All,
Are there any extra limitations for a focus that takes additional time
to put on (say, power armor), or is that factored into the cost of
having an Obvious Inaccessible Focus? I'm thinking that a Jetpack is an
OIF, but is less inconvenient to don and to remove than a suit of power
armor, which might take several minutes to put on by yourself (tho only
a turn for a foe to remove, so as to not abuse the normal limits of
taking a focus from a foe).
I just didnt know if the "hassle" of taking a whole minute to suit up
made OIF worth more than just -1/2, or it thats just part of the points
you get in that -1/2 already, or if the book states it somewhere (I
have 5th edition revised) specifically or what?

<shrug> Given that the armor isn't any slower to put on than any
other superhero costume really you are supposed to ignore that
problem.

The "Real Armour" limitation might be a good way to represent what you
want. It's used to represent armour that must be maintained and cared for.
Easy enough to add on a rider that it also takes time to put on.
