nWoD: the transition from table-top to MU*
-
@Groth I don't know that I like an implementation where one person screwing up could cripple a number of people for that long. It might be more realistic but from a gameplay point of view... a month?
Especially since it could happen by mistake (typo!) or someone could be a newbie to the system or... whatever.
Another scenario: I log on when your coterie is not around, go to your neighbohood and drink to my character's dark heart content. Yummy, and now your pool is depleted for weeks.

The fight for food is tedious. If I wanted to do that, I would set Fallout 3 to the appropriate level, and just play that.
The fight for influence can be exciting, but you would have to have a system for it that takes into account the vagaries and complexities that such political battles demand.
I can't think of anything worse than a +hunt code, and I say this with the experience of being on such games.

A single -1 penalty is hardly crippling. However if you want to deliberately cripple a rivals blood pool by repeatedly draining it for the stacking penalty you can certainly do that. However they can also investigate who drained their blood pool and pay you a visit.
