    Default Training Rules

    I'm not sure if this should go in 3.5 since it's the system I'm going to be using these rules in, but does anyone know of a game or system, that lets you spend money, and go to school, or something like that in order to gain extra skill points, abilities, etc?

    I recall hearing about a game that had it once... I think it might have been hackmaster...and google is drawing a blank for once.

    Thanks for the help!

    Hackmaster requires training for level-up, but does not allow random ability acquisition through training... you have to have the BPs to spend. Palladium's modern games do allow the money and time system, however.

    It was most prominent in Heroes Unlimited, which is actually a good, general introduction to the system.
