Re: best way? Mojo Jojo and Him were arguing who was more powerful. Princess flies up and says, "I have the greatest power of all: cold hard CASH." Mojo Jojo and Him had to agree. Anything you buy at the store have the limitations OAF, Independent, Fragil, ect... Just use the limitations to their full effect.

Re: Baseball-related characters in comics/games? Eric Bennett aka Sport-1 of the Bionic Six had electromagnetic powers and a baseball motif.

Re: Rules to ignore, or replace Ok, say Plasticman here wants to intercept some legal documents from Matt Murdock(Daredevil). Mr. Murdock is blind so he doesn't notice the different coloration. He notices the mailbox doesn't smell like a mailbox, but let's just say Mr. Murdock assumes someone is mailing a package of bad cologne which broke. When he touches the mailbox, because Plasticman has apparently bought Shapeshift vs Touch, he feels a cold metal box. (Does Plasticman have the ability to feel like a cold metal box?) What does Daredevil's radar sense see if Plasticman has changed physical shape, but didn't purchase Shapeshift vs Radar Sense.

Re: Rules to ignore, or replace Let's say a brick wall is hardened by default. Does it make sense for magic tendrils to reach out of every brick wall to stop my boomerang? If you are inside a vehicle (windows rolled up, and the top up if it's a convertable) it should protect you from my boomerang whether it's hardened or not. Ok, for powers designed with Indirect as limited Desolid, hardened defences stoping them makes sense. But how do you define throwing a ball over a hardened Force Wall (that does not have sfx that would include magic tendrils), bouncing it off a wall on the other side, and hitting your opponent? Do I buy a million levels of Indirect to represent real world physics? And, on a separate note, if I Shapeshift, with Mental Sense only, into a chair, do I look like a human twisted into the shape of a chair?

Re: Rules to ignore, or replace So I Shapeshift (with the touch group only) into a chair. A blind man walks up looking for somewhere to sit, bumps into the illusion of me. And just as he starts to rest his weight on the chair, falls to the floor. Very useful.

Re: Rules to ignore, or replace If I have shapeshift only for touch does that mean I can twist my form into any physical shape but unless someone actually touches me no one could tell. Sounds like what shapeshift should be with +1/2 or more of IPE.

Re: Rules to ignore, or replace Can anyone give me an example of how it would make sense for a hardened defense to stop an indirect attack and not an other wise identical non-hardened defense?

Does the Leaping Power grant 1" to a standing leap or a 1/2" like STR?

How do you apply limitations to Naked Advantages that apply to the entire power including the Naked Advantage and not just the Naked Advantage? For instance: Running and a Naked Advantage, Usable As Flight, with limitations Only In Contact With A Surface, Limited Maneuverability, Stall Speed, and x2 Increased Endurance. Added use but at a cost.

Re: Weight a minute Teleport UAA, Telekinesis, Bricks that have a habit of throwing their opponents,... If it's useful 5% of the time and you can turn it off when it's not, it's an advantage. If you don't want to weigh 6400kg don't get DI and go with your build. I'd like to shut off about 20lbs myself.

Re: THE ULTIMATE SPEEDSTER -- What Do *You* Want To See? Noone has mentioned matter surfing. I've seen numerous builds, including various advantages/limitations on flight to a questionable one involving tunneling, but none seem to match what the X-Men's Iceman can do with his iceslides.
