• Starting Points: 100
• Maximum Disadvantage Points: 150, 50 max from any single category.

• Can carry normal items for free: No. (Within reason, that is. I’m not going to begrudge anyone common household items.)
• Hit Locations: No.
• Knockback or Knockdown: Knockback.
• Long-term Endurance: No.
• Pushing: As described in house rule.

• Combat Value: 7-10 for beginning characters, maximum 12.

• Attack Powers: 40-50 active points for beginning characters, maximum 60 active points.
• Defenses: 18-25 for beginning characters, maximum 30.
• CON: 15-30 for beginning characters, no maximum.

Languages: All languages appropriate to present-day Earth can be bought.

New Perk: You will probably at some point be asked by other hero groups to join the Super Info Net. This is a 3 point perk. It allows access to data files describing past cases of all the groups on the net, known info on enemies the groups have fought, etc. It also allows direct communication with other groups.

Money: The money point system is used. No character should start out with points spent on wealth. Characters may start out with money disadvantages. If anyone does, then no one in the group may buy wealth until all characters have bought off their money disadvantages.

Powers: No particular restrictions or recommendations. All special effects are available.

Disadvantages: Most characters will have Secret ID. Another recommended disad is Hunted by Villain Group, As Powerful, 8 or less, 10 points. This represents a "villain of the week" type -- there’s always somebody after a group of superheroes.
