Hello, I am GMing a SUPERS short campaign for my six wonderful players who love to come up with the most “optimized” powers they can get (including digging the internet for ideas)...
So, I wanted to challenge them, but with something else beyond creating equivalent NPCs to fight them (we are playing M&M 3e, they started at Power Level 6 and will be levelling up to 10)
Therefore, I am hoping to get ideas to design situations that would require them to be smart and creative in using their powers to solve/fix them.
I know I can always use some sort of “nullifying powers” effect or even come up with a super powerful NPC, but I would really like to minimize those options, because frequently they make the players feel they are being cheated...
Am I trying to hard and putting myself into a corner? Or are there indeed clever dilemmas to get them challenged while playing their character’s best game?
