backgrounds
let's start with some objectives to see if we all can get on the same page
- in general, keep them shorter, less tags per background (like it was back in 7609) - keep it simple
- goes hand in hand with the above: avoid uber-backgrounds or at least add the most nasty penalties to them as well
- add tags needed for features accordingly (i.e. doctors should get disease-related tags, someone who's suppossed to be a hacker should get hacking-tag, etc, pp)
- don't hand out AP- and stat-bonus that easy and whitespread as is
- keep most of the bg-names, at least for mercs (i.e. It should stay Wrestler, etc) - reasoning: some consistency should be kept
- especialy for IMP-backgrounds, think of a way to keep the humour but still provide more clear information (i.e. don't name a split-off rebelgroup "Arulcan Rebel", that's misleading, etc)
- use all the unused tags, like give Flo the animal-lover-tag, she's gonna marry to a farm, so she'll need it 😇
and probably more, that's for starters
if there is no major outcry against those objectives, I could start with making a first attempt and post it for discussion
