Since I have gun combat 3, can I take slug at 2 and energy at 1?
I took melee as blade. If I can't split the gun, I am going all in on slug.

Sure, no problem on the split!

I'm fine with taking any of these EXCEPT for Survival, Recon or Gun Combat, as I already have those skills at Rank 1 or higher.

How about if I take Electronics 1, and I can specialize in Sensors?

Well, it's camping, which isn't one of my favorite activities because it usually involves going outside, but I do plan to spend the better part of one of the days playing Ham Radio, so it's a sacrifice I'll have to make. :D
Do it!

OK. I think I am ready for adventure. Here is where I ended...

Oh, and I took a TL 10 medikit as my starting item.

Ok, so the list atm:

Pilot 1
Astrogation 1
Electronics 1 - Steve
Survival 1 - !Steve
Recon 1 - !Steve
Gun Combat 1 - !Steve
Stealth 1
Medic 1 - Luctius

With ! denoting a preference to avoid those skills.

I am sorry, but I am not sure what that is a list of. Skills we need? I have recon 0, I don't know how to get it to 1.
I have gun combat at 3.

This is a list of skills that the party gets free of charge. Each of you should select at least one [for some, more] of these skills until all have been selected. They represent skills that will help the group immensely in their adventures. For example, I don't believe that you have a Pilot or Astrogator, so someone may want to take one or both of those skills (it's better to divide the duties so that the pilot can concentrate on piloting whole the astrogator does their thing).

Ok I have medic and gun combat already. I can see Carlos as the kind of guy who would learn skills just for ongoing education.

I will take Pilot. It is at 1?

Can I change the race of my character?

Sophia/I have Astrogation and Pilot(spacecraft) at Level one just so you know.

I'm gonna take Stealth at Level 1

Pilot 1
Astrogation 1
Electronics 1 - Steve
Survival 1 - !Steve
Recon 1 - !Steve
Gun Combat 1 - !Steve
Stealth 1 - Sophia
Medic 1 - Luctius

It never hurts to duplicate skills. Hannabarbera, I will permit it, but only to Aslan or Vargr. Machiabelly, yes, Pilot is at 1.

Ok I will be co-pilot.
If we need, I can change it for one of the untaken skills.

Okay I change the race of my character to human. They are now called Sylvia Plath.
