A little question of logistics, how does one convert a character made
partly with (GURPS 3rd ED) Vampire the Masquerade to to GURPS 4th ED.

The disciplines are the problems I am considering, as the rest of GURPS
isn't to hard to move from one to another, but how about things like
Vicissitude (GURPS Vampire The Massquerade Companion VTMc117) etc. 

The simple augmenting disciplines (Celerity VTM101, Fortitude VTM103, &
Potence VTM105) probably aren't to much of a challenge, it is a limited
increase with may or may not need an activation trigger whihc taks
energy/blood to limit the number of uses).  That shouldf be able to be
worked out though I would be very happy if somebody was to post there
opinion on the 4th ED mechanics of Fortitude).

The more complex to decide, and I am thinking woud need to be done power
at a time are the other displines. The example I was wanting was
Vicissitude, how much would cost, and what would be the 4th Ed
mechanincs for the likes of Changeling, Flesh/bone craft, Horrid Form
(just a second form?) and Inner Essence. Can these be reworked using
GURPS Powers and still in aprox the same cost scale, or are they just
going to be lots more costly?

Opinions, examples?

(Any word on if they will bother with a 4th ED Masquerade? While it is
mainly a setting, there are some mechanics which would be nice to be
formailised)

Max.
