerful) viltrumites in existence, Conquest is their 'effiency expert', giving him two simple jobs: to destroy the enemies of the Viltrum Empire, and to conquer/destroy worlds that have proven... problematic. and since the domination of earth is way behind schedule, he has come to finish the job, and anything dumb enough to get in his way.

I'm not going to mice words. Conquest is a monster in every sense of the word. aside from Omni-man, there is absolutely no-one in my arsenal of bulds who can stand a chance against him. he doesn't have fearsome prescence because he is not a being of terror. he is a person of mass destruction. I was sorely tempted to make him PL20, but i figured PC's should get a fighting chance.

[MorningKnight]

On DeviantArt, I've been seeing the pencils for the pages featuring the Conquest/Invincible fight.

A two page spread that only confirms your assertations.

[Arthur Eld]

Your Omni-man build has a slightly different power set than Conquest (mainly Super-Speed) seeing as how they're both Viltrumites, I was wondering why that is?

well, one, i built omniman ages ago, and i didn't look at it when i built conquest

second, is that well, i don't really see conquest focussing on speed or quickness, and that's why he just has +20 initiative (which i forgot to account for)

[Arthur Eld]

Ah, I see. Makes sense. Fast flying and high init are pretty much good subs for Super-Speed anyway.

One more thing: I'm using your Bizarro build for one of the MGK fights, and he has CON and STR scores of 32 each, yet his damage and toughness are listed as +12. What's wrong, the bonuses or the ability scores?

considering i built bizarro wayyy back when, quite possibly both. however, looking at it again, it's the ability scores that're wrong. it should be 34 to STR and CON, not 32

lead human soldier from the transformers movies, Major (former captain) Lennox is onne of the few humanson earth who has fought the Decepticons in multiple engagements and lived to tell about it. heck, if he hadn't already been picked up by NEST (a joint US military/Autobot strike force), lennox and his crew would surely have been picked up by G.I. Joe.

the inclusion of the twins, to say nothing of heir reception, has been, er, mixed. but while they may be redneck bots who apparently only learned about earth by watching MTV, they got a few laughs from me and the rest of the audience on opeing night. probably helped that they never quite got a closeup cuz even for moviebots, these guys got the ugly stick

[MorningKnight]

Two things on Herbie:

1 - he could have been an early awakened, and slightly damaged Transformer. He's sentient and capable, but his communication abilities and his transformation abilities could have left him frozen. Herbie might even be Bumblebee's grandpa (ah lad, you're not a Bug anymore?)

2 - how would you handle some of his stunts, like the Anatomical Separation in the first movie?

[Kreuzritter]

the same one would another pc, by stunting, extra effort, and xp purchases

Ok. I'm thinking a power stunt off of Growth, as it makes sense in that manner.

the showstopper of the earlieriest TF2 trailers, Demolisher was all but a signed promise that RoTF would make up for the shortcomings of the first film while compounding o the good parts. more to the point, once he was recognized as an excavator, everybody realized he was a constructicon, and just who demolisher was really heralding.

:arow: yeah, i undersold demolisher's size, mostly because his wheels move in a slinky-style array (ie: his wheels alternate between top and bottom)
