I'm curious about the scope of the dataset. Even assuming it only covers Green Ronin material and only the current edition, what about the material in Ultimate Power? And will the dataset include, or be built around, the Archetypes that are common shortcuts for building M&M characters?

Nicole is really cool in my experience, so you should enjoy it.
Although it isn't relevant to this discussion, I am looking for a 1e to 2e conversion guide so I can incorporate The Clique and some of the cooler villains from Crooks! in a 2e campaign. |

Green Ronin has released a new book called the Beginner's Guide, which is essentially a collection of PC Archetypes and Sub-Archetypes. Now, i don't know how many M&M players who will be using HL will be using Archetypes that extensively, and how many will simply wing it as far as building their character and creating their powers. But it's far from useless data.

We talked to Green Ronin at Origins last week, and from what they told us the Beginner's Guide is an introduction to M&M for new players, not a collection of archetypes. They do have another product that is a collection of archetypes and so on, named "Instant Superheroes". Is that the one you're talking about? -- Colen McAlister (colen@wolflair.com) Chief Engineer, Lone Wolf Development http://www.wolflair.com/ |

I'd like to know if the dataset will continue to be updated as new books are released. The new genre books such as Hero High introduce new powers, feats, and other material to the game. Does your arrangement cover this?

So the bottom line answer is that yes, our license allows us to support the entire M&M line, but everything is subject to GR's approval. Based on preliminary feedback from GR, they seem quite happy with how we're doing stuff, so the ability to provide data files for the entire M&M line seems highly likely at this point. |
