I know Marvel Heroic Roleplaying managed this by abstracting elements into narrative terms. (Rather than the Hulk having a strength of 100 and Captain America having a strength of 20—this just a wild guess; I have no clue how their respective strengths compare to each other—the system assign dice to things that were most important to the characters. Hulk has a d12 associated with his "godlike" strength and endurance while Cap has a d12 associated with the durability of his shield.) Does OneDice Supers allow for that kind of abstraction?mrm1138https://www.blogger.com/profile/05858260241792853695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372464286852637246.post-31486099080413000352017-04-02T06:57:48.319-07:002017-04-02T06:57:48.319-07:00I was actually working on a homebrew supers system...I was actually working on a homebrew supers system and decided to take a typing break to continue reading your blog when I came across this post.
