In the vein of "Starstruck" and "Immortal Contempt", I'd like to see more keyword-based feats and ATAs. The theme team bonus is nice, but it doesn't make a Metropolis team stand out from a Gotham one. So here are some ideas. I only did generic keywords, not the bazillion team keywords that I'm sure will eventually have ATAs. I did two Scientist feats, and could probably think of a billion more. The point costs I'm really not sure about. Also, I didn't really know what to do with Opal City, so I left some question marks and maybe somebody can help me out...

10 squares is a bit much. 8 squares has become the new standard. I'd stick with that.

As a fan of speedsters, I dig the Home of the Flash, but I'd give it some tweaks:

Home of the Flash
Keyword(s): Central City and/or Keystone City.

Modify this character's speed value by +1. When this character is within 8 squares of a friendly character that possesses the Central City or Keystone City keywords and can use Hypersonic Speed, modify this character's defense value by +1.

Agreed/done (for some). Some heroes inspire from afar, others by their presence.

Briefly thought of a separate feat, then saw that there are only 2 figs in the game with the Keystone City keyword.

some neat ideas you got going here. I would want to see point vlaues though.

Done. Not sure about them, though.
