Re: Link House Rule
A +10% link is worth points because it lets you do two things at once. It doesn't cause both abilities to break if one does, though. It just means that if both are currently working, you must use both. As a concrete example, with "good" and "bad" considering the state of two advantages relative to the usual rules for one advantage:
Switchable Invisibility and Insubstantiality as alternative abilities: You can only turn on one or the other; you can never have both on (bad). If one is shut down, the other is as well (bad).
Switchable Invisibility and Insubstantiality just sitting there, separately: You must turn on one, and then the other; while you can have both on, it always takes two seconds to get there (bad). If one is shut down, the other is fine.
Switchable Invisibility and Insubstantiality with Link, +10%: You can turn on both in just one second (good). You must switch on one to switch on the other (bad). If one is shut down, the other is fine – switching on both merely switches on the one that's still fine.
Switchable Invisibility and Insubstantiality with Link, +20%: You can turn on either or both in just one second (good). If one is shut down, the other is fine.
