Hi! I'm anxiously looking forward to purchasing the retail ruleset as soon as it becomes available, as well as an Ultimate Powers expansion as soon as you can manage it. Until then Im happily playing around with the public preview. It seems a really great product...clean design and easy to use.
One little thing I wouldn't mind seeing in some future version, is some sort of token notice that you've exceeded power levels on a score as soon as you go past it. I understand now, that HL handles attack/defense tradeoffs automatically, and will eventually give you a violation warning if you exceed the PL in *both* the linked stats...which is great. But I admit to a bit of confusion at first as to why I was able to barrel past the PL in attack bonus at first (having not yet tried to assign any ranks to powers, or having increased my STR enough to trip the warning).
Just some sort of token immediate feedback that you've exceeded the PL and are now into "Tradeoff mode", with an indication of what you're sacrificing by pumping the number higher, would be helpful to new users, and my newer players (all of which I will be recommending the software to). Perhaps the affected number(s) could simply become yellow or something.
Of course, its entirely possible that such a thing is already in, and Im missing it. In which case, I apologize, and please just ignore me. Thank you for developing for this great game, and I look forward to the ruleset and continued expansion.
