Machine Man- +4 multi-spectral optical imaging with zooming What's wrong with just saying Enhanced Vision

What's wrong with just saying Enhanced Vision He can use different spectrums like infra-red and the like.

In MURPG, Durability is more than just Endurance/stamina(unless your energy pool is based on your intelligence), it's also your overall competence hence it's close to your edge in SAGA system....
(In SAGA edge gives you hand size, ergo your health and energy).
In short..
Machine Man has too much Energy.

Your hand size (which is more or less a way of measuring experience, like levels in D20, whereas Strength, functioning as defense, is in part your ability to take a blow) determines your edge, not the other way around. That said, I think Machine Man's durability is still a tad too high. I'd put it at 5, giving him the same dur as Vision.

Your hand size determines your edge, not the other way around. WRONG !!!! In SAGA system you buy Edge... Hand size is Edge +1 Ergo -> Your EDGE determines your hand size. R00fles ! Back to topic-> Yes Dur 5 would be better... V.

Tell me, on which page of the game book does it say that? Pages 99 & 194 And does it make a difference? No, but then again... nothing in this forum does. BTW the +1 is a typo should have been +2 V.

I thought he had a Helicopter head, Ankle rockets, .357 magnums, and Heat/Cold generation.

How does this differ from Telescoping limbs. It is the same. I changed the Dur. to 5.
