Anyone thinking of replacing “+Power” as a stat? I’ve gone entire sessions where it’s rolled once, or zero times, because most wrestlers don’t use it.
I was thinking of replacing it with a broader synonym, like +Force, where you can use moves like:
“MAKE ME”:
When you use the threat of physical noncompliance to get what you want, roll +Force. On a 10+, you get what you want and take one momentum, on a 7-9, you get it but choose 1:
-Someone Bigger ain’t happy about it
-Your actions are misinterpreted by people not there;
-You get booked in a segment that makes you look stupid.
.
imo that move would absolutely work with +Power
If nobody is playing Monster or Giant, yeah, Power can be underutilized for sure.
Some of the supplement stuff is going to give more Power more cool stuff to do (alongside Work, which is similarly underserved IME).

That’s why I said synonyms. But it’s much easier to imagine a smaller wrestler having “Force” than Power (which could mean electricity, strength, political capacity, etc etc). And an act of Strength could be relative.
