Does anyone have an electronic equivalent of the Advantage/Limitation point calculation chart from the 4th Ed book?

I don't know what you mean? You mean a word-processing document or spreadsheet of the values in the chart? Or do you mean a program that would let you input the total advantages and limitations and output the values?

I guess a table would be a better word for it. You'd have power cost on one side of the table, and a row of modifiers on the top. You'd find your cost, and modifier, then where the rows crossed was your adjusted power cost.

Ah, good ol' excel.

Although you might want to round the numbers as the original had ;)

edit: The original also listed the chart in the actual modifiers instead of what you multiply them by (ex: the 1.25 columns on TheEmerged table would actually be titled as 1/4).

Geez, picky picky picky! ;)

The rounding thing (I rounded to 1 decimal place) is a matter of personal taste.

Yup, I IZ PIKY. :)

Heh, and I just copy/paste your chart into Excel and do all my own modifications. Why create from wholecloth when you can steal outright. ;)

Then you might want to drag & drop again, I just modified it to show fractions at the proper value ;)

And I know you meant it as a joke, but I don't consider stuff like this stealing. Easy made, easy go :rolleyes:
