The reason why I wanted a good baseline for conversion of X times a scene is that many powers in this game (Dark Burst, Fire Breath, Warp Step to name a few) have this limitation. This keeps the players from being able to spam their abilities. Upon further consideration, I think that 15 second recharge might work, but I want to know what the hivemind thinks the discount for Recharge: ~5 minutes should be.

The ER that I'm trying to work with is for the Kobolds. I'm trying to set it up so they have a pool of extra FP, but need to pay HP to gain access. ER sounds like it would work the best.

Yes, the 7th edition is part of the joke (though I maintain that the real joke is that this is a decent and playable game) He's actually on revision 1.5 for the core book, last time anyone heard from him.

One of the main reasons I'm converting to GURPS is so that I won't need to spend a ton of time converting stuff to DtD. Also because the ship-building and wealth/signature gear is pretty screwed up.

If you guy's want, I can post what little conversion I have right now.
