new campaign starting: GURPS Supers

I've just gotten four people in the area where I live to sign up for a mini-campaign using GURPS. (It will be played by videoconference, but I'm hoping the day will come when I can run face to face sessions again.)

I'm using the background from my Pyramid article "Götterdämmerung," about a world where four alternate timelines have undergone reality subduction, and supers are created by the emergence of living reality shards. There aren't going to be any characters with the generic "Super" power modifier; instead characters can have any of 13 modifiers associated with different substrate realities, or the Trained modifier, which is available to people from mundane reality. I'm setting it in the 1940s, when the super people are coming home from the war and trying to fit into civilian life; it's going to be streetlevel, comparable say to the "Defenders" shows from Marvel.
