Hmm. I'm not completely clear on what you two are saying. Well, at
least one of you pointed out that w/ the MoreMetas option, magical costs
for metas go up.. That is valid, and in the rulebook, but I like lots of
metas and magic in my games, so as a GM, I invoked that most almighty
curse of:"Fuck Fasa, I'm going with what I goddamn fucking well like.
Fasa can go screw themselves blue." In other words, I like my version
better than Fasa's, so that's what I run my games under. For other
people, pick whichever system you prefer. It depends on how much
magic/metahumanity you want in the party.
