Points for Equipment

[Lord Hobie]

Steve,

If I'm running a superheroic campaign and want to keep things point-balanced, do all characters in the campaign (including normals, 75-pointers, etc.) have to pay points for normal equipment (including firearms), or just those characters who are built on superheroic-level point totals?

Thanks!

Well, ultimately that's up to you as GM. In our published works, we have lower-point characters (like VIPER agents) pay for their equipment with Character Points, just to keep things consistent. But you certainly don't have to do it that way if you prefer some other method.
