Lobster -> More Manual Confusion (11/29/2021 1:33:29 PM)

Another example of how messed up the manual is. We can tell new players to RTFM but oft times the information conflicts with other information or is just plain wrong/confusing. There is no 16.13.1. Goes right from 16.13 to 16.14 and none of it has anything to do with supply. But then again I have not had my coffee this a.m. so...

Edit: HA! Turns out there is a 16.13.1 in TOAWIII manual but not TOAWIV manual. [:(]

Their Effects

These values reflect various Force-wide capabilities.
Some are only directly visible in the Editor, but all
