<div>There are RPG podcasts that feature recordings of gaming sessions (D&amp;D &amp; CoC), but I'm looking more for something with news, tips, and stuff like that. <br/> <br/>Does anyone know of a Hero Games podcast out there?</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 7 replies </div>

<div>I loved the sidekick rule book out last year. I believe a slighty more deluxe version of this should have been the intitial Hero system book as it would be more affordable for those who are exploring new systems (as opposed to investing $50 for a game that they aren't even sure they will like). It was great. I bought several as Xmas presents. <br/>Is it still available?</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>Hero Games has been in the RPG industry since it first released Champions: The Superpowered Roleplaying Game in the early 80's. Since then the rules have been through many editions, with Hero System 5th Edition being published in April of 2002 and a revised edition being released in December of 2004. <br/> <br/>Although the RPG industry is dominated mostly by WotC (Dungeons and Dragons) and Collectible Card Games (Magic, etc...), Hero Games continues to put out quality gaming books and manages to maintain its business. There is definite room for growth, and in order to make that happen Hero gamers need to get out to their local game store or convention and teach people about the game. Not only does this increase our sales but in also increases the number of Hero gamers out there... and that's always a good thing. <br/> <br/>I work for Hero Games primarily as the webmaster but I also handle retail order fulfilment, customer support as well as other office and writing duties. I love this company and love my coworkers who are all really good people. As a team we put out the best products possible so that gamers from all over can enjoy playing the Hero System. <br/> <br/>For more information, please check out our website: www.herogames.com </div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 8 replies </div>

<div>I finally got to run Pulp Hero like I've been wanting to do, with three friends here in Buffalo. <br/> <br/>I had to make the plot up as I went along, throwing as many Pulp elements in as I could think of... so there was an airship, some nazis, and one PC is a werewolf (it's a VPH 250-pt campaign).</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 1 reply </div>

<div>My sister stopped by the Hero booth at GenCon on Saturday and picked me up my very own copy of Pulp Hero in hardcover. I would've loved to have had it signed by Steve, but I guess he was in a game or something at the time. <br/> <br/>I decided to do the opposite of what I usually do with these books, which is normally to just flip around, look at artwork, look at maps, look at weapons and equipment charts, and whatever, and instead start right from the intro and just read straight through. <br/> <br/>So far, I'm enchanted. I'm enthralled. I want to run this game so badly it hurts. I will get to eventually, I'm sure. Right now I've just started a rip-roaring Terran Empires SH campaign that's well won the hearts and minds of its three hearty players, and I will heed Abraham Lincoln's advice not to switch horses midstream. <br/> <br/>But seriously, Steve Long, if you're reading this, you really broke the mold with this work. College courses could be taught on the pulp genre using Pulp Hero as the textbook. Bravo. I can't wait to see the supplements to this sourcebook as they arrive.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 3 replies </div>

<div>Yesterday my copies of Spacer's Toolkit &amp; Terran Empire arrived from comicsnow.com... and I'm reading them voraciously in preparation for running a campaign set in TE universe. <br/> <br/>So far I'm quite excited about what I'm reading...

<div>I'm on vacation and I stopped into a gaming store outside of Charlotte, NC, and picked up the brand-new Hero System 5th Edition Revised, along with Star Hero, and I'm hoping to start a new sci-fi campaign when I get back, most likely set in a universe based on the cult TV series Firefly. <br/> <br/>I've been taking peeks at the books during my hotel room downtime, and it's interesting seeing how some of the rules have been updated. <br/> <br/>It's been well over ten years since I last ran a Hero campaign, but as I read through the rules it's starting to come back to me.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 5 replies </div>

<div>I started playing the Hero Games system back in the early 1980s when a friend of mine let me borrow his 1st edition Champions rule book. <br/> <br/>At the time, I thought that the system was revolutionary... using points to create characters rather than die rolls seemed so wonderfully balanced and democratic. One character would not be, by pure luck, more capable than another in every aspect, the way it often was with other systems. <br/> <br/>Since that time I've run a lot of campaigns in the system, from Fantasy Hero to Robin Hood, and Danger Int'l, Justice, Inc., Robot Warriors, and, of course, Champions. I combined them, occasionally, too. I allowed my Danger, Int'l characters to learn spells and use magic items written up with the Fantasy Hero rules, and they loved it... it was a present-day techno-fantasy-kung-fu campaign, and it was a blast. <br/> <br/>Oh, geez, look at me, getting all sentimental and nostalgic. I would kill for enough time in the week to get back into that stuff again.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>The Ultimate Mystic (DOJHERO108) ships this week and should arrive at your FLGS within the first week of the new year. This book was written by Dean Shomshak, the same writer who brought us The Mystic World (a supplement for Champions) and Arcane Adversaries (a villains book for Champions). It discusses how to run mystic based campaigns regardless of your chosen genre. A MUST HAVE for any Hero System gamemaster.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://herogames.tribe.net">Hero Games</a> - 0 replies </div>
