Marvel Superheroes Role Playing Game (RPG) - Nostalgia Knowledge - Marvel FASERIP

[@WhatIsOntheComicRack]

Marvel Super Heroes RolePlaying game is the greatest superhero roleplaying game ever. Simple design and easy rule system always makes the best gaming system.

[@muigokublack6487]

Personally I find the new Marvel Multiverse RPG to be simple to learn. I love making characters in it.

[@WhatIsOntheComicRack]

@@muigokublack6487 I have not looked at the system but may need to check it out. In my 40 years of playing roleplaying games the original Marvel Super Heroes RolePlaying game was the simplest and easiest to learn system that I encountered.

[@phillee427]

I began my Venture into role-playing back in 1987 with the Marvel superhero Advanced set. To this very day it is my very favorite superhero RPG bar none. FASERIP Is the only game in town for me when it comes to superhero. It had a few kinks in the rules but those awesome folks over at Classic Marvel forever iron out a lot of those making it much more understandable and with supplements like the ultimate Powers book and the Marvel Universe character books you can fashion any kind of super being that you wanted to bar none

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

I have never seen another system that scales power levels up so well...its great!

[@LegendX808-u6d]

My dad introduced this game to my siblings and I when we got old enough to understand the game. It's fun! I love using my imagination to create new superheros in the Marvel universe. Glad my dad introduced this game to us.

[@TheoBlack777]

I played Marvel Superheroes from 1989 to 2008. I just wish I could play it now

[@robertbishop2176]

My friends and I spent SO many hours developing our own teams of superheroes under this system. Great fun and awesome memories. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

Glad you enjoyed it! Its still my fav Superhero RPG

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

Thanks for joining us!!!

Great overview. I loved this game as a kid, and I recently created a private game in Roll20 for my friends. The provided character sheet works well.

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

Roll 20 makes dor fun gaming if u are far apart....did a shadowrun game a few years ago that ran like 9 months.

[@willd.8040]

This takes me back. We'd play this in middle school. We'd get to school about an hour early and play, during lunch, and on weekends at my house or another friend's. I loved it. I never got into D&D, but I LOVED Marvel. The dice were awesome. I kinda wish I could get back into it now. All you need is your imagination.

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

Classic!! And yea played in middle school here too!!

[@stevencorrez7042]

I loved this game as a kid, it was easy to play and very fun! Thanks also for the heads-up on the website, I have found it and use it to download so many of the source material stuff.

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

its is a lot of fun..i thought of gathering some other YT people nad playing maybe on skype, then have narrator tell the story with people voicing their characters and sound effects like old radio shows...

[@stevencorrez7042]

It sounds like a great idea!

[@CaptainFrost32]

@@ComicBookNostalgia There were several comic book creators and talent that did Twitch livestream of Marvel games as a charity fundraiser for Friendly local Comic Shops closed by COVID. They played various Avengers [Vision, USAgent, Moon Knight, Rage, Hellcat, The Thing, Wasp [Russian daughter of Pym]]. Viewers could unlock features for the players through donations to the charity: unlocking reserved character [like Iron Man], unlocking Power Stunts, upgrading results for character FEATS.

[@tommyd2235]

This was an awesome system. I’ve even adapted it to sci-fi and fantasy. And assigned power ranking to skills and talents. Hulk wins. Hulk always wins. Used to have a four map slugfest throwing everyone at him.

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

LOL...i love this game too and the system. Its unique and workable and yea does translate to other games types. I am also a bit of a fan of the d6 system old star wars used as well as shadowruns

[@tommyd2235]

Comic Book Nostalgia I still have some of those West End books around somewhere.

[@CJ-lx2uu]

Tbh I'm in my 40s and I still have my charcter lol my friends and i played this all the time. We all have your charcters and talk about the fun of it. Big fan

[@tbb4023]

The Reed Richards Guide to everything was not a new edition of Marvel Superheroes it was a new game using an entirely different rules set with a radically different set of mechanics. I do not recall Jeff grub designing that one at all.

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

Yep, its as part of the SAGA follow up...when making it the 'source' was wrong and i put bad info in there....sorry!!

[@eblisongrun]

You're right. And it was a great game. Not using dice at all, but cards. There were a whole bunch of books but the game didn't last very long.

[@kennethsolo4919]

It says SAGA System on the cover. SAGA was an entirely different game, same licensed characters.

[@davidransom4703]

thats why captain america had an unearthly fighting skill it really was understandable and i loved it they used things like in the comic books

[@eblisongrun]

I played the game from 1988 to 1996. We moved on to other things such as Vampire and the two following incarnations of Marvel. This month, we are moving back to Marvel with the same people I played that original game with. We might even be picking up our old characters but giving them a 25 year update.

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

Just saw this, that is awesome dude... picking back up same game all this time later is epic

[@davidransom4703]

i say class 1000 to this day for something that's awesome like a iron maiden album or feats of excellence from a person they had the feats down from feeble to class 1000 and above

[@78Bigtank]

I used to play this game with the comic book cards and the books it was fun I wish they would remake it again and it would be a little cheaper but it's very expensive on eBay I think games need to go back to the basics or if they make a system game make it more like this incredible game

[@ConundrumProductions]

Excellent video. Thank you!!

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

You are welcome! Thanks for being here and commenting. I think this is the first comment i have seen from you (i try to remember) so thank you!

i still play

[@KaijudoMaster11]

With this system could you have a skirmish battle between characters?

[@ComicBookNostalgia]

Yep..you could even play our Avengers vs Xmen is u wanted too

[@KaijudoMaster11]

@@ComicBookNostalgia You created a skirmish game called Avengers vs X Men or you just saying I can do that if I wanted to?

[@Jayce_Alexander]

@@KaijudoMaster11 It's a full tabletop RPG, just like D&D. So yes you can run large battles between Marvel characters with this system.

[@KaijudoMaster11]

@@Jayce_Alexander Question about combat. Lets say I have Hulk vs Vision. Hulk picks up bolder and throws it at vision, the roll is a success, does that mean Vision takes damage (Hulk's Strength vs Vision's Agility) or do I have to make an agility roll to see if Vision escapes. I know I can make the combat play out how ever I want, but I'd like to know how the official combat rules play out.

[@maverickgames9551]

@@KaijudoMaster11 If vision did not make a dodge action then the boulder hits. Interesting note however. Damage is not done based on hulks strength for the hit. It is based on the material strength of the boulder ( probably Incredible 40) . In this case Hulk actually does less damage when throwing objects that he would just straight up hitting with his fists. The exception to the rule is if the material strength of the object being wielded is higher than a players actual Strength stat ( in hulks case it would have to be a rock made out of Uru!) then the damage done is equal to the wielding characters strength score +1CS on the universal table.
