Re: Too Transform

seems to me that the 'Power' of the Transform is actually 2 powers, first, a RKA that does no Stun that is AVAD of Power Defense, that doesn't actually kill. and there is the Transformative power that requires this other power to do a certain amount of BODY before it takes affect. If we can divorce these two powers, we could cover a lot more situations as well as give us a fairer idea of what the cost should be

Re: Ranged attacks while engaged in melee

I think actions that have the Concentration limitation should be easily foiled by an adjacent HTH combatant - maybe requiring an EGO roll to avoid flinching or otherwise losing the action (being kind - if the archer loses the action allow him to regain his normal DCV)

Re: Invisible Armor

I think he means that the fact that the person is not actually harmed is hidden from the attackers - that IS a new kind of invisible power effect, kind of like painless attacks that SEEM not to actually have hurt you

maybe we could have a Talent relating to "rolling with Punch" like a Defence Maneuver, so it can be sort-of always on in combat

Re: Bag of Holding

the main advantage to an EDM version is that it has no maximum limit

Re: Dispel Undead

my thoughtss are that undead come under the heading of a specific special effect, and giving them all the same disadvantage is very appropriate (say in an undead package deal).

Having said that, I also believe it should not be easy for clerics to dispel them.

can't you adapt the Transform power, or use a summon.

Re: Enough to Destroy A Planet?

I have always been of the opinion that area affect attacks should have increased (rather than multiple) effect on larger characters, effectively +2dc per x8 mass (but only if the original attack breaches the defense of the character).

this would obviously have an upper limit if the target is larger than the Area affected.

the corollary would be that a small person/object would suffer less damage from area affect attacks (without being less penetrating)

Re: Ranged attacks while engaged in melee

One could always make a house rule (if there isn't already such) that weapons that require Concentration can be foiled by a high enough Presence attack (include violent action) making the (in this case) archer fail to attack
