Strength Cost in High and Ultra Tech Campaigns

Captain Joy · 02-09-2016, 10:54 AM

I'm considering lowing the character point cost of ST in my Star Trek campaign. But generally, how do people feel about reducing the cost of ST in campaigns where high strength is not so valuable? If you think repricing ST for such campaigns is a bad idea, why? If you think it's a good idea, what changes can you recommend.

My impression is that the sweet spot for the RAW cost of ST is Dungeon Fantasy type campaigns, but that there should be a campaign-switch-type alternate pricing for high tech and ultra tech campaigns within which damage dealing is rarely accomplish though muscle powered weapons.
