Sense-affecting powers

[Dr.Device]

Darkness and Flash are both written so that you can not squeeze extra points out by buying them vs. a non-targetting sense then adding a targetting sense as an extra.

Images, Invisibility, and Shape Shift[1], on the other hand, don't specifically rule this out. As written, one could buy Shape Shift vs. the Sight Group for 10 points, then add the Hearing group for an additional 3 points, making it cost 13 points to Shape Shift to Sight and Hearing. Or, one could buy Shape Shift vs. the Hearing Group for 5 points, then add the Sight group for an additional 5 points, making it cost 10 points for what acts as exactly the same power. A similar example would work for either Images or Invisibility.

Is this, in fact, legal?

Thanks for all the answers.

[1] Not officially a sense-affecting power, but close enough.

Of course not. See the Rules FAQ under "Sense-Affecting Powers." The same rationale applies to Shape Shift.
