It's 5 points, not 25.

@Kriellya: Not assault mission. Correct that to space battle. Also, timeskip only grants points to those that got points in the first place. Also Anomalous Planetoid mission grants 2 levelups since it counts as 2 missions

I would like some clarity on that from PW when he gets up. He didn't want to think about the timeskip in IRC and I can't figure out what he finally okay'd.

Hey PW, how is the time skip working? I think you said just 5 points for everyone?

See logs in Paris's post:

[2015-03-23 06:10:26] <Piecewise> Ok so
[2015-03-23 06:10:31] <Piecewise> Fuck the time skip stuff
[2015-03-23 06:10:39] <Piecewise> too random, too hectic, too varying
[2015-03-23 06:12:36] <syvarris> Does that mean no levelup for timeskip, or just going with the nonrandom, nonhectic "+5 to either stats or skills"?
[2015-03-23 06:13:35] <Piecewise> It's just gonna be "You get 5 points. You can put them in skills or stats or some combo. Thats it"
[2015-03-23 06:14:04] <renegade> That works
[2015-03-23 06:14:21] <Caellath> Same as boarding, then.
[2015-03-23 06:15:37] <Nikitian> Non-levelup features and bonuses of time-skip still remain as-is, I hope? (I'd really hate to lose fleshknitter to retcon)
[2015-03-23 06:17:04] <Piecewise> Nah, thats fine. Just numbers. I won't retcon anything else if I can help it

Assault on Hephaestus was a mission, Defense of Hephaestus was a different one. Boarding/ship assault was an extra bit of Defense and follows the same logic as timeskip: 5 wildcard points. Using "assault" for both the attack on Hep and the ship boarding may be causing Kri's confusion.

For the original stats, points are cumulative. Two +1s have to be cancelled out the same as a +2, which requires three -1s, not two. So you're one point over in stats and skills.

Gorat: Same issue as Charles.  Not wrong, but it would be more efficient to start Exo at +2, and aux at +0, then upgrade aux to +1 using levelup points, with another five left over.
Well, and now I have 5 skill points left over.  :P For Intuition, maybe, or getting a headstart on Exo +4, and I still have to decide on moving the -1 from General Knowledge to Uncon...

If I did math correctly you still have 5 unspent points in skills.

Stats/skills can go to -2 only. And there is a +2 cap for new characters.
Does this apply to just skills? If not, then the highest willpower that I can have as a new character is 2 at first. Yet the Microwave Amp requires a minimum of 3 willpower. So did you just mean that skills have the +2 limit, not stats?

The stat requirements haven't been changed over to the new system yet, I'm pretty sure. The microwave amp probably will just require a +1 in willpower.

Okay, I guess that works out then.

Math: +3 bonus equals -6 penalty in stats. And +4 in skills is -10 penalty.
