I haven't seen either of those, myself, so I cannot compare BNW to DC or 
Marvel.

However, I am (slowly) working on a partial-point-build system: each power 
package would come with a list of specific power advantages/disadvantages 
that were allowed; I will try to make it so one single amount of points, 
applied across all power packages, will build *precisely* the Package as 
listed in the standard, core rules ... well, give or take maybe up to 5% ...

This way, you can have, say, two Blasters that are slightly different ... one 
with low power but high ROF, the other with but a single blast, but a DOOZY 
of a blast that would be!

I don't expect to have it properly written out for at LEAST another month or 
two (since I'm also working on a Star Trek: TNG campaign I'll be running 
offline), but I'll post it here when I do.

If Matt Forbeck wants to make comments, suggest changes, and all: I'd be 
honored.  =o)  Heck, maybe that sort of thing can be included in some sort of 
"optional rules for more advanced players" product, along with a lot of the 
other house rules discussed here.  =o)
