Would You Allow.....?

Inspired by Enforcer84's recent "How to build a Supergenius" thread, I got to

thinking and was wondering if any of those who GM would allow the following

in their campaigns:

 

"Insight Of The Genius" : 3D6 Luck - Only usable for gaining insightfull

solutions to tech and/or science related issues

 

Basically, it's a mental equivalent of Combat Luck (or at least, my personal

interpretation of Combat Luck).....

 

Thoughts ?

Re: Would You Allow.....?

 

I'd allow something like it, but I'm not sure how useful it would be. Would depend a lot on the rest of the character.

 

I mainly use the "count Normal Damage BODY to figure out how many re-rolls you get per session" method for Luck. If you have a truly massive INT (38+), you're probably not going to fail that many rolls unless there are stiff penalties. In that case, having those re-rolls may not be useful very often.

 

If your super genius only has an 18 INT or so, needing re-rolls is going to come up a lot more often.

 

Of course, it seems every GM I know runs Luck a different way, so that might not matter for an individual game.
