With it settling in at 2 in favor of power points and 4 ambivalent i will go with Power Points as I like the artificer rules and would think they could come in handy.

For humans who have Magic and Psioncis the two power point pools will have separate tallies like in Rifts.

So,
It turns out they are not even going to bother making artifacts compatable with No Power Points.

Does that affect any one's votes?
