[DL] Lone Stars stuff(Mr Mcglothlin or anyone who feels they know)

[Kevin L Stoner <stone1kl@cmich.edu>]

I know this should have come up much sooner but I am a bit 
daft about coming up with this stuff until it just kinda 
smacks me in the face. Last night one of my posse members was 
finally able to come up with enough stuff to meet the Rangers 
prestige class ability. Between that and the completion of 
Ghost Busters(which he and the posse did primarily for the 
Rangers) I decided that if the posse would give him the time 
he needed to go off to boot camp then he could become a 
Texase Ranger. Anyway we were looking at ranks in lone stars 
and he pointed something out to me, since the Rangers are a 
prestige class and only go to 10th level how does one gain 
higher ranks? After all at 10the level they are only a 2nd 
lieutenant or something. My question is should I halve the 
level rank, or should I extend the chart? If I lower the rank 
that makes a Brigadier general(such as General King) at least 
a 17th level character(7 for minimum requirements +10 for 
Brigadier) and that seems pretty darn powerful and he could 
be higher than that after taking more levels in Gunslinger or 
scout or whatever. The third option is to add the characters 
current level when they join thus representing the military 
way of instantly promoting a person to officer based on there 
experience such as modern military. Well there you have it I 
would like to know your thoughts on it Christopher, Shane, 
Mom, whoever. Thanks in advance :).
