Hey Arcady,

Yup, looks like we are. It's an overreaction to the 2nd-3rd edition days, where you were obliged to buy practically every new HERO game/supplement, 'cuz you never know if some propellerhead gamer in your group would decide to use something out of, say, Star Hero because it's cheaper/more efrective that way.

No joke, I had a player in the 4-color Champions campaign I was involved in that made a Dr. Strange type using one of the rewrites of the Fantasy Hero Magic System. Due to the cost difference in the two games at the time, he was WAY overpowered at the get, with a lot of front-loaded spells and such. What a pain.
