Excel spreadsheets sound like a very useful tool :). Now I shall go and look at your part 2.<br /><br /><a href="http://tashasthinkings.blogspot.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">Tasha's Thinkings</a>Tasha Duncan-Drakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12591239019422681163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-4003033609078865402013-06-06T14:52:31.044-05:002013-06-06T14:52:31.044-05:00Hi Tim!

Just once- we constructed characters and played through a super-short campaign in one weekend. My character had Rogue-like abilities based on proximity rather than touch, ended up inadvertently sucking up a bunch of different people's powers and taking out a large boat containing a very large explosive device. I can't entirely remember how, but I think my character went mad at the end of it... Still, super fun, though!Bevimushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14924337684790883853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-50665385571779182522013-06-06T13:39:22.499-05:002013-06-06T13:39:22.499-05:00I've been playing it intermittently for about ...I've been playing it intermittently for about 30 years now. For most genres I prefer a lot of detail and realism (I use GURPS for most things), but V&V seems a much better fit for the superhero genre. Characters are more resilient and combat less lethal (a superhero battle in GURPS looks less like <i>The Avengers</i> and more like <i>Saving Private Ryan</i>).<br /><br />We use a variety of our own house rules, but I also highly recommend the fan-produced materials found here: http://paratime.ca/v_and_v/campaigns/hq/ -- lots of good variant powers and handy templates.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-270036252760043672013-06-06T12:35:55.396-05:002013-06-06T12:35:55.396-05:00Wow, I've never played but I get the concept o...Wow, I've never played but I get the concept of D&D so this pretty cool!
