Too over the top?

Unread post by RiftJunkie »

Neo-Human CyberKnight.
What are your thoughts. I find it a powerfull character, but I don't think it's munchkin. Am I crazy?
My apologies up front if my posts come across as argumentative or crass. It is not a personal attack on anyone, just my blunt style. I bear no ill will towards anybody that plays Palladium Games (there’s not enough of us to hold a grudge).

Munchkin has more to do the the player than the character.

As long as the character's power level is appropriate to the campaign, I wouldn't worry about it.

I don't care about canon answers. I'm interested in good, well-reasoned answers and, perhaps, a short discussion of how that answer is supported or contradicted by canon.

If I don't provide a book and page number, then don't assume that I'm describing canon. I'll tell you if I'm describing canon.

If your in a party of other chars with dragon hatchling and dimiegod level powers no its fine. If your with a "normal" cyberknight and say other occ's from the main book that are all sdc then yeah its over the top.

I suppose a good way to look at it is this.
1. Are you the toughest pc in the party?
2. If so can all the other pc's combined take you out? (Im assuming your not in some massive game with 12 pc's or what not)
3. Will the gm have to make enemies able to one shot the rest of the pc's to challange you?
4. Are you in SA?
5. Why not just be a neo human with psi sword? That adheres to the cyber knight code?
