[Lensman] Differences between 1st and 2nd editions?
Hi,
My search-fu is apparently not up to the task. Can someone point me to a link that describes the updates between the first (1993) and second (2001) editions of GURPS Lensman? Thanks.

I don't think there are any significant differences.

Both are for GURPS Third Edition. GURPS Powers: Totem and Nature Spirits has an enhancement that mimics Sense of Perception.

There is also a version of Sense of Perception in GURPS Powers: Enhanced Senses.

That's the only thing I can recall being mentioned though.

I think that covers the Rigellians? pretty well that could see without eyes or ears but not some of the high level trivks done by others. By the way, where is the Scanner enhancement defined? See Ultrascan p. 27.

No, I meant Mass Perception on p. 26.

Re: [Lensman] Differences between 1st and 2nd editions?
Ah, yeah I see Perception as a sort of Super ESP power described here though IIRC they could also see into things and even atoms, at the least the Second Stage lensmen.

The sese of Perception is a Ranged and Discriminatoty Detect of unusual breadth. Something like "Detect Matter and Energy" and it can be enhanced to extraordianry ranges and use the eqivalent of 6 or more levels of Microscopic Vision at range.
