CT Only: Character Generation and added skills

[infojunky]

Flipping through the LBBs one notices that a bunch of skills are added. And if one like I sticks with basic generation how do you add these new skills in?

I have generally let players add a skill they feel they need or allow them to switch out as per their preference.

How do you handle it?

I treat many of the added skills as special cases of existing skills - if you have Fwd Obs or Tactics then you can do stuff indicated by the Recon skill; Liaison, Streeetwise, Carousing - all the same 'skill' really modified by social class. I allow Batttle Dress to be picked up from the vehicle cascade for Army and marines - that sort of thing,
