CharGen and Book 4: Psion

[Baron_Vulk_Morden]

This may seem like a rather idiotic question, but when it comes to Character Generation concerning the careers given in the Psion book, there is one big question concerning my players, and I haven't been finding the answer in the books themselves.

When generating characters with the careers in Book 4: Psion, do you take your zero-level basic training skills from your Service Skills column (as in chapter 2: Characters, in the Traveller main book) or from the Specialist column as the Psion career (in chapter 11: Psionics) tends to?

Thanks for any help with this, gang.

Unless it says differently (such as basic training for a Dedicated Psion Agency) just use the normal rules. The Psion career is just for that career, haven't seen anything that said differently.

You can't roll those using d66. With that you can't roll a 7,8,9 or 0. Just roll 2 d6's, take one value as high and one low and that's the roll.
