About Gestalt: The Hero Within

I was looking through it and noticed this chart of limitations for regional defenders. It gives a bonus based on the area. My question is does this bonus apply across the board or does it apply in one specific part of character generation? The big chart wasn't exactly clear. Thank you.

You probably don't want to have PCs that have all their abilities purchased with this limitation; they'd essentially be useless outside of their region.  I would probably allow few powers bought this way to represent that a given character would be more formidable on his home turf.

 

For example, if I were building Daredevil as the regional defender of Hell's Kitchen, I would buy most of his abilities without the limitation.  And then buy some ocv/dcv, levels with perception, or danger sense that only worked in that region to represent that he is in-tune with that environment.  That way if the adventure happens outside of his region the character can still participate.

 

Of course villains and NPCs can be built to serve the needs of the story.

I got nothing to add.

 

I just wanted to point out that this was without a doubt the best possible answer I think you could have gotten.
