Ok, maybe "shortly" was a bad choice of a word. I don't mean they all
hit racial max in three or four gaming sessions. But they tend to
eventually. As for Karma awards. I'd say I average 1-3 per player each
session. One or two players have even said I'm too light on awards,
but it averages out in the end.

You cap out at 2. Individual limits are 1.5x starting attribute
(rounded up).
1 --> 2
2 --> 3
3 --> 5
4 --> 6
5 --> 8
6 --> 9
And so on...

Karma costs and racial max's are per BBB. Those who are able may
exceed to 1.5x racial max at double karma cost over racial max.

Makes cyber/bioware or increase att spells a little more important,
don't it? :o)
