Contents

Features

This system features:

  • 1 Actor type - Hero - and its Sheet
  • 4 Item types - Maneuver, Power, Situation, Skill - and their Sheets
  • Effect Roll, which displays Knockout and Core results
    • Effect Roll can be performed either by a button on Hero Sheet, or by using /effect X command (where X is number of d6s)

Content

This System contains no actual content. A game manual of either Champions Now as well as certain level of manual input is required to play the game.

Troubleshooting and Debug

If you want to have deeper understanding of why system behaves the way it does, you can enable Debug in system's setting.

This setting makes it so that the system will output a ton of information into the console whenever is performs or attempts to perform an action.

You can open the console by using F12 keybind on most browsers.

Tip: Use Champions Now as filter in console to only see this system's messages.

Recommended 3rd Party Modules

By default Foundry only offers 2 Attribute Bars on Tokens and system sets them as Endurance and Knockout. While you can freely change that, you are still limited to only 2 bars.

If you want to be able to display 3 Attribute Bars (Knockout, Endurance and Body), or maybe even more, you can achieve this by using Bar Brawl module.

To improve the immersion of the game I also highly recommend the Dice so Nice module.

Known issues

None at the moment.
