Changing damage progression and price of ST - Page 2

I thought I would try out making swing damage less all-overshadowing. Changing it so that sw = thr+2. At normal ST this makes thrust a viable alternative to swinging. AT TL 0-4, how should that change the price of ST? I've looked at PU:9 and couldn't find anything about how changing basic damage changes the value of ST.

I'm thinking reducing Striking ST to 1 or 2 points per level - it's arguably overpriced anyway compared to Innate Attack. That makes ST cost 6 or 7, which seems reasonable.

What does the Hive Mind think?
