The new powers' adherence to the powers rules that everyone already knows makes them extraordinarily easy to use. I can drop them into a game without any trouble at all. We already had complicated systems. I like that we now have one that's elegant and easy to use. That's something we didn't have before.

Yep. A good quickstart power catalogue for someone running an Eastern Martial Artists campaign. Psionic Powers are a totally different beast (one which I really admire, but wouldn't ever use without personal customisation).
