RE: The Kingmaker game
So the Cleric bailed. Who else is a healer? The Paladin and I are half-assed healers at best. That's it for healing, correct?
The alchemist is a half-way decent backup healer if he gets the one that lets him share.
Yes, Captain is 02.

TERM 5
The Marines are done with the Force Commander, and he is forcibly removed from his cushy office.
Choices :
Draft, Drifter, Muster out...
Don't forget "Gun Combat (Slug Rifle) 1" on the skills table (Marine Rank 0 Choice).
Cole Shepard will go ahead and muster out at 34 years old.
Can I make all 5 benefit rolls on the Security table?
If so then I'm thinking let's make 2 rolls on the Cash table and see what that lands us.
Sorry about that.
But no, he can't make any rolls on security muster tables, since he crapped out without any rolls earned in Security. All his rolls have to be taken on the Marine muster out table.
Or he has to go into another career to get a different muster out table.
At 34 I think hitting the Draft or being a Drifter for one Term would be kind of pointless.
I'll go ahead and Muster Out and roll on the Star Marine table.
Let's make 2 rolls on the Cash table and see what that lands us.

One more cash roll, and then the last two rolls will be from the "Other Benefits" column.
$40,000
Both Armour or +1 END
Both +1 END for a total of 11.
So no equipment, but much more survivable. :)
My rationale is that I can buy equipment but I can't buy an inherent +2 to END.
The goal here is to create a doctor. Perhaps someone else will cover heavy combat in the future. My intention is to start with Support / Specialist: Medical from "Traveller - Book 02 - High Guard (mgp3803)" and then transition to Scholar / Specialist: Physician from "Traveller - Core Rulebook (MGP3800)". Let's see if that plan works out!
So that was +1, +1, -1, -2, 0, and +1, which adds up to +0.
Rolling stats again.
This is an overall +1. I'll assign them below.
