Missing career paths

Athletes are a choice in Dark Conspiracy character creation and it has 90% commonality with T2k in that area. Don't remember if priests were covered. I don't believe they added Sports or Theology as skills.

I did notice that Medics can't take medicine in secondary terms, but I seem to remember that being an issue in one of the real rulebooks as well.

Re: first term skills: The variance doesn't seem to have a pattern, though. a first term enlisted engineer gets 5 skills. A first term enlisted combat correspondent gets 11. An athlete gets 4, a priest gets 9. Etc.

The lack of such skills was, IMHO, also a weakness in DC.

The Medic not being able to take Medical is an oversight on my part. Apologies.

(This is a perfect example of why I posted this. It's always good to have someone else read your stuff to spot errors. Thanks for catching this, Kato.)

No need for apologies. In any volume of work mistakes are going to creep in. Thanks for sharing your work.

Glad I could be an additional set of eyes.
