I have 2 children under 4, so it gets hard to focus on any one thing most of the time. So I apologize if I restate something that has already been posted or if it's in any other way apparent that I hadn't read the thread thoroughly. First, I'd like to comment on c_m2008's postI kind of agree with this, but I'm also aware that a super-super comic books style setting was not the goal here. More of a mild super-heroes setting a bit like the Heroes TV show.I agree with removing the caps. I think it would be much simpler to just remove the ability score caps and then not bother with super-ability scores as a poweragain I agree with the abolition of caps. I understand the designers reason for these restrictions. To maintain control and keep things from getting out of hand. But that could be easily enforced by the GM rather than the mechanics. Removing the option to min-max is too restrictive I think. I think it's better left to the GM to enforce natural consequences of having a min-maxed characterI thought the exact same thing when I looked at this power. I don't really see it as being true regeneration. I don't think true regenartion would destroy the short rest mechanic because it would be a power that would need to be triggered rather than constant. And the healing surge would give  you a bigger healing bump on top of what you're regenerating so that mechanic would be fine tooI don't think the dice scale is complicated. But I do like the idea of buying more dice.Again, I would prefer to simply have no cap on my ability scores rather than a separate mechanic for 'super' ability scores.Like C_M2008, there are some things I would have done differently, but that's to be expected. No game system is EXACTLY the way any player would have done it. That's why we have homebrew games. IMHO this system is fine as is, no gamebreaking flaws or bad mechanics. I think there are things that could be done to improve it, like some of the suggestions already given, but only as a matter of personal taste and preference.</blockquote>
