Re: Champions Villains, Volume 1: Master Villains

 

I had a question about the character Arthon. It is noted in the text that he cannot use powers in his Variable Power Pool greater than 30 active points unless he uses limitations, and that he must take at least -2 limitations to be able to use powers of 60 active points. Yet, his power pool is 80 points with a 60 point control cost with no limitations, and he has the power skill, 20 or less. Shouldn't he get some kind of limitation to his control cost?

Following up on my earlier question, I was wondering if there was an errata page(s) anywhere for the 6th Ed. Villains books?

 

One minor complaint I have is that the point totals are not set forth for multipower slots, so it's sometimes unclear whether a character can use two or more slots at the same time (since the combined point total might exceed the total pool, especially where one of the slots is a defensive power). I've sometimes computed the totals myself but sometimes wonder if maybe I'm making a mistake somewhere. It might be helpful to set forth the point total in square parentheses, in addition to the slot cost.
