[ffutures]

A repeat offer of Palladium's superhero RPG:

https://bundleofholding.com/presents/Heroes2022

This revived February 2018 Heroes Unlimited Bundle once again presents Heroes Unlimited, Kevin Siembieda's RPG of superheroic action from Palladium Books. For more than 30 years Heroes Unlimited has let you create any type of comic-book hero you can imagine, and the comprehensive 1998 Second Edition, along with its companion Aliens series, expands to galactic scale. It's called "Unlimited" for a reason.

We provide each title complete in .PDF. Like all Bundle of Holding titles, these ebooks have NO DRM (Digital Restrictions Management), and our customers are entitled to move them freely among all their devices. (By publisher request, the DriveThruRPG versions of these files are inobtrusively watermarked.)

Ten percent of each purchase (after gateway fees) goes to this Heroes Unlimited revival's designated charity, National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. NCMEC provides services, resources, and technical assistance to child victims of abduction and sexual exploitation, their families, and the professionals who serve them.

The total retail value of the titles in this revived offer is US$122. Customers who pay just US$14.95 get all five titles in this revival's Starter Collection (retail value $56.50) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete Heroes Unlimited 2E rulebook, along with the first volume in the Powers Unlimited™ series, Villains Unlimited™ 2E, the city sourcebook Century Station™, and Mutant Underground.™

Those who pay more than the threshold (average) price, which is set at $27.95 to start, also get this revival's entire Bonus Collection with seven more titles worth an additional $60.50, including the Game Master's Guide, Gramercy Island (a supervillain prison), Aliens Unlimited™ Revised and its companion Galaxy Guide, and the adventure/sourcebook Armageddon Unlimited.™

Last time I said "OK, I might as well be honest, I'm not a big fan of this system - it's a fairly early attempt at a generic superhero game and in my opinion others have done it better, most notably the Champions system and GURPS Supers. Having said that, it's reasonably good value for money, and covers most of the key mechanics and ideas needed for most superhero genres. I personally prefer other systems, and at the moment don't want to run any superhero game anyway, but opinions differ." The "early" in this bears repeating - the game is more than 30 years old, this offer is for the 1998 edition, which is now 24 years old, and it's an unfortunate fact that the older the rules system, the clunkier it tends to be. There are more modern and more easily played superhero RPGs out there, and unless you're feeling nostalgic this may not be the best choice.
