Freedom Force in COX ?

[Mystik]

I was wondering if you guys ever did this

re-create the the ff characters and play as a team

I guess minute man would be a tank, el_diablo a blaster, eve a defender, what about the others?

[captainspud]

People have done the costumes. I had Alchemiss on my tank, and Mikey had Mentor on his defender. I think I did Microwave on my... Defender? Controller? Something.

[Figure Fan]

I would say:

Minuteman = Scrapper
Mentor = Controller
El Diablo = Blaster
Alchemiss = Controller
Manbot = Tank? Blaster? Hard to say.
Eve = Defender? Controller (w/ Plant Control)?
The Ant = Scrapper?

This would be a fun thing to try..

I can say it would be a lot harder to do before Ish 11/12.  I guess if you were going to do it, you'd do something like...

Minuteman: Probably one of the easier ones to do.  I'd probably go with something like WP/Mace Tank with Combat Jumping and Super Jump.  Put Leadership on him for extra authenticity.  Broadsword/WP scrapper would also work.

El Diablo: Also pretty easy.  Probably Fire/Fire Blaster.  With Flight, naturally.  I12 would give you the choice of making him a Fire/Thermal Controller, but it doesn't fit the character as well.  Fire/Fire Scrapper might also be an interesting choice.

Mentor: You could go a number of different ways with him.  Mind/Rad Controller, Ill/Rad Controller, Rad/Psi Defender.  I12 will give you the additional interesting option of making him an Energy/Mental Blaster.  I'd probably give him Medicine to round him out.

Microwave: Energy/Energy Blaster or Rad/Rad Defender.  With Teleport, natch.  Also combined with Concealment to mimic his Phasing powers.

Manbot:  Not so good here.  He's the epitome of the verboten Blaster-Tank.  As a Tank, he's pretty much either Invuln/Energy or Invuln/SS.  As a Blaster, he's hopelessly out of sync with the character even as Energy/Energy.  He'd need powers from Fighting, Fitness, Flight (optional) and Force Mastery to come close.

Eve:  Another tough one.  Plant/Trick Arrow Controller will probably come closest.  Pre I12, all you got is stuff that doesn't quite fit.  Trick Arrow/Archery fits her look but neglects all her nature-based powers.

Ant:  Another one who doesn't quite fit.  What do you do with this guy that doesn't ignore some of his signature powers?  I'm going to have to go with WP/SS Tank with Jumping on this one but I don't like it.  Concealment would give you an approximation of his tunneling abilities, but that's not great for a Tank.

Order: He's not too bad.  Tank.  WP or Invuln, and either Battle Axe, War Mace, or Stone Melee take your pick.

Law:  Totally undoable as what she ought to be... A Broadsword/Empathy Scrapper.  So, to get the look you're going to want to go with a Scrapper as either Broadsword or Katana and WP or Regen.  Give her Medicine and we'll have to call it good.

Alchemiss:  Can't really duplicate her, either.  Not exactly.  But I'd try it as Defender (Dark/Kin/Sonic/Storm/Cold Primary and Dark/Energy/Psychic/Ice Secondary) or Controller (Mind or Illusion Primary and Kin/Thermal/Sonic/Storm Secondary).  Probably go with a Defender, though.  (Dark/Energy, Dark/Ice, Storm/Dark, Cold/Dark, take your pick)

Blackbird:  Defender or Blaster.  Blaster choice probably Sonic/Energy.  Defender choices probably Sonic/Sonic, or Sonic/Energy.  Fighting, Fitness, and Flight would be good pools for her.

Tombstone:  Definitely Dark/Electric Defender, no question in my mind.  In I12, you might go with Electric/Mental but that's a stretch.  Throw in Teleport and you've got something that's not a bad approximation.

Iron Ox:  Invuln/SS Tank, natch.

Liberty Lad:  If there was a good hand-to-hand non-gimmicky combat set for Scrappers, I'd set him up as a Scrapper.  But there isn't.  If I had to, I'd go with MA/SS.  But I really think he'd be better as an AR/Devices Blaster.  I know, he doesn't use a gun, but most of the grenade-like effects are there.  Add in some powers from Presence, Jumping, and Fighting and he's... less horrible.

Man O' War:  Sadly, he doesn't translate well.  That Blast-Tank thing again, with shades of Def-Troller.  If I had to?  Dunno.  Ice/Electric or Electric/Ice Blaster.  Or Storm/Electric Defender.  Throw in Flight.

Sea Urchin:  FF/Sonic Defender.  I just couldn't resist the bubbles. :D  Flight for her, too.

The Bard:  Ugh.  Dunno.  Mind/Something Controller, maybe.  With Jumping.

Supercollider: Invuln/Energy, no doubt.  Actually, he'd probably work better as a Brute of some kind. 

Green Genie: Another hard one.  Kin/Electric Defender?  Illusion/Storm Controller?  Flight and Teleport, though, gotta have 'em both.

Black Jack: Oh, AR/Devices.

"The French Chick":  (Sorry, couldn't recall the name.)  Katana/SS Scrapper.

Sky King: Gonna have to go with AR/Energy Blaster.  'Cause, you know, that Blasttanker thing again.  Flight is non-optional.

Bullet: He'd be sweet as an Electric/SS Scrapper with Superspeed, wouldn't he?  But we'll have to wait for that one.  Meanwhile?  {sigh} WP/Energy Tank?  Dark/SS Scrapper?  Electric/Energy Blaster?  You tell me.

Quetzalcoatl:  Depends which way you want to go, but I'd say either Fire/Fire Tank/Scrapper or Fire/Thermal Controller.  Fire/Fire Tank or Fire/Empathy Controller are the only real options before I12 hits.

El Diablo is obviously a fire/fire Blaster with NO Accuracy enhancements...

LOL! I'd really like to try this now. I wonder if you'd be able to get away with duplicating their looks?

[Mystik]

running around virtue as el_diablo and minute man has caused me no grief

[Kommando]

Rolling an all human Peacebringer could probably work for Manbot (I was about to add Dr - doh).  Its kind of a less squishy version of a blapper, has built in flight.  You have a better chance at taking the alpha aggro than a scrapper (especially if you take quantum flight) and the melee attacks would look decent for Manbot.

I suggest humanform Peacebringer...though you could also throw in the squid/lobster forms with the sea concept....
