Anything over 50% PL for tradeoffs probably would not be approved unless it had very good rationale. (a la the martial artist archetype from corebook)

Tradeoffs are on a per attack or defense type basis, but are closely looked at for rules abuse and should have good rationales behind the tradeoffs.

Actualy, +5/-5 limits were voted on, approved, and should be in the rules somewhere.

I did the math, after +5/-5, it gets stupid, and it doesn't realy matter what the base is.

No it isn't a House Rule. It is possible for a character to have a 15ATK/5DMG character to have one attack power that is 10ATK/10DMG.

As I said, Tradeoffs are on a Per Attack or Per Defense basis. Though there must be rationale behind the various trade-offs. Just because it is legal does not mean it will be approved.

This is an Official Rule as per Core Book as clarified by Steve Kenson here.

The other interpretation (whole character), was a misconception we made at LS earlier, so that may be much of the confusion.

Ok then, I will pull start my adventure after the Christmas and I have thinking about taking up to 6 or 7 new players.

Awesome, I can start my mission after Salix gets back in January (since he volenteered to judge it).

I did check out the thread

but couldnt find any official outcome other then the one vote cast.

That being said I agree that limits should be there. Not knowing that there was a hard and fast limit, I definitely took good hard looks at tradeoffs when approving characters. Though I would have been hard pressed to turn down a newbie who simply wanted to play the "Martial Artist" archetype from the corebook. (who is +16 hit +4 dmg.)

I definitely agree 50% of PL is a good rule of thumb though.

You should be okay to start whenever you're ready. In actual play, it is rare that the judge is needed except when the GM vanishes, so if you don't plan on vanishing...

 

[hero4hire]

Yup any one of the Judges can hop in if there is a problem until Salix comes back.

It was approved, the last post was just before the board crash. Apparently it wasn't documented.
