[Torg] Skills now....

[Phil Dack]

Am thinking about Torg so I'll throw some more stuff about. It's
all because a member of my gaming group is running a Torg 1-off
for his own D&D group, so he keeps asking my advice on things
which has got my Torg-brain ticking!

I was wondering about skills. In particular Stealth. Why is
Stealth attributed to Dex? Strikes me this is a classic
roleplaying game hang-up with D&D. I can't really think of any
good reason why stealthiness should be linked to manual
dexterity, hand-eye coordination, physical agility or any other
of the classic attributions of Dexterity.

In part it might be because no-one can think of a good
alternative of course! Personally, I could consider slotting it
under Perception but that's probably about all. Just curious
what other people think.

Phil
