[HoE] Re: [DL] HOE char Generator

["Rehability" <jcook@net-serv.com>]

Greetings,

     Marshal Mode is a toggle that allows the user to "cheat", and buy more
Hindrances, Edges and/or Aptitudes than normally allowed. It also allows you
to edit the Coordination and die type of Traits. As as added bonus, you may
increase Aptitudes upto level 9, instead of 5. It's typically used to allow
Marshals to make NPCs that are more advanced than starting characters, while
still having a way available to create characters "by-the-book".

     The "Add 10 Points" button simply adds 10 points to your Aptitude/Edge
score, so that you can purchase more. I thought I had described everything
in the User Guide...I'll go back and check it.

     Hmmm. Now that I think about it, it also needs to allow you to take
more arcane powers than normal. I'll have to add that in the next update.

     The upcoming version 1.5 update for the DLCG (no, you didn't miss one:
I'm skipping a version number)  also includes Marshal Mode, as well as a
whole host of other goodies. It's nearing completion as we speak...

Thanks,
James "with updates like this, who needs enemies?" Cook
