Neural rewiring draft

Part of the Agent training guide

A neural rewire lets you move one skill point of an agent to another skill. Agents earn rewires on University courses.

• You spend rewires while the agent is in your deck.
• One rewire moves one point. You take it from one skill and give it to another.
• Two rewires add one point to a skill, with nothing taken from another.
• No skill can go above 12.
• No skill can go above the agent's main skill.
• You can take points from the main skill. The other skills must then fit under its new value.

For example, with two rewires:

two points moved: skills 5, 3, 1 → 7, 2, 0
one point added: skills 5, 3, 1 → 6, 3, 1

Adding suits an agent with no points to spare. Five rewires add two points and move one.

An agent with a rewire left takes no new duty. You cannot make it a governor, send it to the field or send it back to a school. You cannot sell it either. Spend every rewire first, or discard the ones you do not want.

Discarded rewires are lost for good. The agent's skills stay as they are.
