SM: P RM Step 20.14 Restricted Skills Part 0 p. 64
« on: June 25, 2011, 09:31:56 AM »
More checking to make sure I have a clue this time for Restricted Skills


Q1: The Restricted Skills will have a 0 (zero) point cost for 11+ skills and when there are no skills restricted for use by the android?

Q2: There is no Price Tag associated with selecting Restricted Skills?

Q3: Do I have the Point Cost progression correct in the list below?

                                       1 = -2
                                       2 = -4
                                       3 = -6
                                       4 = -8
                                       5 = -10
                                       6 = -11
                                       7 = -12
                                       8 = -13
                                       9 = -14
                                       10 = -15
                                       11+ = 0

Q1) I do not understand you question, can you rephrase it?


Q2) Since restricted skills are basically a flaw it has no monetary cost only a build point cost.


Q3) Yes the point cost for 11+ skills defaults to -15 points.

Okay that is better for a minute there I thought the world might be coming to an end.

Q1: The Restricted Skills will have a 0 (zero) point cost for 11+ skills and when there are no skills restricted for use by the android?

The Android Restricted Skills Table on p. 64 lists 11+ skills having a Point Cost of 0 (zero) points per skill.

The example text for Step 20.14, above the table, states:

Quote
Gary feels that an espionage android must be well-rounded. He therefore selects no restricted skills, gaining no points.

The way I read the table is that for 11+ skills you get a 0 zero point cost reduction and from the example text you also get a 0 (zero) point reduction.

However, the answer to Q3 that indicates that the maximum point cost reduction is -15 points for 10+ skills placed as restricted to the android.

Again thank-you for checking my work.
