Class Cash

[Eric]

Could some one tell me how much money each class will earn per prior history term? I've found things like Belter Prospecting for a cash bonus, but nothing about a regular paycheck.

Well, you have to roll on the cash table under mustering out benefits, so it varies.

 

[Eric]

Do you still role that if the character hasn't mustered out yet?

 

[lightsenshi]

You would roll to determine what resources (i.e. cash and materials) the character has at the time the player takes over.

 

[msecrest]

No pay per term.

You get any money and equipment when you muster out. This to me represents how much you were able to save over you term(s) of service.

hope this helps.

I agree with the general consensus. The only funds you have are any Cash Bonus and/or class Starting Funds picked up during Prior History as well as your Mustering Out rolls. In my games this represents both material items collected over your life, often related to said career(s) (eg. service uniforms and maybe weapons) and your savings (whatever you don't spend in initial gearing up).

Or perhaps you're looking for some guidelines for an active service campaign? In that case I'd say use the Starship Crew Salries (p. 347) as a starting reference and work from there.
