Title: Point buy system
Post by: Lethrendis on <12-21-19/1722:41>

Hi chummers,

I have a question about the authors. I don't like the priority table, the point buy system is much better, i think. Can I use point buy from Run Faster in 6E? What changes, if any?

You could probably work out the math if you wanted to crunch through it. The cost for attributes, qualities, and skill points are much simpler this time around, so the biggest thing IMO would be back-calculating the different priority levels to get a proper starting pool of karma.

Yes. I tried to do some calculations. Based on the priority table, I set the 6E points to 950 karma points, but you only get 1000 nuyens for 1 karma point. But we were hoping to advise the authors of the game.

Nothing official on the matter.

Details about a point buy system might be released in future up-coming supplements.
