Hi again, I need another rule clarification, this time about age. At page 19, it's explained that: 1) for every full 10 years you add to the default starting age of your character, you can allot 20, 30 or 40 professional skill points; 2) any fraction of years below 10 does not qualify for this skill bonus, etc... Can someone explain me the meaning of these two rules, possibly with numeric examples? Thanks in advance.

uhm, I've read it and I think it's better... it's similar to the new fatigue rule of Rune Quest, with levels of fatigue, but more basic and simplier, isn't it?

Hi I'm new in this forum. I'm starting to appreciate the Chaosium d100 system, I think it's better than other systems, and I hope to write soon a good adventure to play with my friends, but before I have some optional rules that I have to understand better, first of all the fatigue and encumbrance rule. On page 32 of the BRP core book, it's explained that fatigue points are the result of strenght + constitution, and it's also explained that ENC value affects the fatigue points: how? I've read on other posts and on RuneQuest core book that ENC must be subtracted from maximum fatigue points, is this interpretation correct? On page 180 there's the explanation of the ENC rule, and it is in this section that I have big problems of interpretation. It's written that ENC is equal to one size for general purposes, but in human scale ENC is equal to 1/6 of size. So which of these equations do I have to use? ENC = size or ENC = 1/6 size? Another and last question: it's written that a character has a 50% chance of lifting ENC of up to his strenght value x 6 on the resistance table. What does it mean? Does the character have to do a resistance roll every time he has to lift ENC? These are the rules that I need to understand better, thanks in advance for the answers.
