I feel ya - I finally got tired of waiting - that's why I cobbled together this Sourcebook project.

Yes, along with friend Rusche and myself! We all love FASERIP and want a new edition with updates in previous characters and entries on all the new ones!

I may have a little down time over the next few Holidays and will try to work on some characters!

I am by no means a character-builder, but many characters I am very familiar with, as well as their previous stats and where I think they should be listed. I will start there.

What are your thoughts on Feeble to Beyond scale? O think there are grey areas between some stats, I know other old fan made sources try to address that.

I think Feeble is a good stat to have, as well as the Beyond one.

I don't agree how they used to put Franklin Richards and Aunt May in the feeble category. They are both actually "typical" for their ages. Perhaps someone with a serious disease state or near-paralyzed would be "Feeble" strength. I know a few women in their 80s and while not the "Typical" strength of someone in their 30s, they can carry gallons of milk or lift a turkey.

Beyond can be used for, well, the Beyonder(s), Molecule Man, Eternity, etc. Not for most characters.

I know some fans made categories in-between the official ones, but they seemed forced and squeezed in some areas. The only area I see maybe a need for a few additional categories is in the far upper end: after Cl 5000 and before Beyond. So maybe a CL 10000, 25000 and 50000??

Yes, I think the high end needs some attention as well. Are you starting from the beginning?? Whatever help I can do just ask. However you want to approach this, I am in.

Thanks! I will probably start with a few characters that are near-and dear (like Jean Grey, Phoenix, etc) along with some others near the beginning (Abomination, Binary, Black Cat, Black Widow). I will definitely ask you for input and advice.

Pretty decent update today - added sixteen pages between both volumes - added Galactus' ships, Taa II, the Star Sphere/World Ship, and the Punisher Automations; the Hulk entry has picked up Hulk 2099, Devil Hulk; and the Iron Man entry has added several Iron Man armors. In the second volume, I updated and corrected Michael Myers, and added Dr. Loomis and Laurie Strode, added the Thanosi to the Thanos entry, and King Thor, Eric Masterson Thor, Thunderstrike, Red Norvell Thor, and Thor Herald of Galactus.

That is a lot. I am going to have to look at them all later.

On the higher-end, for FASERIP, I added Beyond-Level 1-3, to separate power levels for the likes of the Infinity Gauntlet, the Living Tribunal, the Great Evil Beast, the Marvel/DC 'Brothers', the Presence, the One Above All, etc.
On the lower levels, rather than adding categories, I've broken them down into a number count - an Unearthly character, for example, might have a Strength score, ranging from 90-100 points.
