Exhaustion Points in Combat Minion

Have you considered adding Exhaustion Points in the Combat Minion software? This could be a big help for GM tracking.

I agree it would be a nice thing to add.

I've never used exhaustion points myself. Thinking about it, the EP could be automatically tallied when attacks are made, as long as there are set rules for how many EP are spent for each type of attack. This I'm not familiar with and would need to refer to the rulebooks. And then of course each set of rules may deal with EP differently. Then there would need to be a way to manually enter EP for actions other than attacks. Then those EP would need to be factored into any (negative) modifiers to attacks/spells/actions.

So I agree it would be nice, but quite a lot of work.

I am not sure how RMC handles Exhaustion but RMSS is 1 EP for every 2 rounds of melee combat or 1 EP for every 6 rounds of ranged combat. As you mentioned, this could be built into the Combat Minion but just having the ability to manually track EP's would be a big help as EP's can impact a PC's total penalty.

Thanks for giving it consideration.
