[QUOTE="hero4hire, post: 3713679, member: 20711"] Unreliable is a [I]seriously[/I] harsh flaw. Crippling almost! What I am saying is I dont think I like the [I]applying flaws to array as a whole[/I] interpretation. I am not going to treat arrays as high ranked powers proced at 2pp/rank. Just not comfortable with it. I am going to talk to Steve about it for future rulings. I have been toying with your build and rebuilt Fusion from scratch to try to get similiar numbers but with a little different approach. Basically she has her [I]car form[/I] and her [I]hybrid form.[/I] The hybrid form can [I]grow[/I], combine that with Morph to look more like a Transformer. Since [I]temporary[/I] size changes arent subject to PL caps, no need for extra math. I took out the innate/linked stuff. Linked is implied, as it is a Container. Innate didn't seem to be needed for the concept of an altered human. Added Features to represent car features that dont have great game impact Added a Strike with a Trail effect that takes a full action to represent the pain of running people over. ;) Had to shave some things here and there but I think it works! :D Let me know what you think and if it is okay we can start playing (Yay!!)
