Raid Points are spent by the [[storyteller]] to purchase raiders. Each raider has a "cost", or Combat Power, associated with them. Every 1 raid point roughly equates to 1 combat power. For example, if the storyteller has 180 raid points, then it can potentially send out 3 "Warrior" raiders worth 60 combat power each. The combat power of each enemy type can be seen in tables on the [[Raider]] page. Raid points are also used to calculate the extra loot carried by raiders. For an explanation of that system, see [[Raider#Loot|Raider loot]].

Raid Points are spent by the [[storyteller]] to purchase raiders based on Combat Power. The combat power of each enemy type can be seen in tables on the [[Raider]] page. More points to spend mean more enemies that appear. For example, if the storyteller has 180 raid points, then it can send out 3 "Warrior" raiders, worth 60 Combat Power each.

The minimum Raid Points value is 35. The maximum is 10,000. The size of 10,000 Raid Point raids is approximately 250 [[Tribes#Pawns|Tribals]], 100 [[Pirates#Pawns|Pirates]], 66 [[Scyther]]s, or 25 [[Centipede]]s. [[Quest]]s and the storyteller [[Randy Random]] multiply raid size after the point cap is applied; both can allow raids to be larger in size.

Each map and [[caravan]] is calculated mostly independently.  Once a caravan leaves the map tile those colonists and items no longer count towards the Raid Points of the map tile.  Separate colonies have separate and independently calculated Raid Point totals.  The "Adaption Factor" is an exception and is shared across multiple settlements.

A player can view their Wealth by hitting the [[History]] menu and going to the [[History#Statistics|Statistics]] tab. The game considers "Colony Wealth (buildings)" at only 50% for the purpose of calculating Raid Points.  Instead of using "Colony Wealth (this map)", the game uses "Storyteller Wealth". Note that pawns count for their wealth values in addition to their pawn points. Temporary colonists from [[quest]]s count towards neither.

At 14,000 "Storyteller Wealth" and below, there are "0 Wealth Points".  At 400,000 "Storyteller Wealth" there are "2,400 Wealth Points". Between 14k and 400k wealth, every $1 of storyteller wealth increases "Wealth Points" by <code>(2,400 - 0) / (400,000 - 14,000)</code> points.

Between 14k and 400k wealth, points will increase by <code>(2,400 - 0) / (400,000 - 14,000)</code> per wealth. This means that 1 point is worth 160.83 wealth at this threshold.
  
−
At the 14k to 400k threshold, 1 raid point would be worth ~ 160.83 storyteller wealth from wealth points. Wealth also has an impact on pawn points; see below for details.

At 1 million "Storyteller Wealth", and all values over 1 million, there are 4,200 Raid Points. Further wealth has no affect on Raid Points.

"Pawn Points" is a points total given based on your Colonist count, Slaves, Children, Trainable [[Animals]], and player controlled Mechs. Rimworld's code labels these creatures as "pawns." "Pawn Points" is an addition to any points that "pawns" give based on their Market Value via "Wealth Points."  Only free pawns of the player's faction on the map tile count. Prisoners and temporary colonists from other factions (called "Quest Lodgers") do not count towards Pawn Points.

Human pawn points are determined using the following chart. The result may be modified based on a few additional factors.

From 0 to 10,000 "Storyteller Wealth", each full colonist counts for 15 pawn points. At 400,000 "Storyteller Wealth", each colonist counts for 140 points. Between 10k to 400k Storyteller Wealth, each colonist gives <code>15 + [ (140 - 15) * (wealth - 10,000) / (400,000 - 10,000) ]</code> points. This can be simplified into <code>15 + (wealth - 10,000) / (3,120)</code> points per colonist.
+
From 0 to 10,000 "Storyteller Wealth", each Colonist counts for 15 points. At 400,000 wealth, each Colonist counts for 140 points. In between 10k to 400k and 400k to 1 million the points of each Colonist is linearly interpolated between 15 to 140 and 140 to 200 respectively.
−
 
 
−
Between 10k to 400k Storyteller Wealth, every $1 of wealth gives <code>1 / 3,120</code> pawn points ''per effective colonist''. So at the 10k to 400k threshold, 1 pawn point is worth <code>3,120 / (effective colonist count)</code> storyteller wealth.
 
−
 
 
−
Assuming the same 10k to 400k wealth threshold:
 
−
* At 10 healthy colonists, 3,120 storyteller wealth would give 10 raid points through pawn points.
 
−
* At 10 healthy colonists, 1 pawn point would be worth 312 storyteller wealth.
 
−
* Going from 10 to 11 colonists would add <code>15 + (wealth - 10,000) / 3,120</code> raid points.

Remember that storyteller wealth also increases wealth points.

* Health: The Pawn Point value of all applicable pawns, including animals and mechs, is scaled based on their Health Bar.

Dead pawns do not count for pawn points, even when unburied and still showing in the colonist bar.

For example, a colonist with a damaged and bruised leg will displayed a reduced Health bar and thus have reduced Pawn Points. A colonist with a missing leg and no other injuries is considered at "Full Health" and contributes full Pawn Points.

Think of the "Adaption Factor" like the classic workplace sign that says "Days Since Last Injury: 10".  The differences from this analogy to the "Adaption Factor" is that the "Adaption Factor" does not reset entirely on injuries.  Instead, a number of days are subtracted from the total and how many days are subtracted gets quite complicated.  In Rimworld, in this analogy, the sign can read "Days Since Last Injury: Negative 30".  Also, the "Days Since Last Injury" don't necessarily go up 1 per day in Rimworld.
