marcusxbaer Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 I know how Resource points work, but could I use them to buy things from gadgets and gear or is that a special condition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombrown803 Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 the points are a pool for specific type of things. a equipment pool could be used for gadgets and gear, but one designed for contacts/favors couldn't be Ninja-Bear 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greypaladin_01 Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 Also at least in the heroic level there are limits to the type of gear you can 'buy' that you have to pay points to unlock. Otherwise you are limited to items that you collect during adventure and put back in your locker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloppy Clip Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 I'm away from my books at the moment, but do Resource points work the same way as equipment meaning you'd be limited to the sorts of things anybody could reasonably buy in a setting? Because, if so, it might help to think about how you envision the setting, marcusxbaer. If it makes sense to you that a given thing from Gadgets and Gear would be available for anybody with the right access to buy then it would be valid for your Resource points. This way you can adapt the rules to different settings as needs be. Hope I've understood the question correctly, and apologies if not!

In my superhero campaign, certain things can be bought with RPs, and others can't. For example, if you want an unstable uniform, or a costume with a limited amount of armor, I typically allow players to buy them with RPs (which I've renamed Gear Points in my game).
