Any skill you think would be useful/cool, mention it here. If you can tag it with a type (smart, tough, charming). Also, lets try to match up new skills of each type with each other.

..That suspect wouldn't be Santa, would it, Chelsea?...

Heh heh.

Skill: Concentration
To be used on an un-cooperative PE Witness like the Tailor (Silk Merchant), Shoe Maker (Podiatrist), Barber, or Banker (Librarian, Calligraphist, Postal Clerk). Gives you 2 free shots everytime you see him/her to analyse a thread, hair, note, or footprint. Doesn't count on contacts.

Just a suggestion.

Hm, how about just getting a "Solve Case" Button.
Everytime you're stuck, just click it and it solves ye case for you :P

I second the idea of a "Solve Case" button. I know some of you will complain about cases becoming too easy, but this could be solved by making them slightly harder. :D

In the game you can deduct footprints, handwriting, hair and threads. How come in a DETECTIVE game, we can't look for FINGERPRINTS? To make it a little harder, several objects on the crime scene can be covered with fingerprints of more than one suspect. This forces you to be a better judge of the situation to check out the relevance of your physical evidence.

Also it would make the game more exciting if the detective can be shot or otherwise attacked by a suspect. Your detective will have to practise shooting or martial arts in order to avoid to be severely injured in the game.

The skill "judge of character" could also be worked out more profoundly. The detective can train to become a "profiler".

I think "blackmail" was already mentioned. It would be nice that the detective could find out some info about political faction leaders to have some cooperation out of them. Even when his standings with a certain faction are bad.

Badass - I think Ben said somewhere that he didnt add fingerprints cause they couldnt really check them back then (in the perioude game is taking place).
But ;) it could be that he said this about DNA lol
