Changed rules:Character creation, stats&weapon ranks:-Two Affinity rolls made by GM; Player chooses one of them.

First Class-Character Skills banned: Corrosion (because wep.quality on enemies is not counted), Discipline (look below), Provoke (No real use for it), Reinforce (because I say so :3), Stillness (No real use for it, too)
-
Blossom: Gives +5% to all Progression rates, and it can raise them above normal limit (Example: 105% for HP). Those 5% cannot be re-distributed in any way.
-Character Skills changed: Guard (only one person per turn can be Guarded), Nullify (Protects only from one 'Effective vs X' category; you choose it at character creation).
-When the Handbook says 'Your Choosen Weapon (S)', FEF treats it as 'Your Choosen Weapon Subcategory (S)', for the sake of simplicity.
-Automated Weapon Rank Progression: When you reach Level 10 in First Class, you choose one subcategory, either already ranked or from general category, and it gains 1 Rank up. The same happens when you reach Level 10 in Promoted Class.
-Class Skills are changed/removed in several classes, look into spoiler above for full listing.
-Stat Caps:
Normal class: 50HP*, Preferred Stats at 20, rest of stats at 18.
Promoted class: 60HP*, Preferred Stats at 30, rest of stats at 28.
*doesn't matter if it's Preferred Stat or not.
