This is what I'm going to try and emphasize once my group starts getting
together again.  I had to fight them tooth and nail to try Deadlands since
nobody liked the western genre that much.  The story sold them and now
they've done a complete about-face.  They even watch westerns regularly now.
BNW has the advantage now that they know the basics of the system and at
least one guy loves the super-hero genre.

I heartily agree here too.  On the one hand I can see what BNW is aiming for
but at the same time, I'm going to have to tell my players to be patient
when they ask me why they don't have a very large pool of powers to choose
from.  Maybe we can hope to see something along the lines of Marvel's
Ultimate Powers Book-- just change it to the Ultimate Delta Book or
something like that :)
