Hero Game System is my preferred gaming system. The game system allows the game master and players maximum flexibility in building anything imaginable. The system is genre-neutral. It is a point buy system, depending on the kind of campaign and genre that will be played will determine how many points players have for creating their characters.
For instance, it is possible to build the following types of campaigns:
- Champions is a superhero genre game. If you want to play in a Golden or Silver Age comic book setting, then Champions is your game. The only limit on creating a superhero by a player is the initial number of points they spend on their character and imagination. As a game master, creating a superhero campaign that matches your favorite comic series or publisher is possible.
- Fantasy Hero is for people who want to play fantasy-type games. If you are tired of Venancian-style magic, this is the game system for you. Defining any magic system you can imagine for your players is possible. Numerous Hero supplements describe spells that can be incorporated into any magic system. I created a different type of magic system in my fantasy campaign world.
