So I'm very new to the game and have been trying to understand the purpose of renown. I've browsed through other questions on the topic but can't seem to find an answer. I understand that if a character with renown participates in and wins a challenge they receive a power token in their character card, not on the faction card. My question is what is the purpose of this power? If this power does not count toward the 15 required to win what is the purpose and function of this? Maybe the answer is right in front but I can't seem to find it. Thanks for the help.

It most certainly does count towards the win condition of 15 Power.

Ohhhh well that makes sense then. I had seen others say it did not count toward the win condition. Ok then this makes sense to me now. Thank you very much for the help.
