[UA] skill costs.

[Chris Cooper]

I'd actually leave skill costs the way they are.
Bigassedhooters aren't going to improve much over play
- they're pretty much fixed from character creation.

While Bigbadgundaddy 20% will probably need to improve
just a little bit.

I woudn't worry about penalising characters for their
personal skill choices. This is the Munchkin Syndrome
and as we all know, Munchkinism is a problem with the
player, not the system. 

Give players the bare minimum XP and they hoard it.
Give them a little more and they tinker around (my
experience).

On a side note, one of the guys I ran for considers
himself a professional munchkin - he goes and torques
the system for maximum leverage (usually combat). His
statement was that UA is self-balancing - he could max
out over here, but be completely screwed in this other
field.

The little bird that is the song in my heart
is too tired to be carried
by its battered wings.

It falls, crashes...
... and is still in its bone cage...
