Cloverfield
Just went 2 see cloverfield last night, and all I can say is SWEEEET. It's kind of got an H.P. Lovecraft Version of Godzilla meets Blair Witch Project feel 2 it. Any Idea if there's any way 2 put that idea to ATB? I'd sooo love to do something that smacks of it for my game.
Any suggestions are welcome.

SL 25 is pretty tiny, compared to your standard 12 storey tall monster.
HU2 uses the growth power, which may be useful, but I would strongly suggest just making up numbers to fit your campaign ( I made a SL 25 sentient octopus with blood drinking and body armour. the players took it down in 2 rounds)

Imagine a TMNT campaign with yourself as a mutant animal trying to survive a Cloverfield-style incident...panicked, hysterical, fearful humans all over, gun-slinging authorities, your favorite hideouts being stomped or collapsed , or else getting invaded by desperate refugees,, and icky little THINGS making it all the more likely that anything that isn't identfied immediately as human is going to get shot....
Of course, if you're a GIANT mutant, you'll be contending with the authorities shooting at YOU while you try to deal with this obnoxious out-of-towner who's ruining your vacation spot or messing up YOUR hometown....

And the Turning of a Page"

Re: Cloverfield
I just saw the movie a couple of days ago and it was pretty good. But I don't think it should be compared to the monster movies of Godzilla and such. This monster seemed impervious to everything that was getting thrown at it, and it's insinuated that it's just been born. It's way to powerful to be compared to the likes of Godzilla. It destroyed most of NYC in less than what, 7 hours? Once it starts maturing, if it can sustain itself; it should pretty much be a cataclysmic event. I wonder if those parasites it has breed? Or if we're left to think that they incubate in humans?
The video retrieval makes me wonder how much longer after NYC took place that the movie is taking place. I would have liked to have seen even a glimpse (kind of like in Terminator) where the world is at when the video is being viewed, not when it was made.
