Optional Skill system [Dragon #110 - Maxstadt - for GW 2nd Ed? [1986].: example skills include
Skill - Fishing
Skill - Foraging
Vocation - "Ship Captain" [would include Sailor; not a defined skill]

[normally characters roll = d4 for skills, plus Int modifiers [0 for 10], -1 for mutant humans; max of '3' - result more or less fits the Central Casting results for primary (rank 3+) skills. Treat 'rank 1' skills as near enough to untrained/default - can still use CC system, probably. Fishing skill can use Dragon #110 rules.
[scavenging was automatic based on cultural background, but background was also random (for first character anyway]; equivalent to rolls of
4 or less (unmodified d6)(Skill), plus:
-5 on d10-Fishing

NWPs: 'Int' bonus applies to GW skills (theoretically) from Dragon 110.

Assume he can gain a new D&D NWP each 3 levels [3rd, 6th, 9th]
Want to gain: Planar Geometry [1 slot, priest/wizard, Int-1]
[?general skill crossovers]

In reply to Arek (msg # 8):

Dragon #101 has dimensional randomization rules.

Secrets of the Ancients Skill system: would better accomodate "Central Casting" skills, see Gamma World 4E folder. No extra cost for fully new skills, other classes bought at 2/1 as stated

original skills assigned- Jury Rig 8, Repair Artifact 8, Avoid Artifact Disaster 0, Read Schematics 0; adjusted for new skill system.

Wilderness Survival* - scout specific - replaces an Examiner skill due to weird background; Rank 4 = 8 points. [use x2 conversion]
[normally a character from a stone age culture couldn't become an Examiner, so background with change in cultural level creates a reasonable exception]

Read/Write (mandatory) -2 ranks.
Rank 8 Survival [/Scavenging]
Rank 6 Sailor
Rank 6 Fishing (bonus for high Education roll)
Rank 6 Lizard riding
Jury-Rig 8

[base 30 'skill points' for altered human; bonus for Central Casting roll]
[theoretically apply Int attribute adjustment to Jury-Rig]

Fixed +4 points per level; convert these into 'character points' which can be used for AD&D proficiencies [Skills & Powers].

XP Value: 1,000 GP Value: 8,000
Unearthed Arcana
When this magical chapeau is worn, the wearer
is able to assume the role of a character of any
class other than that he or she actually practices.
This magical headgear only empowers assumption
of 1st level, but as long as it is worn, the
possessor is able to act as a member of the
named class. Any experience gained is in the
assumed role only, but it is cumulative, so if in
several wearings the individual actually goes to
2nd level, then he or she retains that level whenever
the hat is worn and the new class is assumed.
Such progress may continue indefinitely, but if
the hat is discarded, lost or stolen, or not within a
one-mile radius of its owner for any 24-hour
period, then all experience in the different class
is lost. The hit points of the character are always
those actually possessed, just as all ability scores
are those of the actual character.

22:12, Today: Arek rolled 10 using 1d20.  Jury-rig roll- x-bow launching african throwing knives.

Statistics: equivalent to light crossbow but fires a multibladed knife (similar to african throwing knife, hole in middle) vertically. Like African throwing knife deals [d4+1] damage, with a +1 to hit. Main benefit (for D&D characters) would be that it uses 'crossbow' proficiency.
Say spent 100 GP on materials.-- roll of 19 trying to sell it (fail to get offer with profit).

In reply to Arek (msg # 18):


15:17, Today: Arek rolled 9 using 1d20.  Jury-rig - gill hydration package.
[if gills 'drying out' - basically a water-filled pouch which straps (sealing against the skin) to torso to keep gills moist.

From Gamma World 2E book:

Characters begin a Campaign knowing Trade Language, a clan language and, if
they are Humanoids or Mutated Animals, a Species Language. During the Campaign,
they may learn a number of other languages equal to one half their IN
(rounded down), providing they have the necessary senses and vocal apparatus

In addition, all Cryptic Alliances will have their own secret language known
only by members (or former members) of that alliance.

Languages: Trade Language, Home City language, Radioactivist, Spanish
+learned D&D 'Common'.
[uses Telepathy]

2E: has Gamma World prices in Gold Pieces (D&D equivalent) - so would be accepted as well as 'domars'.
