First off, happy D-Day everyone! Last month I was fortunate enough to visit Normandy as well as take a tour with an excellent guide. What an incredible and humbling experience. I'm excited for the d-day supplement for Godlike that focuses on The Day of Days.
Now on to business.
Im building a new power for a godlike TOG character and was looking to bounce ideas off of the experts here. Basically, the talent reaches behind his back and Voila! he pulls out any standard issue US military weapon he thinks of. The weapon itself from that point forward behaves normally. He stores these weapons somewhere unknown and isn't actually creating them, ala Fetch. He can retrieve knives, hand guns, rifles, grenades, SMGs, carbines, and even bazookas. The drawback would be a limit in ammo to whatever the weapon normally is loaded with, unless someone nearby or the PC were carrying extras specifically for that. Also, there would only be 1 of each type of weapon and he would have to load it and put it back behind himself for it to be ready for next time.
Here's what I'm thinking so far:
Instant arsenal (U,R) 3 points/die initially (?)
Perhaps flaws like Shy or Short Duration would be attached, but I've got to talk to the PC about it.
I only gave it Useful and Robust since he'd have to spend a turn pulling out the weapon. I imagine the talent just taking 2 HD to ensure he uses it successfully each turn.
What's the community think? Variations? Cost? Improvements?
Thanks a ton and remember those on D-Day!

That build looks OK to me.
I would love to take that tour myself sometime.

I agree. It's similar to a PC I'm building for Ortona.

A friend of mine went over there a couple of years ago, checking out Normandy as well as some of the World War I battlefields. I was very jealous...
He had some very interesting anecdotes about the people living on the Great War battlefields. For one thing, they're still digging up shells. The woman who owned the B&B he stayed in lost her son to one. Mind you, it was a Mills bomb and he decided he would clean it up (for her small in-house museum) with a grinder. Yeah, heat, sparks, vibrations and almost 100 year old unexploded ordnance don't mix...
