Designer's Notes:
1) Spector paid 30 points to have his 6 Speed. This is fine, until we see he has Normal Characteristic Maxima. His 6 Speed now costs 50 points. On top of his, he paid 20 points for his 15 REC. Taking Normal Characteristic Maxima into account this becomes 30 points.
2) Spector's rifle is presented exactly it was in the original text. Much like Godfather's submachine gun, it's not based on any real weapon I know of, and Autofire combined with only 15 shots seems remarkably useless.
3) Spector's Teleportation Device was rebuilt to conform 5th Edition. No defense was given to the Useable As Attack Advantage, while it was originally listed as being able to teleport x6 human mass, which is impossible under the rules.
4) Yes, Spector's Desolidification is vulnerable to ... Energy Blast. I kid you not.
5) Originally, Spector paid 8 points for his +2 with rifle. The errata sheet states that this is meant to be +4 OCV with his assault rifle. He many not have a lot of shots, but he sure can make them count.
6) Fixed the point values for all Disadvantages. I'd like to point out that nothing in his origin or personality explains his Vulnerability. In fact, his Psychological Limitations argue against it.
7) The original version of Spector cost 400 points. He now costs 391, a 9-point decrease.
8) Assessment: Let's start at the top. Spector has a 6 SPD, and Normal Characteristic Maxima. Why? One or the other has to go. Personally, I say the 6 SPD, as his origin doesn't support it. In addition note that 15 REC. Why? (Want to know why? So Spector can use the Teleportation Device more than once or twice a battle). Spector's Teleport should be based on an END Reserve, not his personal END.
As a side note, the text talks about how Spector will use "his weapons" but prefers his assault rifle. Note they don't list anything else but his rifle on the sheet. I also point out that Spector may belong to the Serbian Liberation Force, but I doubt it's initials are SLF.
