Just been having a tinker with the character gen rules and spreadsheet and found a couple of potential issues, assuming I’m not misreading things:
1. The document says to boost half your starting skills to confident, then boost half of those confident skills to expert (or have an extra confident skill instead), but the spreadsheet validation requires you to have extra confident skills equal to the number of expert skills you take. Looks like it’s validating on flat numbers and not taking the intermediate boost to confident before boosting again to expert into account.
2. The validation doesn’t take boosting the initial combat training level into account when calculating how many confident levels you’ve taken.
