Thanks. That's what I thought too. Several more thoughts here for you (and anyone else interested).
1. I am excited that the swarm turned out to be the Mechanoids! As long as that book has been out, I have only glanced at it (I don't think I own it) enough to have the name 'Hagan Lonovich' ring a distant bell. I don't know much about the Mechanoids and I'm looking forward to this adventure!
2. Also, for Gradicus's 5th-level tattoo, I have chosen Empathy & Transmission. It's a big change-up for Gradicus, granting him the Sensitive Power Empathy and the Super-Psionic power of Empathic Transmission. Since these Mechanoids are indeed living creatures, I'm wondering if it will come in handy, but moreso, it's a really neat tattoo that looks like a great deal of potential fun! =)
3. Given that I've got 4 skills for Gradicus, with your permission, I was thinking of spending two of them on W.P. Sharpshooter (page 91, Skills Compendium 6.0) for Heavy Weapons? I like the idea of shooting a heavy weapon one-handed while having a shield in the other (and given Gradicus's Supernatural Strength and exceptionally-high P.P. score, he might be able to hit something instead of falling over like his player would! Hah!). Are you okay with this?
4. That said, I have to ask - how are you working ranged gun-related combat in your games? I continue to see multiple ways of doing it. Are you adding P.P. bonuses? If not, are you instead providing negatives to dodge or something else entirely?
5. Does anyone (including our Game Master) have any ideas for Gradicus's two other skills?
