Dresden Files - M&M Style

It fixed a lot of problems with some powers and how things were bought, and it's also nice. Plus power level no longer determines how many ranks in a power you can take (though it still does if the power does damage, as damage rating is still mostly capped by power level, unless you trade off attack bonus for damage bonus).
I highly recommend the second edition.

Argh. So I picked up a copy of Mutants & Masterminds at a bookstore and now realize that it is 1E. Is the 2E version different enough that I should spend even more money, or can I get by with 1E?

If you have a receipt, I would recommend taking the book back and getting the 2nd ed version. Not that 1st edition is bad, per say - but 2nd really improved a lot of things that needed improving. I think it's worth switching, but it's good enough that you could get by with first.
Cheers,

I did manage an exchange -- turns out they had a 2E in the back room!
Now I'm frantically reading. If I can figure M&M out, I may run a short Dresden adventure for my group this weekend. If not, I'll have to default to one of my "house" systems and wing it. ;)
