I'm thinking a Quigley Down Under type character.

Lol, I love that movie.

Changed up the character concept a bit. Former Pinkerton man now freelance adventurer.

So my character sheet looked ok when I was creating it, but after I saved it, it is all jacked up. Any suggestions? I have it saved in Excel and in a PDF.

Cowboys and Aliens, great choice. 👍

At work so I can’t check this but IIRC firearms are divided info Pistol / Rifle pick one and you get the other at 1/2 thus if you raise rifle by 4 you get 2 pistol plus your base Dex.

I think is shows pistol/pistol because of the formatting. I chose pistol specialization with xp.

I put 4 ranks in firearms, then bought pistol specialization.

What is IIRC?

If I Recall Correctly. It’s very old.

That form gets so mashed cutting and pasting it...

Oh, if I copy the. Cut and Paste back into the original file it fixes the formatting! Carry on I’ll do that and sort it out.

Okay, @HorahRat, I’m assuming you bought Con / Investigation / Streetwise to level 1 as part of the base character and then leveled them up to 2 with the 15 starting xps. If so I have you 3 skill points over spent. If you used the xps to buy skill rank 2 you’d need to buy rank 1 first so 2 points for rank 1 and 2 points for rank 2, unless I’m wrong... I could be.

Could you make a character blank on the top page please.

What is a character blank?

I spent 4 points for each skill I bought with xp. Rank 2 x 2 points = 4 points. That's how I understood it.

Ah, I think 2x1 plus 2x2. Lemme double check.

I think you go back to the main page, https://gamersplane.com/games/2374/ and there’s a way to create a character. Make a custom sheet and then you ought to be good. Create it with your character name and just leave it empty I can cut and paste in.

Are skills considered traits?

Yep.

Every time I drive down I5 near LA, there’s an exit labelled "Buttonwillow McKitrich" I think this is possibly the best Cowgirl name ever... and now it’s in your head too.
