Default Re: About Draining disadvantage for fatigue

First, to make Draining work on FP you could borrow the limitation from Weakness for Fatigue Only. That's -50%. In GURPS Proper substituting FP for an ER is generally a -0% trait. So "ER Only" would be worth -50% on Draining

I'd half the base cost for 1 HP/FP/ER and increase it by 50% for 3 points instead of 2.

And make the character to fall unconscious if it's ER is empty.
Yes. But it's complicated. You'd need to use a mitigator on the disadvantage itself. Then figure out when that disadvantage comes into effect. If you gain the disadvantage at 1/2 ER gone then it's worth -40% as a limitation, if it's at 0 ER gone then it's worth -60%.
