Re: [DL] Old School Hucksters



It is possible to "reverse engineer" the points.  Take each hex you have, 
and determine thier cost.  Don't forget the arithmetic progression to buy 
them if you advanced the hex after character creaction.  Then, using these 
points buy the new hexes.  3-pts for "original character hexes" and 5-pts 
for the rest.

You will have points left.  Use these to buy your hexslinging skill.  Please 
do not forget this!

As a rule we said that I could get Hexslingin' at the starting cost - up to 
the highest level in all of my hexes.  The rest would have to be bought the 
expensive way.

It helps if you know what hexes you started with, and what you accquired 
along the way.  Still, if you follow the strict rules in H&H, you know which 
ones you fought tooth and nail to learn.

Funnily enough, the points practically balanced out for me.  I think I ended 
up with 2 points extra.  Of course, I now have a 5 in all those hexes.  The 
extra points went to a new hex.

what we did was use the Highest Hex Level as Hexslingin' score, and let them 
keep all their Hexes at that score.  We still used the same die types for 
them as the trait they are connected to.
