Major Tom 2009 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine This is an awwwwwwesome find. If only it was in English! But that makes figuring it out more fun' date=' I suppose! [/quote'] One of the earlier versions of Fabrica does have an option that lets the user switch from Portugese to English (I think it's the one which immediately precedes FdH 2010, if I'm not mistaken). Unfortunately, for whatever reason, the creator chose not to include that option in either FdH 2010 or FdH 2011. Major Tom 2009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Tom 2009 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine Not long after the Crusaders made their first appearance as a team following the recruitment of Silver Saracen, they gained two new members from overseas. One of them was a British superheroine who was known as the Golden Gryphon, who wore a suit of mystical winged armor which bestowed superhuman abilities upon her, and the second was a costumed Frenchman who called himself the Musketeer, who wielded a pair of antique-looking pistols that could fire energy-bolts of some sort: [ATTACH=CONFIG]42106[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]42107[/ATTACH] EDIT: I'd forgotten to add the reason that Golden Gryphon and the Musketeer came to be members of the Crusaders. The OSS (Office of Strategic Services) had learned from intelligence sources in Occupied Europe that the German High Command was preparing to launch a mission of an as-yet unknown nature, and that they were send- ing a team of superhumans to carry it out. The OSS therefore requested the aid of both Golden Gryphon and the Musketeer in order to find out what the Germans were up to.

Major Tom 2009 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine While the OSS had learned of the planned Axis operation, what they weren't able to learn was who was being sent on it. As it turned out, the group that was sent on the mission -- which was to locate and free any important Axis prisoners from POW camps in the U.S. -- was the German team which would later become known to the Allies and their superheroes as Projekt: Sturmfront (also known as the Spezialkommando Deutches Reich to the German High Command). The team consisted of a number of individuals who had been given superhuman powers by an as-yet unknown process devised by the brilliant German scientist, Klaus von Wulfcragge, who also led the team in his identity of Blitzkrieger. As Blitzkrieger, von Wulfcragge possessed the power to generate and project incredibly powerful lightning-like bolts of energy from his hands at his foes. The other members of Projekt: Sturmfront are as follows: Walkure (Valkyrie): Klaus' wife Marelda was given low-level telepathic abilities as a result of the experimental process devised by her husband. While she couldn't con- trol the minds of others as more powerful telepaths are able to, she could still scan their minds for valuable information. Valkyrie could also use her powers to determine who in any group of people that opposed them in battle was the most inspirational member in that group; once she had that information and shared it with the rest of Projekt: Sturmfront, they would then focus their attacks on that person, with the aim of demoralizing his or her teammates by defeating that person. In addition to her telepathic powers, Walkure was also trained in the Japanese martial arts of Aikijutsu and Jujitsu, making her a formidable hand-to-hand combatant. Wolfsrudel (Wolfpack): Ehren von Wulfcragge, one of Klaus and Marelda's twin chil- dren, recieved an unusual set of powers from his father's experiment: not only was he given superhuman strength and the ability to survive underwater without the need for breathing apparatus, he also gained the bizzare power to create six identical duplicates of himself at will. His powers -- and the military training he already possessed -- have combined to make him a one-man WW2 version of a SEAL team. Because he can only duplicate himself and whatever he happens to be wearing at the time, any equipment of weapons needed by his other selves must be carried by him until he reaches his objective; once there, he duplicates himself and passes out the gear to them. Nebel (Mist): Elsa von Wulfcragge, the other twin child, was given the power to trans- form herself into a huge cloud of gas which she could manipulate to mimic the proper- ties of any gas with which she was familiar with (her knowledge of chemistry is very useful in that regard). She can literally become any type of gas whose chemical comp- osition is known to her, from very fast-acting knockout agents like halothane, to the ferociously corrosive uranium hexaflouride, which can dissolve most substances with the exception of nickel. The one gas