[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 5982929, member: 37579"] Okay, here's the benefit behind how I would like this to work. (Which a "x uses in a pouch" system should.) In adventures near an urban location, where the PCs can rest, buy food, and generally resupply the game plays normally. The wizard might need to drop a little extra gold but this is trivial and it's easily managed by a monthly "upkeep" cost. No changes. Period. Except maybe a wizard might be encouraged to "go gather spell components" as a downtime activity. Where the system comes into play are those situations when the party is out of their element of away from civilization. When they've been on the sea having sailing adventures for a month. When they're exploring the Deep Roads in a forgotten dwarven settlement. When they're trapped in the Shadow Plane trying to rescue a lost soul. When they're lost in the Trackless Desert for a fortnight. Times when you [I]want[/I] resources to run low. And it' nice to have the [I]option [/I]of spell components running out. [/QUOTE]
