A lot of the new variant races try to sneak a few more attribtes modifers
their way without holfing to the +3 concept behind the metahumans. Mostly
the dwarf and ork variants are the one trying this the Troll variant are all
OK as is.

The Cyclops , Formori, the Norse Giant and the Minotaur all are based off
the Troll are all balanced. The same goes for the elf variants go figure.
Except for the Night Ones who are hairy drow. The only correction they need
is to not give any points for their allergy inherent to their race. If the a
Night One wants points pick another allergy.

The Korborohuru(sp?) tries to have a dwarf with no quickness penalty. I
suggest just using the standard dwarf mod fot this race.

The Menehene a polynesian dwarf can be balanced with using standard dwarf
giving only +1 die vs disease instaed of +2.

The Hobgoblin is ok as is.

The Gnone a dwarf variant should only get +1 th STR to cmpensate for the +2
to willpower.

The Oni is a bit weird I think it's a typo. Only give a +2 to Bod instaed of
+3 and up the Willpower mod by +1.

The Wakjambi is ok as is.

The Orge suffer no CHA penalty so introduce a -1 to quickness.

The Satyr is ok. And so is the Dryad.

That's my spin on game balance.

If you have to ask then it's probably classified.
Which means that I have to follow protocol.
But if you ask nicely I might forget that you asked.
Then again maybe not.
