Ah, okay, I see where you are going.
For the most part, I agree. There are some oddities though, especially for
those of us who use real paper PCs with stats and try to stick with those
stats as close as possible. Suddenly, tDS isn't going to probably be able
to fire an SMG as well as he could. Someone like the Marketeer, who has no
stats at all, won't really be affected (yeah, I'm gonna give the paraplegic
a Gunnery:10! ;-))
But it is something that can simply be fudged as needed I suppose and
should be one of the easier transitions.
