Skills List

The interesting thing about Future Earth is the skills you have. Depending on what class you choose you will have default skills. Other skills you choose based on your mind level. If you use your extra skill options on skills that are already your default then you gain levels within that skill. For instance. If you are a Flyer then Geography at level 1 is already one of your skills. If you use one of your skill points on Geography then you will be Geography level Two and it is written like this: "Geography-2".

FLYERS - Those of this class are usually skilled in operating flying craft and familiar machinery. At high level, flyers are usually skilled at operating ships capable of interplanetary travel. Flyers may not be interested in research or one on one combat. They tend to be quite weak outside of their vehicles, but once in them they are tough opponents using the machines to their advantage. Flyers are weak in primitive cultures as they do not have access to any flying crafts.
