Yamo, I was actually at RPGnet first and read your reveiw before coming here. Nice job.

Nice review. I caught a few grammar/spelling errors, but nothing earth-shattering, and you did an excellent job describing things for people unfamiliar with the HERO System or the Champions Universe. :D

Funny thing, though.... My page 217 says "UNTIL Superpowers Database," not "Terran Empire." :confused:

I think he meant page 271. :)

Actually the only glaring error I've caught in the book is that Hypersenses isn't in the TOC.... :D

Actually, if you view this "Terran Empire" reference in light of the sidebar on p. 52 of "Champions", it might not even BE a mistake!

under the heading "How to Destroy [or conquer] the World":
"buy a small game company and then parley it into a world-dominating economic entity"

...go HERO!
