Lessons Learned

  • Dealing with shadowy organizations can have great benefits and great prices as well.
  • Sometimes you should shoot to kill.
  • Even a fairly non-combat Nova can do some serious damage with the right powers.
  • Being nice to people often has good results later.
  • There are many problems a relative pittance of money can solve.
  • You need to take care of your teammates.
  • I have an important role in the team even with everyone else around.
  • Baselines are relatively harmless, deal with them less harshly.
  • There are those who do not wish to accept your help, for they do not understand. Show them why their logic is flawed.
