[QUOTE="small pumpkin man, post: 4697655, member: 57910"] Thing is I really like the SAGA skill system, I think it's much better, especially the whole "high level characters are competent at most things". I think it's what level based skill systems always should have been (The fact that C&C uses a similar system is part of the reason I think it's worth salvaging, even if it has other clunky parts). Because of this, if my players asked for more granularity (a decent thing to ask for), what I'd say is everyone keeps the 1/2 level to all skills, and everyone gets an amount of skill points equal to their amount of trained skills in the base system multiplied by five to spread around as they wish (and possibly move around a bit when they levelled up). I'd probably say using for trained only skill uses and for applying for feat/class prerequisites you need three ranks in the skill. However I have never actually tried this out, so it might be a bit fiddly, or have other glaring issues. EDIT - actually, you could tie skill focus into the system as well, but that would require a little bit more thinking about it than I feel like right now. [/QUOTE]
