Talk:Second Sphere Transgenic Rules

Ideas-

Atrophied Statistics

Some particularly specialized transgenic caste systems found in the Rim hyperspecialize their people towards one end, neglecting all others.

Reducing a primary statistic by 1 using genetic engineering reduces the cost of the Template by 2 points, while reducing one by 2 (making them completely useless at the category in question) reduces it by 4 points. These reduce the total cost of the transgenic upgrade's integration as well.
