Mental Powers v. Mechanon

[Intrope]

Is Mechanon treated as Human-class, Alien-class or Machine-class mind? (Or all of these?). The text (Champions p205, 1st para under Powers/Tactics) says that he reacts to mental powers 'just like an organic mind', but it's not clear to me whether that's saying that he's not immune to mental powers like an automaton (but in machine-class as an intelligent machine) or whether it's saying he's supposed to be treated as Human-class (or maybe as Alien-class).

 

As a related question, in a typical champions campaign how much would Physical Lim: treated as multiple classes of mind be worth?

1. Treat him as both Human and Machine minds. He ought to've gotten a Physical Limitation for this, but I forgot to add it in. C'est la vie.

 

2. It depends on how frequently and severely it would affect the character. In most campaigns, I doubt it would be worth more than 5 points.
