CHARACTER GENERATION

Please refer to the FUZION rules for the following information:

     Characters must create their characters in a specific order to ease the creation and to be fair and prevent using loopholes.  Please refer to the FUZION rules included for the following information:

 Unchanged.  Characters must be at least 18.
 It is assumed the PCs join the military at that point.  However they can realistically join the Military any year past 18 that they want.  The maximum final age for a starting character is 35.  As you will read later, the max skill for starting characters is “+6”.  With the bonuses for Military training below, coupled with this skill cap, it may be advantageous for a starting character at 35 to join later and extend his lifepath, giving change for more windfalls and dangers.
 Roll for every year as stated but GM discretion for traumas.  Ignore “Current Situation”.

NOTE:  For character creation, skills have three stages to them…so they are placed after Perks, Talents, and Complications.  ALL skills in character creation have a cap of “+6”.    No matter how many bonuses the character earns during lifepath  of Marine training, this +6 remains.  So there is some strategy to character creation.  HOWEVER, a Player can choose  one military skill and up to two lifeskills up to +7.

NO ORIGIN PATH

CHARACTERISTICS

Character Points: 55 points.  The GM can consider up to 65 but I feel it might lower game enjoyment.

    All Optional Derived Characteristics should be used.

Option Points:  50 points.  The GM can consider up to 60.

COMPLICATIONS

The GM should avoid hefty problems since the CMC is an elite force.

 GROWING SKILLS
     First, a player must spend OP on “growing skills.”   These are skills the player develops in life before joining the Military.   The reason these points are spent before the Marine training below is because some skills are REQUIRED for Marine training or can effect the path of the PC in their career.
     However, don’t spend all your points since every two years in the military costs 3OP (see below).  Obviously the most important skill for advancing in the Marines is leadership.  Choosing that ahead of time can be advantageous.  But other points apply.   If a PC has a certain skill, or carries it with a certain experience, they don’t need to choose it in the path as determined below.  All “Growing Skills” have a cap of “+3” at this point.  Players can increase them later.  They cannot choose Military skills, Life skills only.  All skills are listed at the back of this section.

CHARACTER TEMPLATE  --NEW RULE--

      The PC enters the CMC…and everything changes.  Each Character chooses a path every TWO years of service.  The first choice MUST not by career.  The templates labeled CAREER are paths the PC have taken because he/she decided on a future in the Marines.  When a career is picked, no other paths may be chosen.  Every two years, the PC enters the same career again.
      Each template has special rules unique to its own.  There are skills listed that the character gets as a bonus as well as skills the Player must spend OP on (3 OP each template).  The Player may not allot anymore OP to other skills not in the template (they can do that later).  Money is allotted for each path chosen.  Every Non-Career option has a Career mirror (Aerospace – Starship, Infantry--OCC).  The PC can dabble in a variety of fields but should choose a final career dependant on the character’s history eventually.  A tank pilot can switch to OCC but has very few skills useful going in.
     Also listed in each template is a rank structure.  Every year the PC is in this path he has a chance to go up in rank (ranks are listed in the USMC/CMC section and below.  All players start at the bottom.  The Rank listed in the non-career template is the highest rank available in that path.  Career paths have a starting rank but no ceiling rank.  When you move into a career path for the first time, you take this immediate rank.  Even though the CMC chapter lists ranks to Admiral, obviously starting characters cannot reach that.  The top rank achieved is listed with the Rank structure below.
     Each year requires a Leadership roll (Uses PRE + skill).  If above the DV, the new rank is established.  If not, the rank is carried over the next year.  The DV then drops by 1 and then an additional 1 every following year.  When a new rank is established, the DV returns to normal.  Only when the Character's Rank reaches his current ceiling can he roll to get the jump to a CAREER OR stay and keep pumping points in what the character has, but promotions are no longer available.  Promotions can always be refused, of course (GM discretion).  If the PC, at a ceiling rank, chooses a path, and successfully rolls for promotion, they don’t roll a second time, nor do they JUMP into the career.  They must finish their term, then start in their new Career next time.
     Also, if you choose a career but decide against it later, you have to bust yourself back down to the starting rank of the new career.  No PC can take more that THREE careers…the third must be the career of choice.  The PC is stuck there unless they want to be discharged.

 NOTE ON LIFEPATH (Fuzion, page 5):  PCs roll for lifepath THROUGH the Marines.  The GM must work lifepath into the Marine path.  As a result…

SOMETHING GOOD
     …Mentor:  Allows the bonus skill in ANY category, Military or not.
     …Favor:  Player option…can keep the favor into the game OR get a +2 at the next Promotion DV roll and +1 in ANY skill, military or not.
     …Membership:  +4 to the every Promotion DV roll until the next promotion.

