Hero Points: The Live Role-Playing Session

June 23, 2020

You asked for it! One of the Fire and Water Podcast Network’s Patreon stretch goals was for us to finally pull the trigger on a live (well, live-to-tape) DC Heroes role-playing session with Network hosts and guests taking the roles of superheroes they are associated with. A long time in the making (and even longer in the asking), GameMaster Siskoid sits across from the virtual gaming table from players Shagg, Chris Franklin, Bass and David Gallaher and runs the Bwa-ha-ha JLI introductory adventure from the 2nd edition boxed set, “Exposed”! But who’s playing who? For that, you have to listen!

Check out the image gallery for the character sheets and more!

Hero Points Character Profile: Batman

December 10, 2019

Siskoid sits down with KnightCast’s Chris Franklin to compare Batman’s DC Heroes RPG stats and his portrayal in the comics. A flagship character like that, surely Mayfair Games got it right! We ask an expert to make sure!

The Hero Points Podcast: Dream Machine

October 04, 2019

GameMasters Siskoid and David Gallaher discuss the 1986 DC Heroes adventure module Dream Machine, by Mark Acres, starring the one and only Joker. Can the New Teen Titans or Your Own Heroes defeat him and their worst nightmares? It’s an unusual adventure we think can be adapted for a variety of games. Check it out. (The Hero Points Podcast is in no way affiliated with the upcoming Joker movie, but we’re opportunists.)

Hero Points Character Profiles: The Power of Fishnets

September 03, 2019

Siskoid sits down with The Power of Fishnets’ Ryan Daly to compare Black Canary and Zatanna’s DC Heroes RPG stats and their portrayal in the comics. Two very different characters, except in terms of fashion. Did Mayfair Games get them right? We ask an expert!
