Guys,

Just wondering, are the inventing rules in After the End 2 different than the rules in Campaigns? I have never played a Gadgeteer so I don't really have a great handle on the rules, but I am GMing a game with a Gadgeteer now and we are finding the inventing rules in Campaigns require too much money for our campaign. Basically, we are running a TL2 Monster Hunters game, so the amount of wealth required for inventions is prohibitively high (and he did not want to play a Quick Gadgeteer). After the End does not seem to have the these facilities costs, so I was wondering if sub-standard facilities are rolled into the skill modifiers listed in After the End's invention tables? Or is AtE just a modified system?

Thanks.
