Okay, new guy question here. Are the playable races in the Alien Archives allowed to be used without a Boon sheet? Looking at the Errata/Addendums of what is and isn't allowed can be a bit bewildering.

This includes the core races and the legacy races towards the back.

Keep in mind that if you get a boon that opens a legacy race, you now have different options to what to do with the boon.

You don't need a boon anymore to play a dwarf, but if you use it to get +2 to a stat, remember that it is considered a permanent Personal boon.

It is worth noting that there seems to be NO restriction on Androids with the xenometric android alternate racial, so you can make like, an android Nuar and gain SOME of their racial abilities. Check the CHaracter operations manual for more.

That is a neat idea!

You should also keep an eye/ear out for "checkbook style" boons, which have been released occasionally, as they are filled in by playing and/or running games and unlock a race option when filled. If another of those comes up, it is handy to know early on, as some have been time-limited (play x number of scenarios over the course of a year, or the like).

Yeah I'm rather surprised at that, but remember that this was just the base sanctioning, there's a batch of clarifications still in the pipeline somewhere that's taking longer to put online.

Yeah, seconding this point, just in case you make something you think is awesome and it is canned by the clarifications.

Just as a heads up :)

But, no idea when the clarifications will come out!
