I'll note that's effectively how we treated it in Delvers to Grow, with several points worth of Points-for-Cash being listed in the Advantages statline for the example templates.

I don't see it listed as an option in the advantages section of GCS for Delvers to Grow, so did as others have suggested and just made a new advantage to account for the point difference. Unless I'm missing something?

The GCS files came long after the draft was done. Kevin cobbled together his own GCA5 inputs, and we listed the cash-for-points on the print version.

I did not act fast enough for any option, but I'm looking forward to the book!

The Standard Henchmen are my favorite levels of DF heroes (from the GURPS line, sorry), but I have high hopes here too.

I believe the book is out for sale already at Doug's storefront.
