Skill Package Option

[-Daniel-]

In the 1st Ed Rule Book there was an option to allow the Character to just select one skill at level 1 rather than select skills from a package. Will this option find its way into 2nd ed? If not in the CRB, maybe the Traveller Companion?

That rule was in 1st end under the the alternate character generation rules, specifically for Solo Character Generation.
So I suppose it will show up in the companion with other alternate rules.

I suspect this as well, but was curious enough to ask. 8)

Yes, but that is not what I asked about. I asked about an option that does not show up in the Beta document we have.

Not being planned, no.

Not even for the Companion? Or is the No just in reference to the CRB?

I like archetypes, especially point based systems where you can tweak them to reflect your character. Because you have a template that gives you an inkling what you should aim for.

Traveller isn't point based in character creation, more randomly generated.
