[QUOTE="Nonlethal Force, post: 3223967, member: 35788"] Abilities are good so long as this reflects a base 16 +1 for 4th level increase I come up with 40. 10+7+8+7+8(CON) A few things on skills: First, GI may or may not fit the character, and it is a skill that [I]may[/I] be reasonably covered. [Destiny has it maxed, but is an NPC. Eoin (Rino's proposed character) has it as well and that character has a few more skill points to throw to cc skills.] As a soldier, he wouldn't necessarily be skilled in GI. However, he certainly could be. I'm not denying it, just making sure that you understand the whole picture. [See next paragraph for continuation] Second, I am pretty sure as a 4th level character your max ranks are 7, which makes your max cc skills at 3.5. However ... if you are serious about involving both of these skills in your character, can I seriously suggest that you drop a level of fighter and pick up human paragon? You'll take a hit to BAB by one, but you'll get to choose your class skills for that level and you can forever designate one skill as a class skill for any class you take in the future. Plus, you'll get a boost to your WILL saves. Just a thought. It'd cost you a level in fighter, though. But I could see it being worth it. {In case you don't have the book, Human Paragon is essentially a 3-level class that offers cleric progression BAB, Saves as a wizard, Adaptive Learning (Choose one skill forever as a class skill) at 1st level, Bonus feat at 2nd level, and an Ability Boost (+2) to any score at 3rd level. It also gives +1 spellcasting at 2nd and 3rd levels. HP = d8, SP = 4+INT.} Third, Knowledge (war)? If you are attempting to make up a new knowledge area go ahead and put it under Royalty/Nobility. Wars would be along the same lines. You could also do History, but I think you are gunning more for tactics than knowledge of prior wars. Anyway, solid start. Think about that level in human paragon. It might take a bit away now, but in the long run it might make you happier. Ultimately, though, it's your call. [/QUOTE]
