Summary

How to convert Heroes Unlimited Major Powers to GURPS Advantages. Unlike minor powers, I have not tried to make everything worth the same points cost. Each major power should be worth at least 60 points, however.

Still to be done: See 'Different Gravity' pp 350. Binding & Affliction in high gravity, Flight in low gravity, all as alternative attacks.
