We're having an on going "discussion" in my SR group about the alienation
power. Noone seems to agree on what "intangible" implies. Are victims
affected by alienation subject to physical intangibility (bullets pass
through them, walk through walls, etc) or are they just rendered invisible
and their "friends shoot(ing) through them" implies that they just can't
see them on any plane? In one instance we actually used alienation to our
advantage, because we've been using the second definition of the
power...Sorry Brett, don't mean to undermine you, but damn it, I want a
straight answer. :)

In my understanding of the power, I think the guy is rendered invisible
from others but at the same time :
* He can't see or detect anything.
* He can still be hit.

The reason why I apply such a rule is that alienation is NOT a benecial power.

IMU, Alienation is supposed to be an attack power, making someone invisible so
others will do things like place him in their line of fire, so I would say that
its going to be invisibility, not intangibility.
