Re: Sizes about Ships and others (monsters and the like)

I believe Shadow of the Spider Moon used 'Awesome' as the size larger than
Colossal. 'Awesome' is also the size category used in Mutants and
Masterminds which happens to be Open Content.

I'm personally in favor of redoing ship sizes for the people who use them
like they've done for weapons however. If I'm an elf, getting into a flitter
I want to say that its a 'small' ship rather than being a 'large' ship..
which it isn't.
