R. Taslorian Games has recently produced a new paper RPG called Fuzion,
which is a merging of the Hero System and the system used by Cyberpunk
2020.  The core rules for the system are available on their web site, as
both web pages and an Adobe Acrobat file.  Although it doesn't have 
anything resembling the full breadth of Hero's power system, it may give
you a taste of what it's like.  You can check it out at:
