So....

Did GenCon come and go with no announcement whatsoever as to the status of the City of Heroes pen and paper RPG?

I haven't heard anything, but I have to say I'm not particularly interested in a tabletop version of the game

The preview stuff looked like it had been jammed on top of Unisystem in rather a clunky fashion and I've got a suspicion that stuff that's balanced in the computer game will be ludicrously overpowered in tabletop.  I predict that two of these things will be Haste and most of the Kinetics powerset

Edit: and if you're interested in CoX, why not join our villian group ;)

Sorry, I don't see myself returning to CoX MMORPG anytime soon.  But I do appreciate the invite.

Is there anyway to move form the European servers to the US ones?

Unfortunately not (http://uk.support.plaync.com/cgi-bin/nceurope_eng.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=3166&p_created=1129930618&p_sid=CVrVnqTh&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9MjIyJnBfcHJvZHM9NTUmcF9jYXRzPTAmcF9wdj0xLjU1OzIudTAmcF9jdj0mcF9wYWdlPTE*&p_li=&p_topview=1)

If enough people petition it then they might produce a mechanism, but I'd have thought they'd want to keep the load on the US servers as low as possible
