Default Re: Are Racial modifiers additive

A lot of times a bonus is listed as a seperate line item under ability even though they are additive, sometimes they have the wrong sign infront of them,...
merchant +5% to maintenance???
if you take a 20% bonus on maintenance you would expect to pay 1/5th less maintenance cost, not so. you pay 25% maintenance on ships, and you subtract 20% bonus, you only pay 5% maintenance on your ship.

the only way to check is to start a dummy game and do a little calculating to see what happened.
