Rank System brain dump

Hmmm. Power atrophy during an era shift would be very interesting.

And it would totally make sense with an appropriate shift upwards at regular intervals.

That, however, very quickly marginalizes the ability to keep a cap on "power creep," which, to me, is probably the most attractive feature of the system. Being able to say "you can only blow up a car" doesn't mean much when, every three months what you can explode gets bigger and bigger.

This is simply a situation where the writing would have to explain the mechanics instead of the mechanics explaining themselves.
