Quote from: Maltese Changeling;635468This works out beautifully in play: it forces you to mix things up, but it also allows for a very easy way of handling defense against multiple attacks. My primary beef with SUPERS! is the way Simon handled normals versus supers, but even that is a minor concern. It's a great game.

EDIT: BTW, that's a great little quickstart file. The game is definitely in good hands.

Quote from: TGIDragonfly;635738What, specifically, bothers you about the way that Simon handled normals vs. supers?  I'm one of the authors of the Revised Edition, so I'd be curious to hear your take.

Quote from: Maltese Changeling;636262Hmm. It's possible that I just had trouble with the way the "Normal" disadvantage intersected with the rules for non-powered heroes. I.e., if I don't have any powers but also don't take the "Normal" disad, am I limited to best 3 of X for my reaction rolls? The game never said. I was hoping for either a more thoroughgoing explanation of how one dealt with the "Normal" / "normal" issue or an elimination of the disad altogether.

Quote from: TGIDragonfly;636529Ah! Yes, I found this confusing too. The way it works in the current RAW is that all Aptitudes, whether you take the "Normal" Disad for your character or not, are capped at 3 of X.  This is meant to represent the fact that Aptitudes are mundane skills and, therefore, only capable of mundane results.
