An interesting suggestion, Olivier. I think the AoE rules as they stand cause similar problems in other areas - for example, a botanist needs 3 points in Science before they can take the appropriate AoE, implying that they are proficient in other areas of science which have absolutely no relation to their subject - Physics, Maths, etc. I guess some common sense has to apply (or the rules about having 3 in a skill before you can specialise needs to be relaxed). Incidently, I realise your comment about the Craft skill being including merely to make the numbers up to a nice round 12 is tongue in cheek. But there are in fact 13 skills in DWAiTAS (unless I've failed my AoE: Arithmetic roll!).

Sorry but I think you did fail your roll here Let's check the character record sheets: 1) ATHLETICS 2) CONVINCE 3) CRAFT 4) FIGHTING 5) KNOWLEDGE 6) MARKSMAN 7) MEDICINE 8) SCIENCE 9) SUBTERFUGE 10) SURVIVAL 11) TECHNOLOGY 12) TRANSPORT Or have I missed something here?

Oh how embarrassing! We've added Animal Handling as a separate skill in our games, for horse riding and the like, separate from the usual Athletics. I guess I'm so used to seeing it on our character sheets that I forgot it wasn't an official skill!

I thought the explanation might be something like this - and I was wondering what thirteenth skill you had added (but I never thought about Animal Handling ) Incidentally, I realized I should have posted this thread in the Rules Discussion section. Could perhaps a moderator teleport it there ?
