If not, then don't fix what ain't broke.Fact is I would vave called the system the Base Unit Coin one--BUC, but that's a part of a different game system now... Furthermore, the $ is very familiat to the majority of FRPG participants who read in English, so it should facilitate thinking in such terms where the GM chooses to apply the system.From the base of the monetary system, it is easy to manage inflation or depression in areas, calculate taxes and exchange fees. etc.A am quite at a loss to deal with objections that claim some historical or other basis, because if any adjustments are desired, the $ system allows that easily. Adjust the base annual income line downwards, keep proces as they are, and lo and behold! The populace has barely enough to keep from starving.Anyway, as I said, the main book covering this is yet to come, the one dealing with everyday life. power, government, and the SECs in an advanced and other societies. I'll return to this topic some month or two after that work has been released and try again for some input <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Cheers,Gary</blockquote>
