Crowdfunding NOW on Kickstarter!
Our initial “vs.” Match-Up was inspired, of course, by Sean Izaakse’s gorgeous wrap-around cover for Mutants & Masterminds, fourth edition, with a confident Captain Thunder facing off against a rampaging Tom Cypress, the swamp giant sometime ally of the sorceress Medea and regular muscle of the Crime League.
A significant part of superhero action is, of course, fights, so this Match-Up kicks things off with a look at the essential M&M mechanics and Swamp Slugfest! a knock-down, drag-out pitting Cap against ol’ Tom on his home turf, the South River Swamp. You can get a look at attacks, damage (and damage resistance), and the guidelines for Grabs, a useful option for these super-strong types.
You can also see Captain Thunder and Tom Cypress’s character stats laid out with a focus on what they can do during the Match-Up. Their skills and some other traits that don’t directly come up in this Match-Up are included for completeness and because they may just be relevant to the additional guidelines given in our later Match-Ups! For now, have it, heroes!
