[PnP] Max scores

[Hsingai Altaica]

Speaking of max scores. I have house ruled that you can train characteristics and skills above the max, it costs an extra *NEL and I'm thinking to have to train enough to raise the difference between your max and current ability or it goes back down to max maybe me a skill check every month at your max and if you fail you loose a level and on a partial success you don't get to count  that month's  Expertise Points towards skill gain. on a severe success you don't have to check next month and on a critical you get the amount of Expertise Points to train to EL1 added to next month. --- It is with books as with the fire in our hearths; we go to a neighbor to get the embers and light it when we return home, pass it on to others, and it belongs to everyone.

Every system has a learning curve.  It doesn't matter if your a dimwit or genius. Just takes practice and repeating things.  A podcasti listened to for Fringeworthy had a bonus segment on Avalon Hill andtheir games.  With pnp in mind I can see why Richard waslimited.  For certain projects creators were limted by the page orword count.  Old writer that left AH for TSR told all this.  SoI can see why v1 was ...lacking...in details for some.

Some Powers & Perils talk:
As a teenager, I found character creation sometimes confusing, and other
times overly burdensome especially where ability advancement was
concerned.  It was written easy enough or me to essentially
houserule abilities to be at maximum at the start of play such that you
never increased them in play.  Instead, you focused on increasing
Experience Levels, Skill Levels and acquiring magic items.
