I asked the question about FT having a racial limit quite a while back and was told that it was the FT value equated from the racial maximum EN. This is as stated in section 2.1 of the rulebook, straight after the FT/EN table.

This > is as stated in section 2.1 of the rulebook, straight after the FT/EN table. You are either using the edited version of the rules, or a copy of the original system that I haven't seen. In the copy of rulebook I have read, it does not say that there is a limit on FT anywhere. I'm not saying that such a rule is not inferrable, but I am saying that it is not an explicit rule, and I believe that we have not interpreted the rule as it was intended. However, that's pretty irrelevant, really. The main point is that taking the limit off of FT is pretty harmless, and does all the right things. I don't see why the rule isn't changed, really. It would tend to give value to being a senior adventure... Jim. -- See message headers to unsubscribe from --
