[QUOTE="Quantum, post: 5091530, member: 56918"] I think what's confusing people here is that D&D is a level progressing system, which M&M is not. They both use levels to describe how powerful a character is, but remember, a 10th level Sorcerer is going to be very different than a PL 10 MAge in M&M. Also in regards to the differences, in M&M you can have someone be strong enough to lift a 25,000 ton ship on PL 10. In D&D you are not. Unless you have a Strength score over a thousand. And the sailing vessels are not likely to surpass a few hundred tons. The largest sailing vessel ever built was the [I]Thomas W. Lawson [/I]and she weighed 5,218 GRT / 4,914 NRT.[U][/U] (Which is Gross RegistryTonange that is based on the total internal volume of a vessel and and [B]Net Register Tonnage [/B]is the volume of cargo the vessel can carry). There is no way any character made with the system can lift something that heavy. [/QUOTE]
