[LFG] Cortex Plus Dramatic/Heroic Sunday Afternoons CST

I'd be looking for sometime after 2pm Central Standard Time (Chicago Time) on Sundays for an ongoing group. Ever want to play a game like the Marvel comics movie universe with your own characters? A game where you get to have a large, ensemble hero movie and then individual film which focus on specific heroes and their supporting cast of heroes and villains? After Character Creation, this game will begin with a game of Marvel Heroic Roleplaying (Cortex+ Heroic), where all the heroes are brought together in defense of the city. Street Level/X-Men power level heroes, the first game will be a game of mighty heroics and tense action. Then, as we enter into the other games, it's going to change a bit. The next few sessions will each by a 'movie' for the various heroes. We'll also be creating characters with Smallville (Cortex+ Dramatic), which creates a web of character relationships and a bunch of NPCs and locations. Each Hero will have a spotlight session where the other players will take over the NPCs (both friendly and villains) which will allow for depth of character and dramatic situations where sometimes being able to hit something doesn't help. Then, after each hero has a spotlight episode, we will end up with another ensemble film. If you like TV shows like Arrow, that will be a bit of the feel of the individual 'movies'. There will be action but the focus will be on relationships, character, and emotional/social conflicts.

I was asked about starting at 4:30 CST which is UTC -6.
I've had 3 people express interest With 2-3 more, we'll have a game.
What an awesome concept!
Is that interest? I'd love to get this game going, but it really needs 5-6 players to make it work and it is, by its nature, long term. We tried it last summer but it turned into a (very cool) Smallville game because we wouldn't have time to develop everyone else during my Summer Break.
