I thought it was just a -1 penalty. It says -1 for each previous career. And I've only done 1 career, right?

Doh! Quite right, 'Career' not 'Term'. It is just -1.

[ +- ] The story so far
As much as Ronny enjoyed being a trader, he felt the need to take on a new challenge. Smuggling things had awakened a side of him he didn't know about yet. He liked talking his way out of things. And so, he wanted to become a spy!

Mustering out:
I lost and gained 1 benefit in my events. I get 3 from my 3 terms as a trader, and I get 2 from my rank (3)
I'm rolling 2 cash rewards and 3 benefits

Rolls

Cash - (1d6, 1d6)

1d6 : (4) = 4

1d6 : (3) = 3

Benefits - (1d6, 1d6, 1d6)

1d6 : (4) = 4

1d6 : (2) = 2

1d6 : (1) = 1

In order I gained:
20000Cr
10000Cr
Gun
Int+1
Blade

Do Blade and Gun go to level 0 or level 1 if I don't have them yet?
Term 4: Agent (Intelligence)

Rolls

Agent quallification (Int 6+) (-1 from previous careers) - (2d6+1)

(54) + 1 = 10

Myself says:
Do Blade and Gun go to level 0 or level 1 if I don't have them yet?
I get 1 blade with a limit of 1000Cr and TL12
I also get 1 gun with a limit of 3000Cr and TL12
I don't think I get any skills.

I qualify! For basic traning I get to pick 1 stat from service skills. I will pick Gun Combat. which is now level 0.
Then I roll on the Intelligence table and try to survive.

Rolls

Intelligence table - (1d6)

(4) = 4

Survival (Int 7+) - (2d6+2)

(41) + 2 = 7

Jun 23, 2022 3:50 pm
I gain level 1 stealth and survive (once again, just barely).

Rolls

Event - (2d6)

(24) = 6

Jun 23, 2022 3:52 pm
You are given advanced training in a specialist field. Roll EDU 8+ to increase any one skill you
already have by one level.
Probably not going to happen, but let's see.

Rolls

Training - (2d6-1)

(52) - 1 = 6

Advancement (Int 5+) - (2d6+2)

(26) + 2 = 10

Rolling on personal development - (1d6)

(5) = 5

Jun 23, 2022 3:57 pm
I am now rank 1 - Agent. I get Deception 1
I rolled +1 Int on the pers. dev. table. now at 14 int.

Next thing to roll is aging

Rolls

Aging - (2d6-4)

(61) - 4 = 3

I made a mistake here. Because of my gambler stat I get a +1 on cash rolls. So I rolled 20000 and 20000.

I'm not yet affected by aging and will do another term of Agent (Intelligence)
Term 5
No qualification needed.

Rolls

Rolling personal development - (1d6)

(5) = 5

Survival (Int 7+) - (2d6+2)

(51) + 2 = 8

Jun 23, 2022 4:01 pm
Another point of int! 15 (DM+3) now :D
Event time

Rolls

Event - (2d6)

(45) = 9

Jun 23, 2022 4:03 pm
You go above and beyond the call of duty. Gain DM+2 to your next advancement roll.

Rolls

Advancement (int5+) I literally can't fail this :D - (2d6+5)

(16) + 5 = 12

Rolling on the service skills table - (1d6)

(4) = 4

Aging - (2d6-5)

(14) - 5 = 0

Rank Field Agent -> investigate 1
Service Skills gave me Flyer. I think I have to pick one of the types. So I went for this:
https://i.imgur.com/yevoJJ6.png
Aging: reduce 1 physical stat by 1. I picked Str (from 8 to 7)

I think I'm going to stop here.
Jun 23, 2022 4:13 pm
I believe I get 3 benefit rolls (2 terms and 1 from rank 2)
I will roll 1 cash and 2 benefits.

Rolls

Cash (gambler) - (1d6+1)

(1) + 1 = 2

Benefits - (1d6, 1d6)

1d6 : (5) = 5

1d6 : (3) = 3

Unlucky on the cash, only 2000Cr
[ +- ] I get a ship share
[ +- ] And a cybernetics implant

Yep. As you did, 1 in the specialisation you picked, 0 in the rest of Flyer
TheGenerator says:

Successful careers with only one Ageing related downside. Nice and smooth.
TheGenerator says:

There are some interesting tables that tell us a lot, Merchant gives better average Cash, but the highest Agent Cash beats all of those. Makes sense, and would carry a story.
Do you know any details about your character's 'story', or are you waiting for the others?

Do you know what sort of gear you wish to build with your Benefits (you don't have to pick weapons from the line-items) or do you need help (I only glanced at the Equipment tables so far), or do you want to wait for the others?

We can deal with Ship Shares once we know what else the Group has access to.

Yes, I think I did very well on those rolls. I did play into my good INT stat, which helped. But I was lucky to never get injured.

I think I'll wait for TrailHead at least to work on a more detailed story.

As for equipment, I've got a bunch of tables to go through :p I might not finish that today.
The rules say I can spend up to 10k Cr on gear on top of my benefits.

It might also be best to wait and see where we start, and what sort of world we are in, that may adjust the TL of the stuff that is available.
TheGenerator says:

From your Benefits, not 'on top of', though. But you did not have any medical debt, so you have your full payouts available.

It is saying you can only spend 10K of what you have, and have to bank the rest for after play starts. I probably won't enforce that very hard if you want to spend a little more.

During play you might have the chance to Broker (or Gamble) prices down when buying, but that should not affect your choices now.

The stuff you buy now is the stuff you start with, and is, in a way, therefore more part of your character's flavour more than their equipment.
Jun 23, 2022 6:07 pm
I meant on top of the gear I got from my benefits already. (A gun, a blade and a cybernetic implant) :)
Those don't count towards the 10k, right?

Right.

Those are also not bound by whatever overall Tech Level we set for the game, they can be higher and you got them from somewhere special on your travels.
