I often find some inspiration among the Blue Moon line of 28mm figures. There's a metric ton of them out there, and most have been sculpted by Bob Naismith, the chap who has done the lion share of our SuperFig line. This time I found a gem in the British Spies Pulp pack.
The figure I picked, and my paint job on her, is below:
I think I'll call her Nemesis and make a her a blaster (energy projector) in the play-test games. One of the things I like so much about this figure is that Bob was not afraid to give her some very real proportions, so she's got an ample backside, which is something you don't often see in 28mm female miniatures (usually its the front that's a bit over-large). Anyway, she's got loads of character and she'll make a great team-member for Star Krong.

Have you ever tried a Super System Covert Ops game? Something like Black Widow, Nick Fury or even the Punisher. Not really super heros, but not exactly normal either.
ReplyDeleteLow-level supers? Never actually set out to do that. Might be a cool way to play the game.

I've been thinking about it. I have yet to actually play a game, but I have to get a few teams flushed out to get the friends involved. This is years in the making.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, when I started making teams I had a bunch that I wanted to do like Hydra, SHIELD, a type of BPRD with Vampire Slayers. But I recalled seeing somewhere that the game worked best with the stats around 83 points I believe. I also wanted them to be able to grow through campaigns so I wanted them to start low. DO you think that would work?
Yes, I think it would. Standard builds are 85 pts. but you can play fun, low-powered games with 60 pts. or so.
