Godlike in pdf!



I picked up GODLIKE: Superhero Roleplaying in a World on Fire, 1936-1946 by Dennis Detwiller & Greg Stolze in pdf. I already have it in hardback but I wanted the convenience of a pdf plus the revisions and the additional material in the pdf.   

"At the dawn of World War II, a handful of people called "Talents" manifested strange powers that set them apart from the rest of humanity. With these powers man took to the air without mechanical aid, explored the depths of the sea without life support, and touched the rim of space.
To others, Talents seemed godlike in their power. Only the Talents themselves, pushed to the front lines of every battle, knew the truth — that these newfound powers seemed pointless in the face of death.
That their power set them apart from family, friends and enemies.
That it made them more, and yet somehow less.
These fears, like the power that feeds them, are godlike in their scope."
I believe that this is the first rpg to use the One-Roll Engine (ORE).
