Sasquatch Feedback

[timothy]

In the OHOTMU A-Z Vol 10 it is stated that Sasquatch can lift 90 tons. In your write up you give him a strength of 14 APs. For a comparison Captain Britain in OHOMU A-Z Vol 2 can also lift 90 tons and you gave him 18 APs in strength. That means they should both have a strength of 18 APs. I think his body is too high at 15 APs. A body of 15 is diamond hardness in the Mayfair DCHs rpg Vol 3 or in the  DC attributes Benchmark Tables in the Who's Who Role Playing Supplement. In the OHOTMU Deluxe Edition #11 it says he has withstood armor-piercing machine gun fire that should give him a body in the 9-10 AP range.  In the comics he is not physically as resistance to injury as heroes like the Vision at maximum density making himself Diamond hard, The Hulk, Colossus, or the Thing. Superman has a body of 18 APs. I think the Hulk would have a body of 14 APs like DC's Captain Marvel, Colossus a Body of 13 and the Thing would have a Body of 12. That just my opinion. Sasquatch.pdf (902.43 KB)Captain Britian.pdf (903.48 KB)

So, technically, Sasquatch has a Body of 11. Once you add in the APs of Growth and Density Increase, that bumps it up to 15 (and in my Home Rules, if these powers are always on, then it is just your body, not two different numbers like "Body: 11 [15]".

As for the strength. See this is where I have to play, because, for example, Hulk and Thor (depending on the Write up) have Unearthly strength which per the OHOTMU and the OGHOTMU puts them at a Str of 12. Well, there is no way these two would be able to stand toe to toe with say Superman if this were the case, so I had to come up with a conversion process. It isn't an exact science, and then also again, once you factor in Density Increase and Growth, this number increases. I may in fact look back over this, as typically what I'd do is take those over a certain strength level and divide their ton lift by 5 (for example, 100 tons becomes 20 APs of Str. and then modified for powers like Density Increase and the like.) I may look back over this bio, I am not exactly 100% on my Alpha Flight Lore.

So, I think I found the issue. the Deluxe OHOTMU Says he can lift 70 tons, which in my conversion comes out to 14 APs, the Master Edition says 90 tons (the 18 you mentioned) I split the difference at 80, and then converted (80/5 = 16 APs Str) Also, I adjusted the Body, as I think your observation is correct, and the highest EV that any guns in the DC HEROES 3rd Ed book have is a 9

Thanks again for your feedback!
