GOLDEN HEROES
Golden Heroes is a superhero role-playing game that was originally written and published on an amateur basis in 1982. Games Workshop then published a more complete version in 1984. It was written by myself and Peter Haines.
The character generation system involves players rolling a some random powers and then designing the rest of their characters. A character can only keep his full set of powers if he can justify them all in a plausible origins story. The system really strives to recreate comics, with the actions occurring in "frames" and a lot of classic comics assumptions being written into the rules.
The rights to the name Golden Heroes rest with Games Workshop.
