M&M 3rd ed. Threat Report Question

EdtheDM · April 26th, 2011, 03:21 AM

I am using the latest M&M Threat Report in HeroLab, Cerberus Rex.

Rex has the summon minions power (Robosaurs) and can pick up to 4 80 point minions. The two basic minion templates of choice are robotic pterodactyls and robotic raptors.

If I want to chose to have Rex bring in 4 raptors, how do I duplicate the minion raptor three additional times in HeroLab? Is that even possible?

AFAIK, it's not directly possible. Myself, I've handled such situations by building the minion once and then just noting the number, since Minions go down with the worst value of any save. The occasional times I've needed heroic minions (generally for duplicators), I just add multiple copies via the Portfolio menu.

I appreciate the answer. This minion is incorporated into the master portfolio of Ceberus Rex so I guess I can't copy it directly.

If you don't mind inputting it once, you can then Duggan's solution from that point on.

But as he says, with non-Heroic minions there's actually fairly little (though not no) point in having multiple entries.
