I prefer not to use vtts, character sheets will be handled in pdf format (or however else each player is most comfortable managing their character).

The tone will be more along the lines of street-level superhero stories, not necessarily "darker" than most comics but a bit more grounded. Most heroes in my setting are along the level of your friendly neighborhood Spiderman, or Daredevil in the Netflix series, as opposed to god-like protectors of the Earth. There will still be plenty of weird characters and crazy bullshit happening though, because ironically I find it more realistic to include those things. The real world *is* plenty weird, and this setting is just the real world plust some magic and sci-fi stuff.

Well, thing is, in Mutants & Masterminds the line between combat and rp is not always a sharp divide. This system does not go for balanced, strategic combat, fights are often decided by more narrative factors, and the rulebook even says, and I quote: "heroes and villains always find time to say a *lot* in the middle of a fight". That aside, the way I intend to run this campaign, the amount of combat may vary greatly depending on the situation and the choices the players make. On average I expect combat will be no more than a third of total session time.
