It's a lot like Chaos in the Old World, only instead of corruption it's a simpler territory holding mechanic with gates. And instead of a single-action upgrade system, it's 6 separate conditions.
I prefer it to CitOW. No random sink or swim card draws, and you get to play with <i>all</i> the upgrades instead of the 1-3 max you ever saw in Chaos.
Three power is not a bad price for three doom points, @NotoriusBEN, but I'll probably hold off on getting that particular spellbook for at least the first round. Three power is quite a big bonus this early.

There's also no move 2 space for 2 power. You can move any number of units for 1 power each, but they can only move once per action. So, normally only 1 space.
Lethargy is definitely stronk, but Sleeper has some significant weaknesses to make up for it. As others have noted, Sleeper has to pay a significant amount of power to get spellbooks, and perhaps more significantly, has no special abilities that GAIN power. Also, Sleeper 's monsters kind of suck.
I had the same reaction! I usually see a cultist moved.
Edit: the cultist gives you the option to build a gate, I suppose, though it seems like most people use desecration in any case, so it wouldn't make much difference!
Maybe we also want to declare the specific action taken to clear up confusion around things like Flight. I'm sure there will be other occurrences of actions that will make people think "Hey, you can't do that." If it's something special you can do, try and indicate it in some way until everyone is more familiar with the different factions.

That being said, as a fan of Sleeper, it’s not as powerful as I wish it would be.
Edit: For those that haven’t read “all the things”, it’s a Tsathoggua thing. Sleeper has to have their GOO in play.

The Yssaril were considered massively imbalanced in Twilight Imperium for being able to stall every other turn.
- They have to respond to threats from other players
- They usually only have a modest amount of power
- Three of their spell books require them to give up 3 power
You'll see.Shouldn't that cost 2 power, since the cultist is moving 2 spaces?

Mistakes are part of the CW experience.
On a different note, I could really screw Opener over this round, but I don't want to make an enemy of @MrBody.
I'll make do, whatever.
