Food of the Gods: 1955 (Mark II)

  1. The Republic of Turkey (Strong preference)
  2. West Germany
  3. Japan
Gonna be right on the frontlines of the cold war if this works out, either a regional power that both sides court or literally a partitioned state. Should be interesting.

1. Iran (Very strong preference)
2. Denmark
3. France

Iran is a cool country and I am a half-Iranian, so I have the advantage of knowing stuff about it. I currently live in Denmark, so I have that advantage as well there. Either way, I will be deeply embroiled in the Cold War from the sidelines as a buffer state against the Soviet Union, torn between the blocks

and some madman gave me super heroes

If I get my 1st request, I already have my superhero named and themed out lol. Still need to make sure I can do it within the rules later but I think it should fly.

Love this whole theory.

Man, I think I've got my notes for the first game somewhere...good Canadian times.

So it's looking like all three of these are contested - are there any other nations you might be interested in?

1. Argentina (strong preference)
2. France
3. Japan
Argentina is yours at a Tier 3.

@inquisition What about East germany? You left it off the claim list so far.
The unclaimed nations on the list are just suggestions honestly - as long as a nation exists, it can be claimed.

  1. The Republic of Turkey
  2. West Germany
  3. Japan

Hey, @inquisition can I use my old Hero Zmaj?

Yep - you'll just have to update him for the new system.
 
South Africa
Austria
Finland

And also dammit I missed returning as the USSR!

@inquisition is it cool if I just use the example hero you made and maybe edit the lore a bit. going into the pdfs you linked seems like a very daunting task. Would be nice if there was a spark notes version or even just a list with powers and point costs.

South Africa, a T3, is yours.

That's fine. And that's reasonable, I can do a power list with the cost, of course, though it wouldn't give a full accounting of what the powers can do.

The 26th of July Movement.
It's yours - T4.
 
How does Ambrosia gain work? Don't think I saw anything about that in the PP—do we get a steady stream based on our tier or is it by making accomplishments?

Oh, oops, I forgot to write that into the OP. AP is gained at a steady annual rate of:
  • 3 for Tier 4
  • 4 for Tier 3
  • 5 for Tier 1 and 2
In addition, accomplishments will net you AP based on the nature of the accomplishment. Capturing and "killing" a hero, on the other hand, gives you 1/3 their AP back, rounded down.
 
Hmm. So one thing I'm curious about is if there are any modifications that might want to be added here to make these super-heroes relevant on an international scale? Because the Savage Worlds rules for these things seem to assume a very personal scale of adventure, so you get stuff like "spend two points to have the ability to control a single animal within one mile" which is kinda... underwhelming? Especially since there's no actual way to extend the effective ranges of a lot of powers which makes them extremely limited for a gsrp.
