A question/quibble on the issue of skills (IS the TDR still active?) - skill
levels are arranged in a rather peculiar way. For all matters Pilot-1 is
equivalent to Handgun-1. That is, of course, quite unrealistic. I am a pistol
user/carrier and basic level of use of a pistol is quite simple. Of course,
higher skill levels require quite a lot of training, but the basic competency
is not that hard to attain.
Worse, the Linguistics skill is tottaly unrealistic. Each level of linguistics
gives an additional foreign language. Is, then, my "real life" linguistics
level is 4 (I am a linguitics student)? Of course, this is not true, but skill
system should be somehow arranged to reflect skill complexity.
