[The Cheshire Cat]

What might be interesting is if your business fronts might be more effective "cover" based on the business skill of the people you have staying there; the idea being that higher business skill allows them to make the place look more legitimate by creating more believable paperwork for auditors and such.

And of course risk having the cover being blown if the manager or whoever is working there is wanted for something.

It would be great if the name of the company could change accordingly as well, along the lines of it being named a 'BlandCorp Office' with great business skill and 'Totally-Not-Terrorist Joe's Liberal Bookstore' at very low.

Some things to consider about education:

1) The speed in which you learn is based on your total potential skill.  Meaning that if you have two skills at zero, with the first having an upper limit of 20 and the other of 10, then the former will raise faster than the latter (on a per day of training basis).  This applies no matter what your source of learning is.

2) In the tradition of RPGs everywhere skill increase is a ramp effect.  This means that lower levels are gained much quicker and easier than higher levels.

3) Although the amount that you can teach is limited by your teaching skill, the mere act of teaching raises your teaching skill from practice.  While learning that skill at the University is probably faster, if you've got more free time than money then you can let your would-be educator simply raise their own low teaching score the natural way (this takes a long time, of course, but it works).

4) Don't forget 1 & 2 when teaching students.  Even the best teacher will be limited by their student's potential.  A pistols of 20 and a teaching of 20 doesn't help much when your student's pistol skill cap is only 4.  That other student with the skill cap of 12 is going to learn much faster.
