I'm getting ready to run a Traveller game in the immediate future, and I have a couple of queries that I'm not entirely clear about.
Skills
I have at least one rank in a specialisation, am I assumed to have rank 0 in the skill overall? For example, if I get Engineer during character creation and take it as Engineer (J-Drive) 1, do I get Engineer 0 as far as the other specialities are concerned? I can see it working that way for something like Engineer, but then I see that Science has a metric ton of specialities, and I'm dubious that a rank in Science (Biology) should give and competence in Science (History)
Characteristics
Does damage to physical Characteristics affect their DM?
I recognise these are basic questions, is there an FAQ or something?
