The one I used was from RQ2.

Jason,

How about the SIZ equivalency table show in preview? Is that from RQ3, CoC, Superworld, or something new? At least I think that is what the table is.

It's a combo of all three, including the one from Stormbringer (if I remember correctly).

Thanks.

Is it built to some sort of underlyiying formula or eye-balled? (sorry, working on ship/vehicle combat ideas)

Eyeballed and averaged.

Thanks, again. That helps me in working out SIZ ratings.

Weapons will have STR/DEX requirements I believe. Any chance of seeing firearms examples of those requirements? I can not wait to see the weapons tables in the book!

Hello Jason,

Is the Power Points reserve (the new name of magic points) unique for all the powers? What I mean is that IF somebody (depending on setting) has both Psionics and Magic, has he 1 reserve of points for both set of powers, or 1 reserve for each of the sets?

Runequestement votre,

Kloster

Power points are the generic version of magic points. They fuel everything. There are notes that if the GM is running a fantasy campaign, he/she can change the name to magic points, or a supers game might have them as energy points, but they're the same reservoir.

The rules explicitly advise against using different pools for different power types.

This may be better suited in another thread, but as far as game settings go, does Chaosium have some sort of submitting system for proposals or do they just hire freelancers to write what they have in mind?
