PU3 Massive Damage Capacity Mega hero question

Unread post by Baron mugwort »

Hey guys,

So I have rolled up my Demon Lord Mega hero and one of the powers I have picked is Massive Damage Capacity from Powers Unlimited 3 (pg75).

On as a mega you add an extra 50% SDC from powers, okay cool.

However when you level up you get 100 extra SDC, does this also benefit from the 50% boost? So at second level do I get an extra 150SDC or 100SDC?

Thanks in advance :D

I don't see why it wouldn't. I would add it.

Yes the sdc bonuses apply to that.
+150Sdc per level is definitely a tough Demon Lord.

it's +50% to all SDC gained, not just those at character creation. So the per level bonus effects level up bonuses as well as SDC gained from physical skills gained over time.

The mega-power actually states "increase total SDC by 50%", which I take to mean that it includes *all* SDC. As a GM, I would rule that all SDC increases over time would get that boost.
