creating a diamentional gate

[Beast]

is there a prerequisite to get area effect 1 hex on teleport or extra-dimensional movement?

like on page111 in FREd in the side bar

or did I finally find something
this is using HD 2.0.27

I was trying to do this on a base template

Yes, you must purchase EDM with "Usable On Others". This makes it a "targeted Power" and allows Area of Effect to be applied.

This is not part of the Power construction on page 111, but that is (IMO) a mistake which should be noted in the errata. The errata does say that there are several improperly done Modifier in the Powers on the sidebars of that page range.

Under Teleporation, when talking about gates in the sidebar of page 149, it backs this up:
<blockquote>To create a Gate, a character must buy Teleportation with the Advantages <i>Area Of Effect (One Hex), Usable On Others, </i>and<i> Continuous</i>.</blockquote>

Update: no longer just my opinion: Steve just got back to me and said that it was an oversight not to include UOO on page 111. EDM with Area Of Effect should be built identically to the Teleporation Gates construction.

The good news is that you did find an error....just not one in HD ;-)
