Out of Character: I know what you mean but there is nothing wrong with suggesting it. For all we know they could be just choosing at except for their core skills from the class they choose.
Out of Character: So long as you let them know its optional and not a have to then I guess that can work.
Out of Character: Yeah but its way better to wait than be in the jungle and suddenly you get JB killing out your crew because they chose not to show up in time.
Out of Character: You know what might be cool, having threads here detailing the equipment because we really don't know all the capabilities and might be missing out on what our characters could be doing.
Out of Character: That will be helpful unless JB can make the descriptions in the equipment section better but seems like it could be a lot of work.
Out of Character: I doubt everything could fit in there. Having it on one page does not allow for discussion over it either.
Out of Character: I saw JB's reply to you so it looks like we will get some deeper information or at least maybe a place to deliberate it so we can make better use of the equipment.
