As for the stat bonuses... I've sort of forgotten about them since we actually got the action going... I'll have to give it some more thought. As to the HP bonus, I believe it was twice the hardness bonus I gave, so even the smaller guys get 16 more HPs, I believe.
I'm just... Gosh, I've made some many changes already... Funny thing is, back when the T-formers first came out, I actually created a game for it... It was kind of goofy, but I had done some nice "races" for the different types of autobots. Of course that is well before d20, but I keep thinking of how those guys would adapt when my mind goes to game mechanics, not to how we ought to ballance these guys. It would be easier if the size thing wasn't part of the priority. But guys who spend more on an altform priority should have a bigger, tougher alt and primary form...
So... I'm not sure yet what I want to do. For one, it just doesn't make sense that someone as BIG as Jackknife has no better con or str than wee little bumblebee. So something, I think, should be done.
For now, just add the HP bonuses and eventually something will come... OR if you have a nice idea, please post it. You might have the spark that solves my Dilemma.
On hafrogman's side note:
A buddy of mine got it a year ago and I was so excited... the nastalgia is definately there but my god, just like Hafrogman said, the dialogue/script is terrible. I wondered how I could have loved it so much at first, when I was in shock by it. But I was watching Transformers: Energon the other day and... I don't like it. I like 'bots that look like real cars, not space ships, despite how cool some might look. Also... they just got something wrong. I mean, Ironhide, the grizzled war veteran with the cool voice in season one just doesn't cut it with the teenager sounding voice in Energon. Sure, ours was cheeky but at least they got the characters right (in my opinion).
