Bad luck? WTF? Do you have a random encounter chart with the field college on it? <rolls dice> You encounter the Crimson Bat; you are all dead! Where is the fun in that? You must have loved Traveller: the characters could die before play even began.

I'm with Trotsky on this, but just to be safe: 'clan champion' covers a range of ability ratings, with some clan champions better than others. I reckon you could reasonably cover a mastery in range (1W2 to 1W3?). Received on Thu 16 Nov 2006 - 23:36:50 EET
