Re: Character Generation
I guess, I just randomly picked a square and rolled.
Does it matter?
Do I need to pick specialties with in the skills?
And, does the Battle Dress skill cover Vacc Suit?
Combat Armor for free, and shop for other stuff?

Re: Character Generation
What table are you rolling on to get free combat armor?Nuke66 wrote:So, no muster benefits? Just cash? so convent to CR.?
And you said you had a table for a failed survival roll.
Book 4 Mercenary (CT) refers muster out rolls to Book 1 Pg 9. The cash roll is ok.
Your two rolls you took for material benefits are a 6 & a 2. On the Marine Material Benefit table, Book 1 CT, it comes out to a +2 INT and a High Passage.
For the 'nonsurvival' roll, use the dice server for a 2D6 roll. This is Campaign 496. I use the 'Unfit For Service' table in Paranoia Press's 'Scouts and Assassins'. Cute lil table.
