Another T20 question, if you please, from a prospective ref who has the Player's Handbook but never seen d20 system in action--
What is, exactly, a 'core' class? Specifically, if you take a character who is 18yrs old and stick her in a service (like you would in CT generation), you won't get the (4+int mod)* 4 starting skills that many core classes have. You'll get a lot less. Does this mean that you are (strongly) encouraged to pick a core class first, then send the PC to University or the service or whatever, so you get the xtra points?
Thanx
Courtney
