Or maybe Bruno has a Perk about it.

Actually, it's my Absent Mindedness kicking in, I ended up rushing around the house looking for my purse, because I had no idea where I'd left it.

But I've found the purse, bought the PDF, and read it. And it is awesome. Now to put together a shopping list of Stuff I'd Love My DF Character To Get Eventually, and see how many of them my GM likes, and how many makes him want to burn my character sheet.

Ah, I see that there is Reach Mastery. This pleases me.

And just finished it. Lots of very useful stuff in there. Everything from Supers and DF (two sources of some great perks), plus all the obvious stuff from Basic and MA, and a significant amount of new ones. Not quite as "gee whiz" as Powerups 1 was, but definitely more generally useful.

I bet... nº1 I'm not even very curious about, this one I must have!
(Perk's are just so damned fun!)

Yes. This first one is mostly "all the published perks in one place" plus "all the perks Kromm ever made up in the forums" (seriously, you can go check -- I was keeping a list and checking it twice). The next one will no doubt have more off-the-wall and contributed perks. I just wanted to lay a foundation.

I like this direction -- especially using e23 as the vehicle.

If this is supposed to have all published perks, wouldn't it also be updated to include all the perks in its own sequels?

Nice try. :) It's specifically everything up to a given quarter ("spring 2008").

Re: Perky - Possible Errata
 
While working on making a GDF file for this I noticed a possible minor omission, the perk is quite specific for the Transhuman Space campaign. Anyway, here is the perk (from page 23 on Shell-Tech):

Physically attractive in a stylized, abstract way (+1 reactions from people with a taste for stylish design who haven’t seen the model much before).

Beautiful. I hereby vote with my money and my post to the effect that this is exactly the sort of thing I want.
