• start at essentially PS 20+2D6 (or 27+2D6 minimum, assuming you started at PS 21) from Extraordinary PS
• add 2D4+20 from Superhuman PS
• add 2D6+30 from Supernatural [note: I do not subscribe to the idea that physical skills don't increase Supernatural PS, as even The Thing & She-Hulk would work out]
• Puts your PS range at 76-102 (83-109+)

Obviously, the carry/lift limits are based on the strongest (no punch intended) power you have, so you could theoretically stack them all.

That being said, I would not recommend doing that, as it uses up a lot of powers (2 minor & 1 major) unless you get the power automatically (i.e. as an alien race).

Can a character have/possess Extraordinary P.S., Superhuman P.S. & Supernatural P.S. just wondering?
Answer: It would be up to the G.M.'s discretion to allow a character to possess more than one of the super-type strengths. Usually, the character just gets the better of the types·

*Extra-Ordinary PS - when punching, kicking, etc... add 1 die/dice to the damage based on the attack. A 1d4 punch become 2d4 [plus PS damage bonuses], a 2d6 kick becomes 3d6, etc...

*Superhuman PS - when punching, kicking, etc... add 2 die/dice to the damage based on the attack. A 1d4 punch become 3d4 [plus PS damage bonuses], a 2d6 kick becomes 4d6, etc....

I do this because it is possible, though rare, for a normal, non-powered person to get a similar PS score as a EO or SH PS person. This gives the super a little bit of edge. Been runnin it this way in my games for awhile and it has worked out.

I'd come up with some SDC punch damage tables for Extraordinary & Superhuman PS a long time ago (possibly back in the days of the Email List). I think DustinM has it on his site...
