Hi, I just signed because I have a question about the rules. I don't know if this is the most appropriate section of the forum, so please let me know. Anyway, I bought the 7th edition core rulebook at the last Lucca Comics&Games fair, and it seems to me that there are some contradictory informations about how to calculate the Credit Rating of the character; my questions are: 1) in the Professions table, every profession has a starting CR listed as a range X-Y: does the X value have to be subtracted from the character points or is it "free"? Example, if I want to make an engineer, the CR is listed as 30-60; do I have to spend at least 30 points to reach the minimum value, or I start from 30 and then I add up points to it? 2) in the Harvey Walters example, his CR is said to be 41, but this would exceed the one listed for the "Journalist" profession, that has a range of 9-30: am I missing something or is it an error? Similarly, in the "Credit Rating" paragraph, it is said that a criminal lord could have a starting CR of 90, but in the table the maximum allowed for "Criminal" is 65. Thanks a lot, I'm planning to play with some friends but I'd like to clarify at least these things before starting the game.
