== Skill Maximums ==
'''TODO:''' Explain skill maximums more.

The average natural skill cap is supposed to be around 150 on the average, but characters that skilled are uncommon. Many large veteran gangs have only 2-4 people capped over 300, out of their 60+ gang members.  Skill caps above 400 may happen once (if at all) for the life of the whole gang.

If you pay money to hire a character there is a slightly greater chance you will hire someone with a lower skill potential than if you used your leader to get a free hire<ref>http://www.dark-wind.com/forums2/index.php?a=topic&t=5595 Forum Discussion - see page 2</ref>.  In other words, the free gang member each week has a slightly better chance to cap higher than bought gang members.

A character's skill cap applies to all of that character's skills.  So, if a character hits his maximum in Gunnery at 94, he will hit that same maximum in any other skills he trains in.  A ganger may get another point in a skill once they hit the cap, due to rounding of the hidden 'cap' value.

Leadership is not affected by the character's skill cap.
