Champions/Hero and GURPS are both point based systems.
A significant difference between them is how the point totals are calculated.
GURPS subtracts the disadvantages from the total. So if you spent 195 points on stats, advantages, perks and skills and -45 points in disadvantages and quirks, you would be a 150 point character. This is the standard 150/40/5 format.
A Hero character with the same points spent would be a 195 point character. The difference is disadvantages are added to the base point pool.
It took a bit too long for me to internalize the difference.
