Re: (TFT) New File on Dwarves on Rick's web pages.

Hi Peter,
  I didn't like in the Advantages of Great ST, you only got bonuses for
ST for some armor and that these bonuses only came at rare magic
numbers.

  So ALL armor can now have reduced DX and MA penalties, if you are
strong enough.  There are two numbers: The threshold number where you 
are strong enough to start getting less penalties, and the No Negatives 
number which is at what ST (and higher) that a given set of armor no 
longer gives you any penalties.

  Because dwarves get less MA negatives for armor, the No Negatives
number also has to be reduced to make things work out right.

  Warm regards, Rick

Do you mean a character can reduce attribute levels they already have, or just spend EP equal to 5 points' improvement (or is it 5 times the cost of the next +1)? Does it count as 5 points towards the cost of the next attribute, if you have the ability?
