I don't agree. I could easily make what I would consider to be a "low powered" game fully expecting the players to overcome the challenges presented to them. I could also make "high powered" game where the point was to cause as much collateral damage as possible before you inevitably die in a blaze of glory.To me, high powered makes me think of flashyness and high numbers, and low powered makes me think of subtlety and low numbers. But, I agree with Canis. It doesn't matter what I consider high power to be, because there are people who thinks D&D isn't high powered until you're level 40, and another who thinks that you get too powerful in D&D at level 5.In other words, its like saying a meal is big. Once you can convince the world of the definition of a "big" meal or a "long" book or a "small" house, then you'll convince me that we can find a definition of the term "high powered" or "incredibly powerful."</blockquote>
