Settings
- 200/-75 CPs; +5 for proper background, etc.
- Basic Realism: No "Cinematic" Traits; Exotic/Super Traits available by Race, or cyber/genetic modification. Check "realistic limits" for improved Derived Stats (usually limited to ±2, w/ex)
- Early TL10 (Early = TL9 still common as a cheaper alternative); variable (TL11 available in certain polities)
- Starting Wealth: $40,000 (Gurpees)—overrules listed TL standard
- Non-human races available at GM approval
Official Rules/Options
- Impulse Buys: usage per website; use normal CP, with +3 use-or-lose Plot Points at campaign start
- Probably will include "Paragon/Renegade" concept
- No Extra Effort in Combat (probationary)
- Will be using Improvement Through Study (B292) time-use tracking (spreadsheet)
Unofficial Rules/Options
- Standard House Rules
- No dodging "bullets" beyond Per# yards; "Evasive Movement" (-2), Drop Prone, Give Ground (if suitable cover is present), Acrobatic Dodge give their usual bonus as a penalty to the attacker's roll
- Chinese, as a second-language, in this (USA) area of space, is very common, almost to the point of raising eyebrows if you don't speak some; Language (Chinese or Mandarin) may be purchased at half-cost. Similarly, characters from the TFR will substitute French for Chinese.
