In RM, it's based upon current attributes. In Alternity, it's based upon level (4+New Level). Advancement: 3.x is +(new level)×1000;  RM is 10,000 per level through 5th; 20k per level through 10th, 30k per level through 15th, and so on; Alternity is 4+(new level) to obtain the new level (same as the skill points given. Both RM and Alternity are slower increase in required experience.Alternity and RM use skills for attacks; 3.x does not, instead using a class & level lookup for BAB.Alternity and RM do not automatically improve combat capabilities; 3.x does. (Ok, if using one of the options, RM gives a very slow automatic advancemeng to weapon skills for certain classes, which stacks with dev-point purchased ranks)Now, Alternity Perks are fairly comparable to Feats, and have no basis in the editions of RM I'm familiar with (1e/2e, and SM 1e/2e).I do see the influence, but I'll note that Monte Cook is a common thread in all 3.</blockquote>
