Converted from Phorums BB System


It was a good review, however...

You neglected to mention the +100, +1,000, and +1 million hit points, stat bonuses, etc. The wild variance of power in the rules kinda killed the game for me. That, plus I was never quite sure where players began to reach power levels approaching Superman, so I gave up.

I tried resurrecting it under a DC Heroes (1st Edition) conversion, but somehow it still didn't fly. I originally worked up the conversion as a convenient way to keep the zeroes from flowing off the character sheet.

I now have it combined with a sort of freeform Rifts/Risus game, and ready to run, if that tells you anything.

I tried playing it, as written, only once. I'm not sure I want to scratch my head that much ever again. Other than actual numbers issues, the adventure itself ran fairly smoothly...
