Stress - make it a party pool instead of individual?

I am rebranding HP as heroic points (and I might change that, not quite happy. heroic sounds... righteous? I accept ideas).

What I am considering is going Masks style and make it a party pool instead of an individual pool. At any moment in time, there is a number of HP any player can draw from to improve their rolls, reduce harm and so on.

Thoughts?

I think it's an interesting idea, what happens when they run out of points?

I have been thinking about it since yesterday and maybe there could be "heroic moves". available to all when HO is 0. Maybe very dramatic stuff too.

Oh like self sacrificing, or sort of All or Nothing time things?

"When you have nothing left to loose..."
"When you put everything on the line..."

I absolutely love this. Moves you use when you're completely beaten up and your friends are too, and everyone is in grave peril and someone may try some desperate moves to protect the party - even at a high personal cost!

I'll work on this for the next iteration since now I just wanna have the thing out. I love it!
