whats a good beginner-friendly super hero system that has an

Mutants and Masterminds is generally acknowledged as one of the better superhero systems. I've heard it needs the GM and players to communicate pretty well though.

>>47985918
It does because unless if the GM says no, you can do pretty much anything with it.

>>47985922
Yeah. You should at least run ideas by your GM. It's simple as "Hey, you don't plan on time travel being a thing here, do you?"

"Nah, Craig."

"Alright, I guess I'll go with my other idea, how about a villain who can mind control anyone wearing a fursuit or-"

"No."

It's always the Craigs, man.

OP, I hear good stuff about Wild Talents.

Well if you're trying to introduce your D&D crowd to superhero, Mutants and Masterminds will greet them with semi-familiar action round structure and d20+modifiers rolls.

You could run them through quickstart character generation from Gamemaster Kit to make characters on the spot and drop them down into introductory heroics very very fast.

The way GM kit works is that you pick (or roll d20 for if you want a surprise) one of 20 archetyps which includes thing like
>powerhouse, your regular tough guy
>paragon, a flying brick a-la superman
>wizard with all the wizardy stuff
>caped crimefighter a-la batman
>animalistic super
>battlesuit a-la iron man
>kung-fuist or weapon master
>energy-type controller
then go down options for thematic ability and advantage packages, picking specific power options and subtypes within your broad archetype (i.e. is your weaponmaster a swordsman or bowman) and so on.

There's also two books of statblocks for DC universe characters, portion of which are statted at standard starting level.

Marvel Heroic Roleplaying is extremely simple, versatile, and fun. Unfortunately, the book does a terrible job explaining the system. Here's my handout that I gave to players, really helped.

And here's the paper I kept with me to remember the stuff I have to do. Those two papers, plus what's written on the character sheet, contain literally everything you need to run the game.

I just realized that the 'moves' section there is stolen from Apocalypse World, and only really there to spark ideas at the table. It's not actually a rule in the game.

Speaking of *World games, there's a pretty good one for superheroing around called Worlds in Peril.

>>47985893
Mutants & Masterminds 3E. You can build any character you can think of, and just about all of them will fit neatly on a sheet of wide-ruled paper with room to spare.

You won't believe me, but D&D 5e
Or FantasyCraft

>>47990369
I don't want to be a dick but 5e is not really good for superhero games and FantasyCraft I do not know enough to decide, but considering it's sort of a fixed 3rd edition, I'm pretty sure it's more complicated.

>>47985893
Gonna throw out a recommendation for Strike!

oh thanks these will be useful