 SOMETHING BAD:
     …Imprisonment:  GM discretion or roll D6:  1-3 – Held Hostage, 4-6 – Imprisonment.  If held hostage, the PC may be awarded a POW medal or a Purple Heart (The GM may also add a +1 to the Promotional DV roll next year).  If imprisoned, the PC is reduced ONE rank and the DV for the next promotion increases by FIVE.  Either situation, the PC is returned before the year is out.  They also loose two of their bonus skills of the template for that path (two years, PC’s decision).
       …Falsely Accused:  Same as imprisonment above.  Develop an enemy.   D6 is rolled:  1-3 – Acquitted, 4-6 – sentenced for a year, is reduced 1 rank and the DV for the next promotion increases by 5.  They also loose two of their bonus skills of the template for that year (two years, PC’s decision).
     …Accident or Injury:  Purple Heart awarded.

    Ranks during gameplay are run using experience (see CMC section for details).
      The PC stops choosing paths when he/she has run out of OP or has run out of life (Age).  If the Character runs out of life, he/she is considered an up and coming officer.  Running out of OP means the character hasn’t done much in his/her career since.  You cannot choose a path if you do not have the OP to spend on its skills.
     After all your templates are done and have OP leftover, you can spend those are your usual skills or on any of the skills you have already chosen.  The only military skills available are the ones you already have.  You cannot take APC pilot if you have never taken the path.  However, if you have three OP leftover, you have one point in APC pilot, and then you can jump it up to four if you want.  Any OP you spend before choosing your first path can be spent on life skills but no military ones.  Military skills are those listed in the templates below (with an “M” beside them).  All life skills are listed after the templates.   Some “M” skills are not military but since all PCs will be in the Marines (or assumed, there are exceptions), these are skills they can only develop through military channels.
     The GM should consider a maximum number of templates for each character.  I recommend 6 or 8.  This also caps a maximum age.  A maximum starting skill for a player should be 7.  Leave some room for improvement later.  The path the Character has taken the most is his/her position.  If they are all equal, choose one and keep it.

SPECIAL PATH
COLONIAL MARINE SPECIAL FORCES

   Within every military force there are the typical foot soldiers, then there is the elite troops. The Colonial Marines are no exception. Following the traditions of the United States Marine Corp. The Colonial Marines included the marine special forces; Marine Force Recon, and the sapper, Marine Combat Engineers. Refer to the CMC chapter later for details on descriptions.
     The Colonial Marine Corp of Engineers has established a reputation as an elite unit, as Marine Force Recon. These specialists handle the most hazardous demolition tasks - demolishing strongpoints, clearing mine fields, preparing landing zones and laying bridges - all while under fire. It would be impossible to list all of the equipment available to the combat engineers here, though items include all manners of demolitions, mine plows, deep core drills, portable aerospace strips, etc.

    Special Rules for Special Forces:  Unlike other templates, Special Forces carries requirements.  A Player wishing to submit their Character for this elite must have the following:

 --Four years of Infantry or Heavy Weapons (two paths).
 --Be Lance Corporal or higher.
 --Strength and Body, Willpower and Constitution must be at least “4”
 --Cannot have ANY major Complications that may hinder the Marine in the field.

     When a PC chooses one of the starting paths (Force Recon or Combat Engineer), they are stuck there.  It is assumed that if they make it in…they stay.  Special Forces personnel don’t leave to be Starship pilots.  When you enter the elite, you have a certain reputation to live by.  Unless kicked out, you stay (GM can void this rule though).  Also, you can only pick Special Forces for two paths ONLY.  You can move to and from Force Recon and Combat Engineer but you cannot (for game balance) take either at more than two years total.  This may seem drastic, but the PC must spend more OP each path than usual so it balances somewhat.  You either stop, or move onto Force Recon Career.  Force Recon Career also carries the same restriction.  Not everything is roses for Special Forces however.

 --DV for promotion is +2 higher for every rank.
 --Five OP must be spent each year instead of Three (see below).
 --After the first Path taken, the PC is slapped with a “5” point “Infrequent” Marine Code of Honor complication (NO    OP bonus).  If the PC enters the Force Recon Career, that dishes out another 5 points on top of that.     However, this special case does NOT hamper combat at all.  It is meant to fortify this Marine’s attitude to    Marine conduct.

     Also, upon entering Force Recon (not Combat Engineer), the PC MUST spend the 12 OP for Marine Hand to Hand.  Entering Force Recon Career can be for NCO and OCC…meaning when you choose Force Recon - Career, you must decide to go into Force Recon NCO or Force Recon OCC.
