Comments: Here is my first run at the newest Captain America, James Buchanan “Bucky/Winter Soldier” Barnes. I took a bit from my Winter Soldier build and some of my Steve Rogers PC build and here you have it. This Cap is just new to the role and does not have the advantage of the super soldier serum, so he’s not nearly the physical specimen that Steve or other Cap’s have been, but his bionic arm helps even things up as far as flinging The Shield and in hand-to-hand situations. His years of combat training with Cap and his training as a Russian assassin should make up for the rest in the long run.

Even though I think Steve Rogers will eventually return, I think this James Barnes (not Bucky anymore, that was his sidekick name, we don’t call Dick Grayson Robin anymore) run as Cap will be pretty good if the first couple of issues are any indicator.

Comments: It’s not perfect, but I am REALLY happy with the way this Spawn PC build came out. He’s not easy to fit into the playable format, but I felt like I kept his core abilities strong and put him in a position where he can hang with pretty much any of my PC level builds outside of the 2-3 big guns like The Hulk.

The one thing I ran out of room for was Hellfire blasting, but I think that could be power stunted and in the recent skimming I’ve done of him (good old Barnes and Noble and their open reading areas) he hasn’t used it much, anyway.

Description:


Created With Mutagen! version 0.8.7a - beta
Corporal David Hayes, USMC, died at Hamburger Hill, in the first minutes of the assault. However, unlike the vast majority of his compatriates, he just got up and kept on fighting. He hasn't stopped since, although he has had to change units since they deactivated the Ninth Marine Regiment.

Regimantal History in Nam:
On March 8, 1965, 9th Marines came ashore at China Beach as the first conventional ground combat unit in South Vietnam. Their mission was to defend the air base at Da Nang. The first significant contact was in April 1965. The regimental headquarters arrived in country in July of that year.

The Regiment saw action in Vietnam’s I Corps, primarily in Quang Tri and Thua Thien provinces, although a number of its earlier operations were also conducted in the southern I Corps provinces of Quang Nam, Quang Tin, and Quang Ngai. The 9th Marines served as a vital stop to the North Vietnamese penetrations across the DMZ and from along the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Cambodia.

Some of its early operations included Double Eagle, Macon and Prairie.

In April and May 1967, elements of the regiment defeated two NVA Regiments in the Hills north of Khe Sanh). In Operation Buffalo, elements of the 1st Battalion, 9th Marines made contact north of Con Thien with regimental-size NVA forces in an engagement that lasted through May, accounting for over 1300 enemy dead.

In one of the most successful operations of the war, the regiment conducted Operation Dewey Canyon in the A Shau Valley, cut by the Song Da Krong river. The 9th Regiment exacted a deadly toll on the NVA. These actions precluded another build-up and assault from Route 622 from Laos into South Vietnam as the NVA had the year before during the Tet Offensive.

Operation Dewey Canyon netted, among other weaponry, 16 artillery pieces, 73 anti-aircraft guns, hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition, 92 trucks, and hundreds of thousands pounds of rice.

In the words of Gen Stillwell in his report to Gen Abrams on Operation Dewey Canyon:

“...this ranks with the most significant undertakings of the Vietnam conflict in the concept and results...”

The 9th Marines were redeployed from Vietnam in August 1969 as part of the first redeployments.


Corporal Hayes was with the Ninth for the whole run of the war. After he died, it never occurred to anyone that his tour might be up, and he no longer cared. Coproal Hayes recieved a poasthumous medal of honor for his heroic actions at Hamburger Hill, joining the other 8 Marines of the Ninth so decorated:

Thomas E. Creek
John H. Leims
Wilson D. Watson
Louis H. Wilson
Frank P. Witek
Wesley L. Fox
William D. Morgan
Alfred M. Wilson
John P. Bobo

He kills zombies, you know.

