GM Special Page:EBH

Equipment Based Heroes come in many shapes and sizes. There are basically two kinds of EBH, those who create and utilize their own technology, and those who rely on current technology. The former will be referred to as Gadgeteers, while the latter will be Weapon Masters.

Some character generation guidelines:

Gadgeteers may make field modifications to their gadgets at a (minimum)-2 Gadgeteering roll regardless of whether this would normally be allowed. These mods normally only last for the current scene, but may be incorporated into the gadget if points are paid appropriately.
Weapon Masters may purchase a pool of standard equipment (VPP) which may be distributed per adventure in real cost, but with no regard to Active Cost limits. All equipment purchased this way must be readily available in the real world.
