Alright an example as I am clearly explaining badly. . . . say I'm shopping for gear at TL 3 starting wealth
I have a finite resources (money), and a list of things to buy with that money (say Basic Set items)

How I spend my 1000 moneys is my gear loadout.

Now say I'm an RPMist (because I haven't read this book yet, just to illustrate) and have RPM Imagery 8 and Thaumatology 20

I thus have 28 conditional slots to fill

So finite resources are my 28 slots

I need to pick a variety of buffs, heals, attacks and whatnot to fill them. I need to choose between low energy low power easy to cast spells and high energy bigger wallop harder to avoid fumbling spells and such
