Table 3-15 Characteristic Aptitudes

By Bayard91, in Only War

In this table, it has three columns. One for Characteristic Names, and two for Aptitudes.

In my digital copy of the rulebook, I only have a list of aptitudes under the third column, but not under the second. Column 1 being Characteristics, Column 2 being Aptitude 1 and column 3 being Aptitude 2.

So, if I want to increase a characters stats, I would always pay the extra experience for only having 1 aptitude in that particular characteristic. Is something missing from my rulebook?

They have somekind issues of not thinking sometimes through on FFG.

Characteristic/Aptitude 1 are one and the same. For example, if you have Strength and Offence you pay 100xp for Simple Strength increase and so forth. only Strength or Offence you pay 250xp for Strength increase.

As Routa-maa said it's basically a bad layout/poor explanation. They just combined the the list of characteristics and the first list of aptitudes because it is litterally reprinting the exact same thing a second time with only the title of the colum changing.

It's the same information in both sources the digital version is just condensed. If it confuses you go with the printed version.

Right on… I'll relay that information to everyone in my group, and anyone I meet who says they are playing/starting Only War.

Thanks!
