(TFT) Things to spend exp on.



Hi Jeffrey,
  I agree, this is one of the things I like about Dark City's Games remake
of TFT.  I like that you can spend exp on more things than attributes.
(Which is also an advantage in GURPS.)

  Of course, in my campaign, there are also superscripts which are 
att

  In my campaign, I have several other places that exp can be spent on,
but they are playtest stage, not for prime time.

  Warm regards, Rick.
