Some of the pictures are from FC2e, such as the classic Centurian vs. First off, FC3e is bigger; almost 60 more pages. Unlike my reviews of previous sourcebooks in the line, I can also tell you how this one compares to the second edition, since I have read both. Latest posts by Linda Whitson see all. Even some supers that were historical figures as far back as FC2e still got 3e stats, if only to serve as examples for similar PCs. Overall, FC3e is rated Must-Have by me.

[Green Ronin] Freedom City, Second Edition PDF Available Now
Masherminds is plenty of useful material for GMs and players. Understandably, given the existence of Hero High and Cosmic Handbook sourcebooks, there is relatively little on Claremont Academy and space stuff.
I loved the latter so much, I mazterminds it as the featured image above. I refer to them as FC3e and FC2e here. They are some of the best, if you need ideas. A lot of the new history and backstory material comes from extending the Earth-Prime timeline, which ended in in FC2e, up through —but not all of it!
On the other hand, FC3e does include sidebars with templates meant to be used to make characters with certain backgrounds.
The following two tabs change content below. The book is also organized differently—many things have been moved around, and some information that was in FC2e sidebars is incorporated into the main text.
Astral Projections – Review of Freedom City Third Edition (Mutants & Masterminds 3e) – d20 Radio
The villain Psion mutatns barely gets a mention in the Atom Family section, in fact. At least as entertaining as the Emerald City book. Overall, FC3e is rated Must-Have by me.
But, adding to the sense of history, others are new, including legacy characters. My favorites are Daedalus trying to save Icarus heartbreaking and the WWII era Liberty League, which was done to mssterminds like a comic panel printed on a s press. Another thing that impressed me was the artwork, in varying comic book styles.
First off, FC3e is bigger; almost 60 more pages. No great loss to me, as I never found the Psions or their nemeses the Atom Family that interesting. Some familiar faces no longer have stats, however.
The DNAscent Process is an example of the latter.

Freedom City Map PDF – Mutants & Masterminds
The Colonial to time period is where there is the most repetition, but the writers still provide some new material, as opposed to retconning. Unlike my reviews of previous sourcebooks in the line, I can also tell qnd how this one compares to the second edition, since I have read both. Even some supers that were historical figures as far back as FC2e still got 3e stats, if only to serve as examples for similar PCs.
There is some repetition of material, mostly city history and backstories of characters and organizations—but there is more new mutanst these areas than I expected.
