Super Awesome Action Heroes
is a Tabletop RPG designed to emulate action movies. It is both awesome and sweet.
This game provides examples of:
- Action Hero: The whole point.
- Bamboo Technology: Well, not necessarily bamboo, but the Scientist can build pretty much anything with just some unrelated spare parts.
- Big Bad: The Main Villain, who gets a +1 to every single roll.
- Bottomless Magazines: If you say your character grabs an extra clip, suddenly you have unlimited ammo.
- Class and Level System: There are a number of typical action movie Archetypes to choose from, each with their own perks. You level up when you start a new "movie."
- Everything Is Online: If the Haxor can access a computer, it can find out anything at all you need to know.
- Fantasy Character Classes: An expansion allows you to use your Sweet Moves against orcs!
- The Hero: The Primary Character PC who likewise gets a +1 bonus to every roll.
- I Know Mortal Kombat: The Haxor class gets a bonus to their Guns stat thanks to all those FPS games they play.
- Mook: Any NPC who's not the Big Bad or his team is labeled as "Fodder."
- Paper-Thin Disguise: The main gimmick of the Spy archetype.
- Rule of Cool: The Sweet Move mechanic. You can do pretty much anything if you describe it awesomely enough.
