A Question About Giants!!

I have seen the Zentradi and the Mount Nimro Giants books, and seem to need more clarification regarding Giant-type characters. (Heroes Unlimited has a good mechanics section regarding Giants but...) Now I was looking to see what the damage was to a stomp attack, and my players said that the damage was too low? I kinda disagreed, but is there a different damage for really LARGE persons or is it all the same?
Thanks!


Physically I know it would take a VERY large man to cave in on his own weight if he grew too large, presumably the mass is compensated by the Strength and the Endurance...
Any comments?

I would say use kick damage unless the giant in question is more than say 10x larger than what it is stomping. It's difficult for a 14' tall being to effectively stomp something that is waist high.

When you have SN PS, Size makes absolutely no difference to damage.
