	Make up your own rules ... These rules are only a framework 
	for your imagination. .... There are two important rules of 
	thumb to remember when it comes to breaking, changing or 
	ignoring these rules. First, maintain the spirit and intent 
	of the game. ... Second, be consistent.

Why Gamma Hero?

   I really love the old classic GAMMA WORLD setting, but I think that 
the HERO SYSTEM rules are far more flexible. So, I thought I'd convert 
a great old game to a better game system to improve and expand upon the
play of an old nostalgaic favourite. In short, a great setting matched 
with a better rules system. 

   However, converting one game system to another is not an exact 
science! In general, one has to be willing to change some things from
the original game in doing a conversion. Or why even bother converting?
If you like the original game 'as it is' you'd just play it 'as it is'. 

   In converting one game system to another, one is simply trying to 
maintain the feeling and keep the things that you like and improve 
upon (or eliminate) the things that you don't like. Thus, conversion 
is as much interpretation (subjective) as it is conversion (objective). 

   One has to find the balance between the two systems that suits their 
own style; naturally, these notes describe mine but, hopefully, you'll 
find something of value herein...
