Okay, here's the list of skills that I'm, umm, "applying" for (asterisk denotes a new skill):
Climb/Jump (STR): From 3D+1 to 3D+2 (3 pts.)
Command (PER): 3D+2 (3 pts.) *
Persuasion (PER): 3D+3 (3 pts.) *
Communications (MECH): 2D+1 (2 pts.) *
Lifting (STR): 3D+1 (3 pts.) *
First Aid (TECH): from 3D+1 to 3D+2 (3 pts.)
Cultures (KNOW): 4D (4 pts.) * Reason: We have Kothe in our units. Also, it's long overdue.
Sensors (MECH): 2D+1 (2 pts.) *
Total CP used (if everything's approved): 23
Total CP left (if everything's approved): 12
NOTE: I noticed that Niil has a Leadership skill of 4D (KNOW), and I didn't see it in the player's handbook. Is this a skill that can complement Command (PER)?
