The Magitek Armor Racial Template totals 81 points, not 91.

For the Burning Attack, I don't know if it's because I'm rounding the +3 incorrectly (going by memory) but I get 59 points, not 60. I'm assuming 7d+3 is (7.75 x 5 =) 39 points, +150% in modifiers gives (58.5, rounded to) 59.

In total it's therefore worth (81 + 59 =) 140 points.

So at your listed $432/point, that's $60,480 as its base retail price.

As you mentioned, you'd then multiply by rarity (x2) and TL factors (x4), so fair retail price for the setting would be ($60,480 x 2 x 4 =) $483,840.

Not at all! I threw this together really fast this morning while trying to get centered. I've edited it above.

Hmmm. Cost might be off a bit: For the TL, it's $60/point. So 60 x 0.9 (BCM) = $54/point. There are no modifiers so now it's $54 x 2 (rarity) = $108/point. Now we multiply for TL: $108/point x 4 = $432/point. So that's right - it was the point value that was off.
