I realize that anyone can tinker with this, and change the “Controlling Stat” depending on the “Culture” of the Entity/Institution. Someone can just change the INT to a CON and say this group doesn’t innovate and they simply pour ungodly amount of hours to their work. Or they don’t use CON, they use CHA instead because there is enough skill and resources and coordinating these (with relationships) is what determines Survival or Advancement.
Its world building when the Player or GM decides to change the values.
Note I’ll be using 3d6 instead of 2d6 and Using 8 instead of 7 stats. Str, Dex, End, Int, Edu, Soc and Psi is replaced with Str, Dex, Con, Int, Wis, Cha, Soc and Psi.
Actually I just realize I can just roll a d6 to choose the Stat with this criteria when I’m stuck, this Criteria can be used as a justification. Navy is… rolling 1d6, 3 = Con to survive. naval security operations is a lot of long hours of inspections, checking and maintenance in distant outposts with a lot of DIY. or I can roll a 6, its Cha – and Navy is about cultivating a team/schmoozing to survive.
