Ah you are referring to AE Architect "Something with E" I just remember everyone calling it "AE" I did play with that system and it was fun I would have liked to have done a lot more content wise on the idea I had made but it was fairly simple strange mad man making mutants that tried to take over atlas city. You fight them and seek to stop them and find the master and fight him too.

AE architect, yes, I think that's what it was called, been so long... I frequently used it to create custom story arcs for people to play through. I didn't care much for the whole farming and powerleveling scene. I always seemed to reach my max though in the amount of stories you could have published and ready to play at one time. Overall, AE was definitely a cool feature, it was just a shame it got abused the way it did.

Yeah I was more in for the excitement and I know they were getting abused hard but once they tweaked it a bit so it was not as easy to power level in AE the action died down a bit in that aspect. The creativity was pretty cool in some of the stuff published there though.

I will get my post in for both sides Tuesday morning. Sorry for the delay guys, had a busy week and couldn't concentrate on the campaign. Will need another day to get back into the Rebirth of Power mood.

My internet is turned off until at least next week and I can only do stuff at the library or at work. So my posting rate is going to take a dive.

Hey guys, can I get a quick a show of hands as to how many of you are still interested in continuing this game and seeing it to the end of its first part?

By knowing how many will still be actively participating, or at least kind-of-sort-of participating, it will help me prioritize what needs to be done on my end.

Also... if everyone was fine with it, I could just wrap up the game right now, give a believable ending based off of your character's actions thus far and what you probably would have done. This would push the game to an early completion and allow everyone to create a more customized hero in the Gurps system and not have to deal with something randomized from the 4C format. I would also leave it to you all whether you want to pick up from the events after Rebirth of Power or start a new 'super' campaign.

With all of the above, be sure to leave me your thoughts on any or perhaps none of it. Thanks.

I'm still in. In the current thread, I've been figuring SCAMP's best contribution is as communication center.

Alright, thanks for the input guys. It helps knowing I have more than half of my group still with me on this. I will get some update posts rolled out tomorrow morning. Been juggling a lot of things around in the background lately, so my time on this forum has been reduced at the moment.

When we make the change to GURPS, I could even have a story-related explanation for any power changes that might result: It's SCAMP 2.0, the new model! ;)

Hey guys, I think this is a bit overdue, but here it is: I would like to wrap things up in this game in a few posts and put it under complete status. Both the hero side and villain side have had many chapters completed and are pretty much at good stopping points, to be picked up later in a new game system perhaps.

Before I do this though, to any remaining players who are still with me on this, I would like to ask permission first. You have a say in this as much as I do, and if you wanted to take care of any loose ends or have some questions answered to tie those ends up, we can do that.
