With Great Power...
 |
A superhero RPG specifically about the dramatic side of Silver Age comics¸ only incidentally about superpowers. The system is designed so that as you take losses you gain advantages against the GM's villains¸ so all stories involve getting beaten for the first two acts. Resolution uses a hand of playing cards rather than dice. There is a strong emphasis on story advice and examples of play for how to generate an interesting storyline. Character creation is done by filling in six Aspects¸ namely Origin¸ Powers¸ Convictions (i.e. deep-set beliefs)¸ Relationships¸ Identity (i.e. non-superhero secret identity)¸ and any Duties you might have to others. - A description from https://darkshire.net/jhkim/rpg/encyclopedia/ with kind permission of John H.

This playset is an accessory for the Fiasco role-playing game. There's nothing more chaotic than a superhero team. Take a bunch of A-Type personalities¸ give them all the power to punch holes in real- ity¸ then give them differing goals¸ beliefs and ideas. With that¸ you've got a bit of a fiasco on your hands... This is a Fiasco Playset. The Fiasco Roleplaying Game is required to play.
