:> under the point based rules in the companion (3rd edition) is there
:any
:> rule against taking things like resources or Full mage more than once?
:> I know doing so violates the spirit of the rules and game. But it is
:> directly a literal violation?
:>
:> From what I can find it is not ever expressly stated.

:Well, as far as I know, you can only choose among the Race, Resource, and
:Magic Sections once. I suppose there really aren't any rules enforcing
this,
:but almost all GMs, I believe, would understand their purpose and enforce
:them as such.


The points are a replacement fot the proiority costs. You still follow
the normal SR3 character creation process (pp. 54-64), which allows you only
1 choice at each stage.

:However, I can imagine GMs letting players choose among the Resources to
:paste together an amount that they really need. Like 405,000K, instead of
:bumping yourself up to 650,000K.


Hmm, so If I take 500 more than 1,000,000, (for 1,000,500) its 30-5%
points? And I can take the "extra" 500¥ 10 or 20 times, right, since
that's the amount of cash I need? 8^)
