15mm Superhero Gaming - The Legacy Character Sheet

The Legacy is a superhero aligned with S.H.I.E.L.D.  He often joins The Repulsers for missions where addition tactical support and firepower is required.  He excels at military tactics and strategy, and is often consulted before a mission to determine the best plan of attack.  He wears an early Iron Man prototype armor from Stark Industries.  His Mark 1.5 armor features only rudimentary weapons systems and can only sustain low-altitude flight for short periods of time.  Despite these limitations, his armor combined with his tactical expertise makes The Legacy a powerful ally.

15mm Superhero Gaming - Desert Rescue Session Report

Recently I ran a small 15mm Superhero gaming session for my daughter and nephew.  It had been more than a few months since our last session - Rise of the Dead and I was excited to use my Flames of War desert scenery.  Below are the details for this new adventure....

Desert Rescue

In the heart of the desert, Hydra agents have hidden away the captured Taffy Man deep in an underground bunker.  Nick Fury has selected two superheroes that will lead a clandestine rescue mission:  America Girl - leader of The Repulsers superhero team, and Plasma Man - its newest member.

Superheroes:
*America Girl
*Plasma Man (and Minions)

Avengers (NPCs):
*The Vision

Villians:
*Catoblepas
*Hydra Henchmen

Result:
The small team parachuted into the compound, avoiding being seen until the last minute.  They then descended into the secret facility by elevator.  Plasma Man summoned one Minion, and the team split up to find their extraction target.  They found some keys and hacked in the main computer before freeing Taffy Man from his cell.  Catoblepas attempted to block escape, but the team had found an auxiliary service elevator, and Taffy Man held off Catoblepas and the Hydra henchmen while the rescue team hacked the controls.  Now back on the surface, the team used the stolen keys to steal a Hydra vehicle.  Needing support, The Vision made an appearance to provide covering fire during the escape to freedom.

15mm Superhero Gaming - Taffy Man Character Sheet

The story of Leroy Taff is a cautionary tale.  Once a simple confectioner, Leroy lead a solitary life making candy.  But his attempt to bring life to his candy creations had dramatic effects that would forever alter his destiny.

One afternoon, after leaving his shop, Leroy saved an old Roma women from being hit by an out of control car.  For saving her life, she offered Leroy one wish.  Leroy explained that he wished he could bring "joie de vivre" to his taffy making craft.  The Roma woman nodded and provide Leroy a charm with specific instructions for completing a magic spell to fulfill his wish.

Due to an unfortunate translation error, instead of bringing the joy of life to Leroy's taffy, the attributes of taffy were bestowed upon the closest living thing - him.  Leroy found that he had gained extraordinary powers - the attributes of taffy itself.  Leroy found that he could contort and stretch his body into any shape.  From that day forward, Leroy was Taffy Man.

Below is... Taffy Man, an original character:

15mm Superhero Gaming - Guardians of the Galaxy Character Sheets

I use modified Flames of War rules for my 15mm Superhero gaming sessions.  I used some simple prototypes, but have recently created more detailed character sheets that track health and energy, as well as list of out actions and special rules for each character.  I constructed the sheets in Excel, exported them to Photoshop for some detailing, then digitally printed them as 5x7 photos at Costco (for $.57 each).  I think they turned out well and look forward to using them in future gaming sessions.

Below are the Guardians of the Galaxy:

15mm Superhero Gaming - Rise of the Dead Session Report

Last year at Halloween I GMed my first 15mm Superhero gaming session for my family.  We used the Flames of War rules, modified for Superhero adventures and also used my Flames of War scenery.  Below are the details from that session.  I posted this on DakkaDakka a few months back, but wanted to add in a few more details and some better pictures....

Rise of the Dead

Herr Kürbiskopf has completed his dark ritual in an abandoned church near a small village, raising soldiers from the dead to be his minions.  Nick Fury has quickly assembled a small team of new superheroes to confront Herr Kürbiskopf and his undead horde.  The mission: to protect the villagers, stop the zombies, and defeat Herr Kürbiskopf.  

Superheroes:
*Ice Princess (and Snowflake, the Ice Golem)
*Captain America
*America Girl
*Black Widow

Galactic A-Holes (NPCs):
*Groot
*Rocket Raccoon
*Drax

Villians:
*Herr Kürbiskopf
*Zombies (many, many Zombies) 

Result:
Victory!  The superhero team needed to call in some US Army (NPC) reinforcements, but the village was saved from the zombie horde and Herr Kürbiskopf was defeated!  Along the way, some Galactic A-Holes joined the fight....








Victory!
At 15mm, I can quickly create new adversaries and superheroes as needed, so I'll be holding similar gaming sessions in the near future.  I also created some character sheets for use in the game - I'll post them shortly.
