I’m Thinking Of Running MASKS.... But?

Vyrrk

I can't remember exactly... but I would swear Jason or Jib ran a Masks game in the MCU on Happyjacks at one point.

The_Gekko_State

Vyrrk Ooooooo I will have to dig through the episodes then! Thank you. I just started the one that Jib ran in March 2017.

JDGriz

Vyrrk JiB did one for Avengers West Coast in Cortex Prime.

He also did straight up Masks for ... thirteen episodes, I think?

And your initial reaction may be irritation or perhaps even outright disgust by the end of character creation in that. Don't worry, you won't be alone in that. But it gets better, I promise.

The_Gekko_State

Azhrei_Vep I think I’ve started that one. I’ve been enjoying the character creation episode. Let’s me see the rules in play some what. But that’s just me hahaha.

JDGriz

That wasn't MCU... Wasn't that the Mr. Clean, zero, boom boom and derby girl run?

The_Gekko_State

JDGriz correct, it looks like you’re right cortex was MCU. If I found it right.

JDGriz

Hey my random nonsense that are only useful in niche communities is maxed out.

Jason did do a one-shot Masks game in the MCU. I believe it was a One Shot Saturday game. I was in it along with Mason and Kimi. Can’t remember who the 4th was.

But yes, it works fine... as teens in the MCU. If you want to play adults in MCU, I’d suggest Cortex Prime.

Azhrei_Vep

Yeah, the Teens part is non-negotiable.

It's also the game I'll likely use next time I decide to put RWBY on the table for players to choose, with some limitations placed on playbook selection.

So I was talking with some of the potential players last night. As I finally got to game with them again. And they want to use Mutants and Masterminds... I'm not surprised. They like it and are invested in. Heck I am too. I've bought every book for the third edition. So Thank you all for the help. I will keep you all updated on how it goes in the other thread I have going.

The_Gekko_State As long as you are invested in it, both players and GM, I wish you all the enjoyment with it.

The_Gekko_State

EricfromNJ Thank you! I think it'll work out. I plan to be invested in it. So this nudge into choosing a system was good. I'll keep MASKS in the back pocket 😉

hoobuk

The_Gekko_State you could do your M&M game and then play a one-shot of Masks at some point with the same characters in a “What If They Were Teenagers?!!” game. Could be a fun diversion and a way to introduce them to the system.

JDGriz

Favorite thing about M&M now is the fact they just have stat bonuses now... Just a +5 not a 20 to determine if you have a +5.

The_Gekko_State

JDGriz Yes that is pretty great. I have just started going through my copy of the Basic Hero's Handbook. To reacquaint myself with the game. Forgot some of the cool ways they did things in the latest edition.

EricfromNJ

Yeah it was like that in the DC version of the game I used to have.

The_Gekko_State

hoobuk ooooooo I like that idea! Or if if I may base an idea off that. They’ve in turn inspired some teenagers like the “Young Avengers”. Or something like that.... hmmm I’ll have too keep this in mind/ back pocket thank you!
