Operation Martial Law looks like a great resource. I love the cover and look forward to checking this out!

I picked up a copy of this earlier this morning, and read over coffee and a muffin. At five (5) pages (well, 4.5 - there's a colorful .5 ad for the Awesome Powers! series), it's an easily digestible article, with minimal rules impact.

It does reference the Membership Advantage (and Perks) as described in Awesome Powers! vol. 4 (which is stated in the RPGnow description), mainly in describing / outlining a sample local US Marshal's Office. If one didn't have AP! #4, they could probably wing it based on the wording.

The main narrative is about a page, plus the Membership write-up, some minimum requirements for Marshal service, a mention of some equipment, and then three adventure seeds to pull together a group round out the article.

The accompanying "Metahuman Threat Scale" article (about 2 pages) is a nice supporting piece for narrative classification of various, well, metahuman threats. Non-rules based, it could easily be ported into any superhero game, Marshal's office or not.

Overall, I quite liked it.
