High IQ Talents for Low IQ Characters

[hcobb]

Why is there an IQ requirement for Area Knowledge?

Shouldn't even household cats have some form of this?

Also can we shut down whatever store it is that sells the spears to the Neanderthals? At their IQ level they aren't able to make any spears for themselves.

No, clearly they have whatever they need to make and use what they make and use.

If you need the details you can make something up, and/or get GURPS Ice Age.
