Oh hang on, just to be sure, if I were to spend two dots on Followers, would I get four dots-worth because of Spider in the Web? Or is it just bonus dice for background tests?

An excellent question, and I think that is what it is going for? It is a bit confusing in how it is phrased, I'm sure Redactula will come around to clarify.

A little of both actually. Say you have 2 dots in followers, instead of having 20 followers you would have 40. Spider in the Web doesn't double your dots it just doubles what you get from them. That includes the amount of dice you have to find minor contacts.

Oh that's not what I was expecting and quite interesting. Hopefully it will inspire people to invest in some of the less used backgrounds instead of the big 4 (Wealth, Holdings, Inheritance and Artifact)

How would that work with Allies then, would they be twice as powerful? That might quickly get out of hand.

So how does that work with Allies then? If I were to put three dots in Allies, I get a pair of three-dot Allies?

Yes that is exactly how it would work. You would get two helpers for the price of one, elite goons as it were.

No they would not be twice as powerful you would just get two for the price of one.

Just to be sure, since Spider in the Web gives additional major contacts, does it also double the dice provided for finding minor contacts? (e.g. Contacts 1 gives 2 dice for searching minor contacts)

Yes it does it is one of my favorite things about the Mastermind.

Clarified how the aid another works in “always watching”. Thanks DVSS for bringing this to my attention.
