Message: Jonathan--I'm not one of the copyright holders, but have played and run both games in the Avengers of Justice series and am personally aquainted with the copyright holders. I did want to look at your module. However, google docs has it flagged as requiring your permission to access it. Speculating from experience on Red and Conrad, I suspect that neither of them will have problems with your module, and will be flattered that you asked "permission." Still, the game system is the game system, and is copywritten material, but an adventure is always yours to create. And rules are made to be modified. When Better Games staff ran events at conventions, the pregenerated characters always had the task resolution printed on each character sheet for reference. Printing out the Ref attack/Mixed/mishap tables is always a good idea. I haven't seen your characters, but remember that the basic design concept for Free-Style is minimal rules/maximum storytelling... As you've noted from the rules, the character traits may combine for various in-game effects, but the "HOW" that power works is built into the character concept. As a real-world example of how this works--at one of the first convention-games of Good Guys, I was playing a character named "Dream Master," who's character concept was a psychic dream walker. He has trait "motion" and was able to go anywhere on the battlefield in one round. another character also has trait motion, but his concept was a martial artist. At one point in the mission, the characters had to go to an alternate universe. Dream Master--effectively being a dimension-walker to begin with was able to use his Trait Motion on a Difficult Roll. The Martial Art character was unable to use a single trait to dimension hop, and had to combine other traits to "project his chi" into this other universe (as a Tasking roll.) The key thing is that the rules structure is pretty loose...everything boils down to the single task-resolution chart, so if a player is creative and entertaining 9and logical/reasonable with the powers) give out a reasonable roll.
