Obviously, for me.

I'm here.

Hey, everyone... Long time, no see. I read what's going on in the iron mine, looks like the group is investigating the office building. Everyone else already got in past the gate/wall, should I assume I'm in there as well? Then again, I'm a Mentalist, so I can just participate using Mind Scan to target my Powers.
Also, is it fair to assume that I've Mind Linked with my teammates already?

It is fair to assume you're mind linked, and that you've entered the mine itself. The only personnel that were on site, apparently, were Mr. McClain and the roving security guards outside the gate. Oddly, after the mine shut down for the day, Mr. McClain went into the processing building and set up what could only be seen as a ritual. Large humans (about 7' tall) are inside carrying large containers of iron ore into a glowing pyramidal portal.

The only one you don't have a Link with is Nighthawk, and the Link with Darryl has disappeared suddenly.

Well, Nighthawk is just an alternate form Darryl assumes, right? Unless Darryl's mind (not the physical material, but the consciousness itself) changes pretty significantly, the Mind Link should stay in force; at least, that's my understanding, the GM is, of course, the ultimate arbiter of that.

In reply to The Great Karnac (msg # 905):
Even if we are mind linked what is the point of group radio?

Drifter has shown a preference for that medium rather than using a relay
A to B to C then back to B to A

 Just go from A to everybody

In reply to Truesilver (msg # 907):

Ah, but it does change significantly.

When Darryl switches forms, the Mind Link is severed and must be re-established.

Oh, okay. Fair enough. I assumed it was only/primarily a physical transformation, but that is good to know. I think I can assume the answer, but for the sake of thoroughness: does Nighthawk have a Human Class of Mind?

What is meant by 'Human class'? He isn't completely alien to human values, but he doesn't have a completely animal mind either.

It's a Mental classification in the system side of the HERO Core book or books. Human, Animal, Alien, Machine - things like that. It matters to them, but normally the rest of us don't give a crap. Some villains, like Mechanon, expressly count as both Machine and Human due to the fact that he's a neural intelligence expressly mapped after the human brain.

Stuntman is "Human" for purposes of psychics, if it matters. His psychic defenses aren't any better or worse than anyone else's, but his psychic output is curiously and ridiculously weak.

Technically, NightHawk possesses a human class mind. However, the two forms have disparate personalities and are therefore different minds. So the link must be re-established (if desired).

What's the distance to McClain?

Too far away to reach before he steps into the pyramid. You do notice that nothing appears to exist inside the pyramid, and as McClain steps in the part of him within the pyramid vanishes completely.

I meant attack Range for range mods.

McClain was on his way into the pyramid when NightHawk appeared, there won't be time to attack.

I don't have a problem with teh mindlink

Basically, the critical question is this: where are we, and where are our targets relative to us?

Stuntman, superhero games do not use Hit Location unless specifically allowed by GameMaster.

It's a technique, like a Martial Art Move. In this case, a ranged throw, fluffed as Shoot In Leg.

Killing attacks are d3, or ×3 Stun Multiplier in this game? Can't remember.

The Custom Hand-Cannons have a +2 STUN Multiplier, so whatever that is, mine are meant to floor people. I always went off "Base x2," although if I am told to go with the usual crazy formula, I'll do it.

I miss "x3 STUN," admittedly, but I know why the change was made.

The same amount is added to the stun multiplier from the hit locations table, when used. The hit locations table will be used in the event of "placed shots", but this means it will be used for the STUN multiplier (which will not need to be rolled) and the BODY multiplier, and the OCV penalty. "Placed shots" will be stock attacks (unaffected by martial maneuvers) but can have combat levels applied.

As an example, if The Stuntman had chosen a "placed shot" to the head of one of these brutes, his OCV would be reduced by eight. If his shot landed and did six BODY, the stun multiplier would come from the table (X5) before being increased by the levels of increased STUN multiplier on the attack (+2). The STUN would be calculated BEFORE the defenses are applied. In this case the brute would receive forty-two stun less defenses.
The resistant defenses would reduce the amount of BODY before the multiplier is applied, if the brutes had any. In this case, the six BODY would get through the defenses and be multiplied by the BODY multiplier for that hit location.

I'm surprised Placed Shots are even a thing. Makes headshots potent if they connect.