Those last two builds back to back are perfect!

just bring cap back

Couldn't agree more about bringing back Mr. Rogers. But I have liked Mr. Barnes since they brought him back. I would just prefer our old Cap, like I prefer the old Green Lantern, even as I like the other 3 replacements a lot as well.

I just hope DC doesn't do something similarly ill-advised in their upcoming Final Crisis, although rumors of such abound. I don't want a new Batman yet and I don't want a new Superman or whoever. Let the old guard keep going and keep their "deaths" on other Earth's or whatever if they feel the need to have successors take on the traditional roles.

Comments: Always loved old Hawkeye. I was really torn about making him PL10 or PL11, but since I went with PL11 for Ollie, I figured I needed to be fair since in any crossovers that I’ve seen, they have always been equally matched.

A couple things about this Hawkeye build. First, I made his base attack pretty high since he has done a pretty good job in the Ronin role thanks to his hand-to-hand training with Cap. Second, I gave a little love to Ultimate Hawkeye version by giving him 5 ranks in the Throwing Mastery feat, since the Ultimate version is more like Bullseye and LOVE that “anything is a lethal weapon in their hands” ability. And I kept the EXACT same Bow/Device structure for him as I did Ollie since I really never saw a big difference in the things they pulled off. Any other trick arrows can be handled with a hero point.

Clean Up 2/10/08: Updated Hawkeye into my NPC building format. I also removed his deafness drawback since it never seems to come up anymore.

An update to my NPC Hawkeye build. Leading into...

Comments: I’m going to be doing a big Green Lantern/Sinestro Corps run shortly, and of course, the Green Lantern portion has to start with Hal Jordan, even though John Stewart and Guy are my favorites. Even as such, you have to give Hal props for being the main man for so many years.

This was actually a fairly easy build, all things considered. Just reviewing my PL12 and 13 builds of the GLs gave me a good base and then I just pared things down accordingly. Originally I was going to give up a lot feats and skills in lieu of Power Ring power, but I decided against it in the end and kept him pretty balanced. I’m a little concerned about Kilowog, though, because his physical skills, but I’ll squish him in to 150pp even if it slightly inconveniences me. That's just how committed I am to bringing in high quality merchandise for the customers!

Clean Up 7/22/08: Tweaked my playable Hal with the new Power Reserve format. He came out pretty well, but I am looking forward to doing his more appropriately leveled build.

JackGiantKiller,

That is a very good take on what the USM Corpse is all about. I commissioned the pic as I wanted an Undead that was not the eats people type. And was on the side of the good guys. The observant among you will notice that he has an AK and not an M16. Well he got fed up with the M16 failing during Vietnam and so got a weapon that was a lot more sound whatever the conditions.
(And believe me we've already had the M16 vs AK47 argument elsewhere)
Nowadays USM Corpse turns up to help the Grunts on the ground. He could care less about the people in charge back in Washington but once a marine always a marine. Semper Fi.

The visual, and the fact that he was a Marine, said it all. Semper Fi. (I wasn't a Marine, but I was a hospital corpsman attached to the Marines.)

Randall, this goes in the Original Villains section. In solitary.

Wha? Bug off. You don't even work here.

Do I have to tell everyone about the goose, the President, and the chocolate bars?

You bastard...

That's what I thought. Chop chop.

Description:


Created With Mutagen! version 0.8.7a - beta



Pandemonia, Lady of Nightmares and Screaming Insanity, is a demonic mage and Underlord from a Dark Dimension she calls Howling Limbo. She travels the Crosstime streams, trying to drive all she meets mad, as that allows her realm to spread into their minds. Her favorite methods are the mind-breaking sounds of screaming that she channels from her home realm. She also summons the many howler demons that live there.


Her Illusions, as they have the Disease modifier, in this case inflict the victim with horrible dreams that return until the disease is cured. No initial effect is obvious.

In my own setting, A World That Needs Heroes, she is an enemy of the Crosstime Omniversal Police, and thus, the hero Soulfire.
