Yes, we gave up on that as soon as I found out what he was doing and took his character sheet away :)

Thanks. Page reference? (Yes, the players are likely to demand evidence, since I'd been increasing the skill to the higher +1).

Just a sec. So she'd be better off using her Archery with the default -3 improvisational modifier than she would be using her straight skill? Or did her archery suddenly leap to 12 when she learnt Javelin?
Again, any chance of a page reference for this one?

Yes... the question was "what is the rule?", not "what is the name?", but thanks for the thought.

in any given scenario. Maybe the limit will go up later, but that's
quite enough for now.
