2) That's interesting but distance hasn't ever come up as an issue for me. For example throwing a pretty sizable 4000 lb car: -ST 30 (Spidey, BL 2,000 lbs) has a ratio of 2 for a x.3 distance, allowing him to hurl it 9 yards. Not bad, and perhaps even more than you would expect from Spidey. - ST 40 (Thing, BL 20,000 lbs) has a ratio of .2 for a x1.5 distance, allowing him to hurl it 60 yards. That's a luxury car hurled most of the way down a football field - certainly good for combat distance. Both are far enough for combat throwing and you could further throw on a level or 2 of Super Throw if you want distance that's much higher than your ST. Under the old system: -ST 30/120, for BL 2,880 lbs., that's ~36 yards. -ST 33/320, for BL 20,000 lbs, that's 480 yards. Those seem just seem awfully high, especially as a starting value. I just don't see Spidey throwing a 2013 Ford Taurus 1/3 of a football field. |
