[s]Actually. It is connected with Supervillainy 101 that has actually started and operates on the same system.[/s] [s]And meant to run parellel. That is why it is "to late".[/s] I see you noticed on your own.

General rule of thumb: If I, as a GM, say it is to late to change and say it is not up for discussion, there is no point with challenging it. I'm pretty stubborn that way.

The Gradual strength mechanic is fine in itself. Its just tricky to balance, as a player can easily just go full power really quickly. The problem with free form and all that. I would be fine with the gradual strength being basically double the Generic one, but the drawback must be just as bad or the player gets a free ticked to powerville so to speak.
