INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION Sentai Heroes is a turn based combat game for two or more players set in a world where a team of high tech heroes is the earth's only chance of stopping an alien invasion.

Sentai Heroes gives players complete control over the creation of their team. Players can create an existing team from popular media or one from their own imagination. The possibilities are endless.

The object of the game is to stop the opposing player's team from succeeding in their plans.

Sentai Heroes is a standalone game that can also be used as an expansion for any other Toy Battle SystemTM game.

Unfortunately for him by the time he had succeeded in creating a weapon capable of fighting the Jin his health had begun to fail.

Unable to use the weapons he created Anki had no choice but to entrust a group of young Earth warriors with the alien technology in the hopes that they could do what he was no longer able to.

Thus the Sentai Heroes were created, a group of young warriors hidden behind the protective secrecy of alien battle suits and armed with alien weapons. They are the Earth's only hope of ever bringing an end to the terror of the Jin.

The first thing you must decide for your team is what member types it will contain.

The different archetypes are used to determine the team members' starting statistics as well granting each individual member a special ability.

4. STATISTICS

Once you have picked your team members' archetypes you need to buy their statistics. Some statistics are not bought. These are discussed further in Chapter 2: Statistics

5. ABILITIES AND POWERS

Now buy special abilities and powers for your individual team members. Abilities and powers are the unique skills granted to a team member from his gear.

6. DETAILS

This step is not required but it does help enhance the atmosphere of the game if you give your team a name and a history. How did they get their abilities? Is their gear from an alien source or a magical source? The details are for you to decide.

CHAPTER ONE:

TEAM MEMBERS

ASSEMBLING

A TEAM

In order to create a great team of heroes the team must have a well balanced selection of members that complement each other.

When you are building your team you must first determine how many members it will contain. All teams must have between 3 and 7 team members. Each player gets to choose how many members their team will contain within that range.

Once you have chosen how many members your team will contain you must assign each member an archetype. When assigning archetypes no team member may be given the same archetype as another team member

ARCHETYPES

Below is a list of the different archetypes that can be chosen for the members of your team. All archetypes are laid out as follows.

Name: This is the common name for that archetype. It can be changed to fit the concept of your team.

Initiative Bonus: When rolling for initiative some team members add a bonus to the die roll.

Common Color: It is common for each team member to wear an outfit of a different color. This is where you will find the color that is commonly used by that archetype.

Description: This is where you will find a brief description about the role that archetype plays in the team.

Special Ability: Every archetype has a special ability. This is where it will be detailed.

Starting Statistics: When you include an archetype in your team the team member that has that archtype starts the game with the statistic ratings listed in the starting column of his archetype's statistics table. These statistics may be altered with creation points.

Maximum Statistics: When raising a team member's statistics they cannot be raised above the rating listed in his archetype's max column.

ALPHA

The alpha is the leader of the team. It is his responsibility to keep the team working together as a whole and to know the strengths and weaknesses of his teammates.
