What is a Refresh rate?

It is the rate at which characters recover fate points.

See, fate points are a resource in the FATE RPG system. You spend them to get to do certain things. Every session or so, you fill  your fate point pool up to a certain point, which is your refresh rate. If your refresh is 10 and you ended last session with only 5, you start the session with 10. However, if you ended last session with 12, you keep the 12 and refresh doesn't affect you.

Tush Hog:
Gotcha, thanks!

It'll function a little differently from the SOTC model in DFRPG, but that's a good approximation. :)

Are you doing the, "It's what you get per session, period," version? That's how they seem to be using it in Starblazers.
