Laying out just enough character sheet makes me extremely happy about the early "fuck this skill list" 2e decision
Haha yeah the 1e skill list is...something.
32 long, for a fucking start

You're here for the fic; all of it is also on my personal site.

Me: this information on character progression would be much more graspable if there was an accompanying diagram of the dependencies between various things, I think.
Me: surely there must be some flowchart-type software that can lay this out in a reasonable way?
Flowchart-type software: hm. How about your options are "no", "do you want this to look like an especially ugly academic paper", or "spend a million quid on a Mac"?
Me: I'm sure I remember this entire chain of reasoning from when I did the first edition, how did I take care of it then?
(Looks at 1e)
Ah! Badly
Once again despairing of the circular dependencies inherent in trying to explain a TTRPG. The rules need to reference your character's capabilities, but you can only explain your character's capabilities with reference to the rules! There's no obviously correct way to set it all out so it makes sense.
