Action Points

Action Points (or AP) is a game mechanic governing the number of things a player can do during one combat turn (in Fallout and Fallout 2) or in the V.A.T.S. mode (in Fallout 3).

Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics
Action Points are spent firing a weapon, reloading a weapon, fetching equipment from one's backpack or moving to a new battlefield hex.

Initial level: The base Action Points of a character is 5 + AG / 2.


 * The Action Boy perk adds 1 AP per rank.
 * The Bonus Move perk adds 2 special AP per rank that can only be used for movement.

There is an upper limit of 10 AP, not counting the move-only points granted by Bonus Move.

Fallout 3
Action Points are used in V.A.T.S. to aim and fire at specific body parts. Action point total is equal to 65+2*Agility. The Action Boy perk adds an additional 25 action points.
