If you did decide to go with the Minion/Sidekick route, a flaw for hostility would definitely apply. That's why my potential build of my wife will come out so cheaply....

Ya know...comments like that will get you plenty of wife aggro, and I'm bettin' yer no tank...

Trust me, my wife has EVERY reason to be aggresive! Even I drive ME crazy...

Ah, yes, DnD's armor. Not made in the best way it could have been done, I certainly made better armor systems (though I never finished creating the games , probably because of my short attention spans).

Oh, and you meant to say Medium reduces movement to 75%, and Heavy Armor reduces movement to 50%.

Just helping.

It works for what it does; I've created better systems as well, usually i prefer a hit location system. I've added the mystial properties from an earlier post and added it to the list.

Cool stuff. It's nice that you were able to make your vehicles affordable, though I suppose, a starfighter isn't ever that expensive for the most part. Great use of the AI, reminds me of when I built a carrier with remote fighters (ala Starcraft) and it gave an enhanced minions feat.

[JoshuaDunlow]

Okay here is the infamous Riddick, i hope i did him justice. I think the best part of his build, is the combat training powers i gave him. Im not sure if its legal to assign a 0 rank power, but i figured it be okay as long as some points were assigned to power feats and extras. Either way Riddick just kicks ass. And comes to a woping 153 pts, even though he is only a Power level 8 character.

True, and i wanted to find ways of giving these vehicles a higher defense rating too. To simulate other things. Either way thanks for the nice words Your vehicle stats are awesome i have to say.

Yup, but i kept that list to just Western European Weaponry and armors for simplicity sake.
