Designer's Notes:

1) The errata sheet states Chromedome has an 80 STR. I added this in, and adjusted all of his figured characteristics to match. If you feel this makes him too powerful, give him a base 70 STR, and then add in +10 STR with the limitation of "No Figured Characteristics" as well as +2 PD and ED.

2) A quick note on Chromedome's figured characteristics. The original character sheet had a 12 PD, costing 0 points. As he had two levels of Density Increase and the character sheet says that was already added in, the only way he could get a 12 PD was to have a base 50 STR (10 PD) with +2 PD from Density Increase. In addition, all his other figured characteristics calculate out correctly if he had a 50 base STR.

3) Chromedome's SPD is listed as costing 20 points. As he is DEX 20, the real cost is 10 points ([20/10] +1 = 3).

4) Configured the Hand Attack power for 5th Edition. Removed "Requires A Skill Roll" from Head Butt, as no Skill Roll was specified or even purchased. Your best bet is to give Chromedome a "Brick Tricks" skill.

5) Removed the Density Increase power per the accepted 5th Edition way of creating heavy (and large) characters.

6) Removed Chromedome's Immunity To Alcohol. As he has Life Support (Full) he no longer needs said power.

7) Removed Chromedome's Distinctive Features. If Halfjack (VIPER) doesn't get Distinctive Features, then Chromedome sure doesn't.

8) Configured all Hunteds realistically. There is no way being hunted by Mystery's Mob on an 8- is worth 20 points! (This made Mystery's Mob as powerful a hunted as Dr. Destroyer!)

9) The original version of Chromedome cost 399 points. He now costs 455, a 56-point increase. Most of that increase is in his Life Support, Hand Attack, and buying 80 STR at 0 END.

10) Assessment: Not much to say here. He's stronger and tougher (CON and BODY-wise) than 5th Edition Ripper, but has no real defenses (although the Damage Reduction helps). He also has no levels aside from his +1 OCV and is just asking to be hammered by either a sonically-powered character or a mentalist. Oh, and that 14- go, 8- recover Berserk can't help his team mates any.
