Re: The Luck Advantage
How about a version of luck advantage that lets you use it ONLY a certain number of times, EVER?
I was thinking of using it as a cheaper way for a cat to have 9 Lives. |

Re: The Luck Advantage
There's an option like that in Power-Ups 5: Impulse Buys, where you set aside a pool of character points to spend in play (on things like Buying Success, Player Guidance, Flesh Wounds, etc). Now, you normally don't need to set aside points, and can just use any unspent points, but that's how I'd handle the "Nine Lives" situation.

Re: The Luck Advantage
Even for non-Game Time Luck, it ought to be possible to Enhance one's way to getting X uses per expected X-hour-length session, instead of by-the-clock uses. Personally, I think +50% Cosmic might do the trick, there.

Alternatively, there's a rule in GURPS Supers that says that a one-use-ever trait has its cost reduced to 1/5. That's not the same as a -80% Limitation, because it's meant to be able to stack with Limitations. Apply that to Luck, and you get 3 CP per use, or about 2.5 CP/use for Aspected Luck. Which, to be honest, strikes me as badly overpriced. |
