remember the coalition always keeps some of the most useful mutant humans around, say ones who can negate super powers, got a few "we are unstoppable" with that one :lol:

Mega-Hero with :
Mega-Immortality
*Invulnerability
*Super-Energy Expulsion *whatever*
*Extraordinary Speed
*Extraordinary PE
*Flight *wingless*

Ok, now if this guy thinks the same way as the CS in general.
He might join the CS. If he can ;)
If they allowed him to join, he might raise through the Ranks fast though.
Then he can take over from within...being Immortal means they cannot kill him off.

Do Superheroes sense as supernatural beings to Dog Boys or Psi-Stalkers?

They can be sensed, but they seem different from supernatural creatures.

I don't think so... They are still affected by poison and tear gas and such, so a neural mace would probably affect them as well (1/2 effect).

Hmmm.

Imp to Poison/Gases
Disintegration
Intangibility

Multiple Selves

That guy alone, could systematically take apart ANYTHING you could POSSIBLY throw at him from the Coalition, barring some secretive magic users in their midst, and with a high enough P.E. that wouldn't really be an issue.

Given time, he would win.

Guerilla Warfare and all that, except with no losses on the Guerilla's side.


Or, do what a friend of mine did, get Telemechanic Possession, get to Robotechs dimension somehow, get the SDF-1, Possess it, kill the crew off, probably by dumping them into space, and then Rift it back, and nuke Chi-Town from orbit over a period of weeks.

Wow you guys sure are (un)imaginative, "Well gee, that didnt work how 'bout a whole new set of powers, hwuk-hwuk." :?

Just let it go, no ONE being could destroy the CS, there is always a counter measure. Plus youre forgeting (or ignoring) the fact that even some of the "enemies" of the CS would step in to stop this being.

secretive magic users like the Vanguard perhaps? an entire secret organization of mages loyal to the CS and humanity. An organization that Joey mk3 knows about and can contact?

And you can always roll a 1 on your saving throw.
Personally, I think that we have a duty as role-players to try to anchor each other to reality a bit. To keep other gamers from being complete freaks and weirdos, or even psychopaths, if we can. Killer Cyborg

Yeah, as long as we're inventing powers for the Hero's, why not give the CS a chance to technologically enhance themselves without any real logic?
