I'd be happy to, but is that limit kept in TNE at all? Anyway,
quite apart from thinking that an average maximum on skill levels
of 14 is too low, I also think it strange that someone with an
UPP of CCC227 can at most get 4 levels of _combat_ skills. So I
use two types of experience, Physical experience = Str+Dex and
Mental experience = Int+Edu and allow characters to count
physical skills against their PhyEx and mental skills against
their MenEx. Then I place some skills (like _mechanical_) in a
third category (In Between) and allow a character to count
these against either experience total as they want.
