Gotham City: Shadow of the Bat

Question for the villains:

Is there a system in place if a crime lord wants to "float" a contract to the various rogues?

I don't recall ever hearing specifics, but you'd have to think someone or some thing has to be in place for such an ocassion, right? Maybe Cobblepot?

Unfortunately the "pink" (or violent in this particular game) is taken. All ranger spots are taken, except for the 6th ranger (not far enough into the game to introduce one, but we have 2 players that hope to become 6th ranger once the time has come).

@ProPro

See, I only ever watched the original. I was thinking OCing the original American TV team, but almost doing a Nolanverse approach to it: make it as weighted in the real world as possible. Who knows if anyone else would've even been interested in such a approach, though.

My computer died, working on a replacement.

Still available, and Jinny can still get ahold of me a number of ways.

Patience appreciated. ^_^

You can join mine! The position of Big Bad has just opened back up! :D

@ProPro

Pink Ranger or bust for this chick. ^_^

...I must keep missing those. D: I'll always have a soft spot for the X-Men, since the 90's cartoon was one of the two things that got me into superheroes in the first place. XD ...The other being Power Rangers but I digress. Mind you, I am weird and always want to do my own spin on the Clone Saga whenever I think of doing Marvel stuff (kind of spurred on by the fact that pretty much every version of it other than the original was actually pretty good; especially the Ultimate version) but no-one ever seems to want to do Spidey as an established hero so it never works out. XD

...Anyways um... Sorry I haven't been posting. Been feeling kind of sick lately, and to be honest it's not something I mention much but I'm kind of sick a lot (not going into any more detail than that) which is kind of a damper on enthusiasm and stuff since I start to worry too much that I've not posted for a while and I'll get yelled at or something because of it but anyways. But I still really like how this is set up and Dblade said he'd help me with posts so hopefully sometime soon-ish maybe I'll get something done. Sorry about that though. ^^;

@Rin

You didn't miss anything. I haven't GMed a comic game for a long time, now. Pre-Guildfall, I think.

I also wanted to GM a Power Rangers game. lol

Feel better! I don't yell at people, I just send them PMs and ask what's going on. lol So don't worry about me.

Villains are off limits now even for secondary characters? @Ruby Can I have permission to flesh out the Jester character leading the Jokerz if nobody has any plans for him?

And @Rin the 90's X-Men cartoon is what made those mutants so popular with fans back then. Cool theme music, best voice ever for Wolverine, the Phoenix/Dark Phoenix Sagas, etc... it was all amazing. And for the record I LOVED the Clone Saga back then too with Spiderman and the introduction of Ben Rielly and Kane. When it ended the way it did and Marvel turned their back on the new fans they'd gained in favor of bringing back a status quo along with Norman Osborn let alone killing the 'perfect clone' in a way it was said he'd never die... I just gave up on Marvel for the better part of two decades. I've got the Madrox mini series, the retold Clone Saga mini they did for how it was *supposed* to end [with Ben still alive and on the road again as Scarlet Spider], and the Hickman run of Fantastic 4 that lead in Future Foundation which I also got the most of.

I thought about GM'ing another game, originally the idea was a Batman Inc. type game but I opted for this. The other idea was something with the X-Men...

~KL~

@The Kid Lantern

Yup, even with secondary characters for right now.

Gotham City: Shadow of the Bat

So, has anyone used Jason Todd for anything?

Edit: I checked, all right, y'all already determined Jason's Robin. Nevermind then.

@Hillan

Jason was once a Robin, yeah, long before he became Red Hood.

If secondary characters happen

@The Kid Lantern

Are happening. I opened them up yesterday. ^_^

Villains are the main reason I'm even in this fandom. I tend to like the Batfamily best out of DC's heroes, but that's still with backseating them to all the bad guys. XD I, personally, find them a lot more interesting.

On Marvel's side, I better like more of the heroes (particularly X-Men, and especially Nightcrawler, omg. <3).

But that seems to more or less be the consensus for both companies anyway. DC makes great villains, and Marvel makes better heroes.

@LePouvantail

Almost every Marvel game I do is an X-Men game. Go figure. (Childhood, anyone?)

And I'm not cutting off the villains for good. Just for now. Until the game starts to balance itself out, which I figure it will about around the first month mark.

But my answer to too many villains is, "The more villains, the more powerful the vigilante heroes." Which isn't a hard approach given this setting and it's vigilantes.

Gotham City: Shadow of the Bat

People say BvS sucked, but I just can't agree. I got comic book Batman, a dead Robin, I got Wonder Woman, Parademons, Apokolips apocalypse on Earth, and Flash doing time fuckery.

I've never seen a movie feel more like a DC comic--the last chapter of the movie sucked, but I'm really not gonna bitch that much. Plus I get a Joker played by Ledger's best friend (and an Oscar winning amazing actor besides), a Harley played by an actress who just keeps impressing me, oh and the Oscar winning director who did one of my favorite movies is directing the Bat movie he's starring in and is talking about throwing a bunch of rogues in because it's Batman later in his career, and why the fuck not?

It all makes me smile.
