[QUOTE="Flynn, post: 3639518, member: 1836"] Ever since Grim Tales, I've always been a big fan of using action points to activate abilities that used to be measured in 'per day' increments. Some might feel that it is inappropriate, but I think it gives you control over what you want to do. You must weigh what you are giving up when you use an action point for any reason, and so it gives action points that extra investment into the overall system. I also enjoy 'per session' allotments on Action Points, ala Grim Tales and Spycraft, and I think that addresses the concerns I've seen in Saga about 20th level characters and their limited AP pool... after all, when their APs are gone, how do they get them back? There are no epic rules of play there. Rather than hit that kind of problem, or see similar problems pop up due to a preference for slow advancement, I think that it's just better, IMO, to refresh APs per session. YMMV, Of Course, Flynn [/QUOTE]
