Man, its been forever and a day since I logged in here and recently got the bug to run again and here I am.
So as a bit of a refreshed, one of my players is playing an Immortal from PU2 and the Dragon specifically, a ruling has been raised and I just wanted to get clarification before I hand a final ruling.
It states that the Dragon gets Supernatural Strength among other abilities, my assumption is that the strength score is just converted one for one to supernatural strength and that they do not gain the major power of supernatural strength, am I correct in this assumption?
Thanks for your time!

I have used a lot of creatures from Nightbane and Rifts and all I have done is just use the damage stats from PFRPG or Nightbane can't remember which one. HU is kind of old so I bring stuff in from other games to update.

That's close to how I treat it. They basically get the SNPS superpower with the exception of the attribute roll. So if the player's PS is a 22 then they'd have the lifting and damage capabilities of someone with a SNPS of 22 under the power.

Yes, just like with Mega Heroes, the PS score stays the same but is now SNPS instead of normal PS.
It is NOT the SNPS major hero power.
So your understanding of the text is correct.
And not an assumption.

Re: Supernatural Strength
As they said, I agree. Your assumption is correct.
On the note of the Dragon Immortal, I am annoyed that it says to limit the number of powers, since they get so much already. Then the Demigod and Godling says to add more powers, cause they need two mega powers or one mega and another major power.
I don't see a reason to limit the Dragon in that way myself, so my house rule ignores that limitation.
My two cents.

Re: Supernatural Strength
Yeah, just keep their strength number where it is, but now it's supernatural. allowing them to lift/drag more and do more damage.
Though, I would go with Yukon and say they get another major super ability above and beyond what they normally get.

If you support ICE/BCP/BorderPatrol at this point, you would have called the Gestapo on the people surreptitiously moving into your neighbor's attic and huffed that you were only following the law.
