[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 5792412, member: 2011"] No, it's the only similar mathematical model that we can look at to form a baseline. If you look closer, you'll see that although I based my (rather primitive) examples above on a similar system which is not 4E. But without a detailed mathematical model, we can talk about this until we are blue in the face and assumptions about how it works are merely that, assumptions. It might work, but who's to say that it is even needed? Again, you are making assumptions here about how a different system will work. I'm not convinced it will work they way you are assuming and I'm not convinced that any sort of correction (fate points, or anything else) is even needed. So, if you have something concrete to back up a position that something else is needed, please post it. Don't just assume that something is needed because as we have seen repeatedly with game systems, the proof is in the pudding, not in the recipe.
