One of the best sessions i have had for 'gaining extra force points' was the final battle in a 'king of the hill' competition between our sector rebel group and 7 other teams from all the other sectors... BUT the empire had to go and interviene. Our 'team' had taken 3 of 8 casualties when the empire launched their ambush on us. After three more rounds we were down to myself and our medic (who was rolling like crazy for her damage avoidance). I went through all 5 force points i had called shooting the enemies weapons (as all i had was a simple pistol and my trademark vibro daggers)... Since it was cause of my actions we were not all captured, AND the imperial leader fled screaming "there is a madman here, send all available units to assist" like a little girl, i got 1 FP bonus just for that, 5 from the use of the FP in the combat and 1 bonus on top of all that for my jumping in the way three times in the final round before i took the last 4 stormies down.
The suckt thing was, after we were going over all my paperwork, we had figured out i could not have spent those 5 force points as i should have had only 4 coming into the session. so rather than getting all those back, i just got 5 back.. those 2 bonus went to 'buy off' the screwup...

We ended up with an unwritten houserule that limited a character to gaining 1 additional FP per adventure.
Otherwise it can get too easy to "double up" on Force Points by spending a lot at the "dramatically appropriate moment".
"Luke, at that speed, will we be able to pull out in time?"
"Yup, and we'll get another Force Point, too!"
"Sweet!" |

So have I. The rules even suggest that not every character should even have a dramatically appropriate moment in every adventure, so it certainly makes sense to not allow more than one FP-upping moment for onie character in an adventure.

The most i have seen someone gain 'extra' was 8 points. And that was when fighting a dark adept along with the high inquisitor he was with... Unfortunatly they did not retrieve the inquisitors prisoner they were out to try and free.
