Doing math off the cuff, to get over 186,000 miles per second from 20mph, you only need about 8 levels of Booster. 20 mph is .33 miles per minute, or a little under .005 miles per second. To go from 5*10^-3 to 2*10^5 is only 8 orders of magnitude, which would require 8 levels of Booster, I think.
Unless doing math in my head is not the most accurate way to get results, in which case I might be completely wrong.

Though it was just clarification since I'll hopefully be running a game in this system soon, and one of my players is wanting to do a speedster. Not to that level but in case he ever decided to go that route, or I want to throw a faster speedster at him as a nemesis. Thanks for the reply, really like this system.--

As a heads up I am being a bit pedantic with this but either I'm missing something or at the very least just trying to understand the reasoning. I understand each level of Booster multiplies the capacity by 10, so two levels of Booster would multiply 100, three by 1000 etc. What is confusing me is actually the table illustrating scale, and the stated levels of Booster needed to reach the speed of light with a Miracle with 4 - 6 dice as its dice pool. The stated speed at 4 dice in a power is 20 yards per round, which equates to 20 mph. Thirteen levels of Booster, as it is on the table, shoots the speed well beyond what light actually travels at. Like I said, I'm being pedantic but I'm just trying to understand how it's meant to be thirteen, as even 1 die in a Miracle requires only nine levels to get it past the speed of light.Shane Ivey, Arc Dream Publishing