that she absolutely refuses to transform herself into is Zyklon-B, the gas used in the Nazi death camps (her idea of being a German patriot doesn't include being a cold-blooded killer; an attitude that, surprisingly, is shared by the rest of Projekt: Sturmfront as well). Her role in the team is that of a scout, as her powers enable her to get into areas that normal people couldn't (narrow ventilation ducts, for instance). Like her mother, she has also been trained in the arts of Aikijutsu and Jujitsu. Kriegsadler (Eagle of War; better known as War Eagle): Heinrich Schrader, the faithful and longtime chauffeur and pilot for the von Wulfcragge family, gained super- human reflexes and an incredibly high tolerance for extreme G-forces. To enable his friend and servant to get the most out of his abilities, von Wulcragge designed and built an advanced (by 1940s standards) suit of battle armor. This armor not only provided protection from most small-arms fire, but also gave the wearer superhuman strength sufficient to allow him to shred steel with the claws built into the gauntlets. It was also equipped with a jet pack and a pair of adjustable wings, giving the wearer exceptional maneuverability in the air, while at the same time giving him a maximum flight speed that surpassed that of the fastest fighter craft possessed by the Luftwaffe at that time (only the Messerschimdt 262 jet fighters, which didn't appear until near the end of WW2, were faster). Von Wulfcragge also devised a pair of detachable "electro-bolt" projectors for the armor, which gave the wearer the ability to attack foes at a distance. Schatten (Shadow): Adriana Mauricio y Sabina Menendez, the Argentinian-born fiancee of Ehren von Wulfcragge, asked to become part of the Projekt: Sturmfront experiment, as she wanted to share in every part of her husband-to-be's life. Seeing no reason to deny her request -- especially after he discovered that she was indeed a suitable subject for the experiment -- Klaus von Wulfcragge agreed and accepted her as part of the team. In Adriana's case, the experimental process gave her the ability to not only create a huge area of absolute darkness (in which she alone can see), but also to transport herself from one location to another by stepping into a shadow of sufficient size. Whether she can take anyone else with her in this way is as yet unknown at this time. Schatten, like her female teammates, has also recieved martial-arts training; in her case, the stickfighting art of Escrima. When in the field, she carries a pair of fighting sticks with her; between her power to create darkness in which only she can see, and her skill as an escrimadora, she has become something of a very frightening opponent to those she faces. Donnerschlag (Thunderstrike): Erich Dengler, also a longtime friend and employee of the von Wulfcragge family, became the most physically powerful member of the team as a result of the experimental process. Possessed of physical strength sufficient to enable him to lift up to 100 tons, Donnerschlag is capable of bringing his hands together with tremendous force, which allows him to create a blast which is powerful enough to knock his opponents back several yards from where he stands (the sound created by this is, in large part, where he gets his codename from). He can also slam his fists into the ground to create a powerful shockwave, which can knock down anyone in the immediate vicinity. It is worth noting that, while Projekt: Sturmfront is a German superhero team (as far as the German public of WW2 is concerned, that is), they are not a Nazi superteam. This is reflected in their choice of symbol, which they all wear on the belt buckles of their uni- forms -- not the swastika of the Nazi party, but the eagle crest of the von Wulfcragge family. While they do consider themselves to be German patriots (with the accompany- ing belief in German superiority), they aren't cold-blooded murderers; indeed, they've consistently refrained from killing defeated Allied superheroes, even though certain mem- bers of the German High Command have hinted in no uncertain terms that it would be better if none of their enemies could come back to oppose them. The next posts will be of the pictures of Projekt: Sturmfront's members. Major Tom 2009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies to the German-speaking folks; my PC doesn't have the means to use foreign- language characters (I do know about the double-dots supposed to be above the letter 'u'), and when I tried to get the proper translation of War Eagle's name on one of the translat- ion websites, all it would give me was "Krieg Eagle". I will correct that small flaw in his name, however; thanks. Major Tom 2009 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
