computer link pricing

[secretID]

5e, if that matters.

 

I'm trying to price a link a player is buying. Didn't quite do an exhaustive search, but I can't find a single published character with a link.

 

It's a modern-day standard campaign - 350 points. The link is to all US Telecom companies. He would have full access to all billing information, and an advantage for hacking various things (like call history).

 

Thanks in advance.

You could just make the Company a contact.

 

Here is what 6E comptuer link gives as exampele values:

"For example, a Computer Link to a local police, government, or corporate computer system might cost 1-3 points; similar national or federal systems, 4-6 points;"

 

Also I think "Police powers" could inlcude access to such information among others, so it should be lower than an equal range Police Powers perq.

Thanks - that's very helpful.

 

I hadn't thought of comparing it to a contact. That way, it would have to be VERY expensive - over 10 points. So as not to overthink it, I'll just go with 6, which looks like the top of the link range.
