Mmm...Humanis Policlub Member, who just happens to be a Physical Adept
Sniper with a Barrett Model 121 and a fetish for having the heads of
as many metahumans as he can possibly get on his wall. Fomori are
rare, but they're also big game.

Forgive me for being naive here, but I don't think even the most
munchkinny character in the world can see a sniper from 1,000km off.
Just a cruel suggestion, but not a particularly effective (or fair)
one.

I sorta pride myself on cheap (but ultimately primitive) tricks...too
bad I keep on giving those tricks to my GM.

BTW, on that church? I would've put in a biometric maglock connected
to a canister of say...nerve gas. Do the code wrong, alarm and gas
goes off. Blow it up, gas and alarm goes off.

Pit trap full of monomolecular wire.

Foci addiction.

Dragonslayer is disappointed with the actions of his shaman (putting
the life of an innocent at risk, and a child at that!), and takes away
his bonus dice...or his spells.

The full-scale destruction of a church is sure to bring in Lone Star.
The big guns. With mages.

Fixer with a hair-trigger temper and lots of bodyguards.

Kill the other PCs as a result of his actions. Sure, it's mean, but
then the PC's will want a word with the munchkin.

Nuclear power plant.

The military.

Must've. Cause at 1 Megameter you've got this problem of the planet being
round and all...

Course there is the idea of some AAA corp putting a person on it's top 1 to
terminate list and using a 'tech-you'll never see' laser rifle from a sniper
sitting in a vac suit in orbit waiting for a clear sky in front of your
apartment...

Oh, I don't know. Can you hit someone from that far away with a Thor
shot?
