Cosmic vs. Cosmic (ala Kryptonian vs. Kryptonian?)

About what question you're asking with this thread. I think I answered it with the mandatory Bane on defensive traits and Accessibility on offensive traits, but I'm not sure and so I was asking for you to clarify.

4E. The forums don't support 3E unless you make it explicitly clear that is what you're asking about.

GURPS Powers includes Super-Effort for Lifting ST on pg 58. GURPS Supers merely expands it so that you can take it on Striking ST as well for four-color and ultraviolent games. It also packages {Extra HP; Lifting ST (Super-Effort); Striking ST (Super-Effort)} into a single advantage, Super-ST, for ease of notation and a small discount (it should be 10/ with a +320% enhancement, they have it at 10/ with a +300% enhancement).

Ahhh ok that's not so bad then LOL sounded like it was more like that old 1pt for 1pt thing.

No, the current version of that kind of system is available at http://www.gamesdiner.com/rules-nugg...er-cost-for-st (when the site is not temporarily offline), and has been quite recently discussed in the "Advantages Are Not Priced By Utility" thread right here. It actually works pretty well, a smoother progression than the old 3e costs.

Doomsday is a Kryptonian, though. In "reality," supers harm those on their own power level just like humans harm each other, but, with more knockback.

limitation on his DR and Injury Tolerance as well.

DR (Bane, Common: Magic -10%)

Can someone give Hellboy the subtitle "Thread Necromancer" ? :)
