Well, if JoH doesn't mind me trudging along, I wouldn't mind trying it out with his match.

Are villains assigned to fight the heroes, or do we just find a match that needs someone?

Usually you just pick one and play, but if no one gets any takers sometimes we'll assign them. Usually it's better if people just pick their own though.

The villian squads are selected by the editors for normal matchs. For training matches however, players can make up their own villian teams.

I am open to the idea of it, but it hasn't really been done before (unless you count the Suicide Squad). But there are still tonnes of hero teams that one can do thesedays with all the figures available:

I've already had people show an interest in the following teams: Avengers, F4, Guardians of the Galaxy and SHIELD (awesome!), but other great Marvel teams I can think of off the top of my head are:

Alpha Flight, Champions, Heroes for Hire, Marvel Knights, X-force, X-factor, New Mutants, Generation X, Infinity Watch, Squadron Supreme and Thunderbolts. I'm sure that there are others, and I'm also sure that Shear could come up with a similar list for the DC side.

It's worth noting that we don't allow 'substitute dials' in this league. The character can only be the name it says on the dial.

Oh, the Invaders too!

And the Young Avengers!

Where do I find out what hero games, if any, need a villian?

We'll post them here when it's time. It will probably about a week or two, since the current games are just finishing up.

Alright, cool. Should be exciting!

Welcome to all the new interested players, and THANK YOU, Wakanda, for going to the effort of getting the new thread up and running.

Still a lot of work to be done. Hoping to get some, if not all, of the updated rules up tonight.

Well, I've edited the index for the rules in so far. RPSC veterans, can you see anything missing? As you can see I've taken DM's way of doing it and streamlined it a little by putting things into catergories. Hopefully that will make it easier to find a particular rule when looking for it.

And now Part 1 is complete. That should give the rookies something to chew on.

all of a sudden, i'm glad about the trial time - it'll probably take me 3 months to figure out how to keep a decent Avengers line-up at 300pt

Added some more rules. I fiddled with the Regen roll - it seemed silly to me that the Regenners had an equal chance of healing up between issues regardless of how many clicks they had taken at the end of the issue. So I made it a standard Regen roll to heal back the clicks (so if they're knocked 4 clicks down, they'd need to roll a 6 to heal). But if they're only knocked just onto KO, it's a 3-6 needed.

I think we talked about removing the 'activation click characters are wounded past their activation click' rule, but not sure if we actually decided on it.

Nice new thread, WM. I'm going to have to train my eye not to just scan for the big 'RPSC' at the front, though That'll learn me to get lazy about my forum reading.
