OSR Commentary On (MLBA1) Mutating Mutants Module By Bruce Nesmith Advanced Marvel Super Heroes Rpg

A mutant role playing game from Marvel Comics. "Being a mutant is tough. Being a New Mutant is even tougher. I think I'll pay those kids a friendly visit. Y'Know. I may be Wolverine, but I don't have many friends who aren't out to use me. These kids haven't gotten hard-bitten and cynical like this old warrior. Yep, time for a drop-in..." "Somebody is after these kids. Trying to hurt them and hurt 'em bad. Somebody just made a big mistake and I intend to see that they find out just how big. Somebody's gonna pay for what they've done to the kids..." Wolverine watches as the New Mutants slither, crawl, and hop toward their goal. He knows they'll never be the same again. What's worse he also knows He'll never be the same again"

 Bruce Nesmith's (MLBA1) Mutating Mutants Module is a solid 1990 module that hits the high mark for the Marvel Super Heroes Advanced Rpg. This book delves right into the deep end of the Marvel's 'mutant menace' issue. We dived into this module in about 1991  & I've resurrected it after our recent brush with Nightmares of Future Past. 
We recently had to go after someone who was targetting Wolverine who was targetting the New Mutants! One thingthat this module brings to the table top is a plethora of Xmen & mutant themes centered around 'The New Mutant'. 

  (MLBA1) Mutating Mutants Module By  Bruce Nesmith fits right into the Marvel Super Heroes Advanced Rpg according  to the September 3, 2007; "A really quite good module for the mutant types, with Sebastian Shaw and his plotting at the heart of it."
"It is well detailed, and thought out, with some definitely useful instruction at various points for the Judge, even some karma award guides." Because Sabastian Shaw is at the heart of this module we combined this module with Days of Future Past's Sentinels. This means there's a mutant enemies link up with the Days of Future Past modules allowing Mutating Mutants to be an alternative timeline. 

(MLBA1) Mutating Mutants Module By  Bruce Nesmith is a solid module and tightly written. It's a great module to run for three reasons. The module is great to run, and it works very well as an adventure to get the player's PC involved in the deep end of the mutant issue. There are some strong encounters in 
(MLBA1) Mutating Mutants Module & it still works at the table top level.
