Re: Taliesin's builds: Spider-Man 3E!
Taliesin, how do you get the format like that, like it is in the book, with the dots and everything? Like this:
Spider-Movement: Leaping 2; Movement 2 (Wall-Crawling 2); Speed 1 (4 MPH) • 7 points
The rest of it I can understand, but what do you have to do to get those dots at the end?

I'll never tell!

Just kidding. Hold Alt+0149.
And you can indent using the list function.

Hm, okay, I can try it. There are two different list functions, so let's see.
- Testing.
- Also, I can't get the Alt+0149 to produce anything.
Also, before I forget... great Spider-Man build!

Re: Taliesin's builds: Spider-Man 3E!
•Works for me.
Hold down Alt the whole time you type 0149, then let go of Alt.
Also List without list=, just plain list works.

Can't get it to work. If I hold them all and then let go of Alt, it just repeats 9 or 0, generally. If I hold Alt and hit them in order, and then let go of Alt, same thing happens. Odd.
I might be forced to use the stupid asterisk.

But still, I like the build, and thanks for the info.

Nice Spider-Man build. I like it.
You could just copy/paste the thing.

Umm, he should have mentioned, you have to use the numbers on the numeric keypad, not the ones above all the letters on your keyboard.

Hmmm, a few other ideas: Make sure your keyboard configuration is set to the Standard US keayboard.

Testing on a Standard UK Keyboard layout;

There are numbers above my keyboard letters? Well, what do you know!

So, when can we expect the 'Totally Terrific Taliesin Third-edition Thread?'
(Patiently waiting, of course)

I want to see Nightcrawler...I am very curious as to how to build him.

Re: Taliesin's builds: Spider-Man 3E!
I actually have had no clue as to whether a 3E board is in the works, so I'm a little hesitant to start a new thread. But it would make indexing easier, huh?
In the meantime, enjoy Spidey. I think I need to get things sorted out and probably start a new thread.

I think he could be extrapolated from Taliesin's 2e build quite easily. Since 3e has no automatic Extended Teleport, the base level of Teleport is Nightcrawler's usual version. Everything else could be converted over near-exactly.

Looking forward to it, and I love the Spidey build, very nice synergy between his abilities (although I might have given him Enhanced Traits - including most of his Fighting - to show the power loss bit, but I can see why you didn't).

After looking at how the boards are structured, I'm inclined to say that there will not be a 3e Roll Call board. If past trends hold true, then the Official Rules and Rules boards (labeled "Second Edition") will be brought down to where the 1e boards are located (with the possible deletion of the latter, depending on moderator decisions). Everything else will probably just see 2e gradually phase out as people post more 3e material.
Makes the most sense, otherwise GR may anger those in the different boards who are trying to finish up 2e discussions/games.
Food for thought.
