[HoE] Sykers vs. Doomsayers

["Matthew J. Brown" <judasstone@juno.com>]

<<<<<Has anyone else had the problem of sykers grossly overshadowing
Doomsayers in
their games.  In my opinion, Sykers had better powers in the main book,
and
the Doomsayer book should have been out before Brainburners.  But, that's
just
my rant.  My question is, is that since many of the Syker powers seem a
lot
more useful than the Doomsayer ones, (not even gonna mention the combat
powers) has anyone done anything about the situation?  (Oh, I forgot, the
sykers get fortitude too)>>>>


About the only thing I can say, (without sounding too much like Shane),
is be patient.  I can't think of anyone really wanting to limit the
Sykers in the game simply because their sourcebook came out first. 
Although I'm not suggesting that's what you're saying.
I'm positive when Children of the Atom comes out, it will be a fantastic
read and cure any doubts of yours about the Doomsayers capabilities.
In regards to the powers from the HOE main rulebook and the fact that you
think the Syker powers are more useful, the same argument could have been
made about the Mad Scientist and Huckster lets say from the Deadlands
rulebook way back when.  It's all a matter of perspective.
So to say it again, I would suggest holding on for a bit longer.  I'm
sure Doomsayes will come into their own when their sourcebook comes out.
