Immunity Question

Hey folks:

I have two questions:

Question 1

The Power Armor archetype (pg. 118) has the power:

Immunity 4 (Suffocation, Poison, Temperatures, Electricity), 4 pts.

The question is: is Temperatures legitimate as an immunity? Wouldn't the character need to buy Heat and Cold separately? If I'm wrong about this - what would Temperatures protect against? A limited range of naturally occuring temperatures, but not attacks?

Question 2

Should immunity to thirst and starvation be one or two ranks in immunity.

As Narrator, I know the decision is largely up to me, but I guess I'm asking for opinions.

Best,

Dragonfly

Well I can give you my opinions for what they're worth...

#1 Temperatures: I would think that the goal was to make the hero immune to extreme environmental temperatures, not attacks. He could survive in an arctic winter, but would take damage normally from a frost blast from another super hero.

#2 Thirst and Starvation: I don't see the need to purchase it seperately, just like being immune to extreme temperatures doesn't need to be purchased seperately for heat and cold.

They're like peas and carrots, they just go together

Thanks Dustland,

That's what I was thinking too, but I like to bounce these ideas/rulings off folks on the boards. Thanks again!

Best,
