Just a quick note to let y'all know we've added three more powers to the Online USPD -- Boulder Riding, Controllable Chain Lightning, and Nice Try, Little Man. Enjoy!

Very nicely done on the nice try, little man.

On a side note is it just me or does the size alteration page also include the electrical based powers.

I'm already using one of the new powers for a new character for a game tomorrow. Excellent.

Yes, it was. That was my error. It has since been fixed.

Excellent additions. My only problem with the USPDB is that it still includes variations of powers where the dice went up or down.

Wow. Talk about nit-picky. And I thought I was bad :D

Speaking of nit-picks, there is a typo in the Nice Try Little Man power (PD twice instead of PD & ED):

Game Information: +15 PD (15 Active Points); Only Applies Versus Attackers At Least One Size "Class" Smaller (-1/4) (total cost: 12 points) plus +15 PD (15 Active Points); Only Applies Versus Attackers At Least One Size "Class" Smaller (-1/4) (total cost: 12 points). Total cost: 24 points.

Okay, I give...where is this beastie located? If it's in the playtest section, it isn't showing up for me when I log in...and if it isn't, then where the heck is it?

Thanks for your answer!

Steve-- would it be possible to modify the online database page so that updated categories and new powers get a "New!" icon placed by them during updates? That way, if you don't want to list out every new power (though so far you're not getting too many) a viewer can at least glance through and see where to look for themselves?

The new powers already have a "date posted" to indicate whether they're new, but I'll see about getting Ben to put an "Updated" or "New" tag beside appropriate categories.

Okay, I've come up with a way to indicate new entries have been added to the OUSPD...

Next to each category I've included a number in parenthesis to indicate how many entries are in that category. If the number is red, that indicates that a new entry has been added as of the last update date listed at the top of the page.

I hope that helps.

It's a little like the soldier who, when ordered to jump, doesn't even bother asking how high -- he just jumps as high as he can, and then asks if it's high enough.

Different type of situation, but same attitude. :cool:

In case you didn't see it, it was metioned earlier that there is a typo in the power "Nice Try Little Man".

The power reads +15PD & +15PD instead of +15PD & +15 ED.

Just thought I'd mention it.

Ben much better layout for the 'home page'. The two columns increases the usability tenfold.
