I use three tricks to make sure Hero Points are flowing at my tables:
- Keep Hero Points visible. For in-person games (good times!), use physical tokens. For online games, keep a "Hero Point" token of image visible if you can (I use a post-it in my monitor!)
- Put up a timer. Every top of the hour, it is hero-point time and everybody gets one. It is kinda bland, but gets the job done. Or...
- I let people get a Hero Point every time they draw from the Critical Fumble deck. Some people love it, and will get themselves bruised and broken to get those hero points, while some other players avoid it, but it is their choice.
