Really? Only 3...that seems interesting. Very simple I would imagine. The
rules for "Psychonetics" that we worked out here took 3 years and now
encompasses 52 pages, including tables, special archetype overlaps,
differentiates between the "Master Talents" and the "Subordinates".
It isn't
like AD&D, if anything I would have to say its' a bit like the Marvel System.
Sure, you're a Telepath, but you can't read my mind without developing that
specifically.
There were lots of people here that told me I should have submitted it, but I
wasn't really certain that FASA, Tom in particular at the time, would have
enjoyed an entirely new "subset" of the paranormal entering in SR so boldly.
It also reworked the Skillweb concerning the Willpower, Charisma, and
Intelligence in regards to all the magic -AND- the Psychonetics. In the end
it really worked, but it had evidence of "falling into the Powergamers"
hands, if you get my drift (hey, those Cost 12 powers were really cool, just
not very believable.

I am very interested, but I goofed the reply options here. My address is
"ereskanti@***.com"...some people have problems with replying to it, so
perhaps the "e" is capitalized for some.
