8-Styles start

The squadmates only have 5 in a few different stats. As mentioned, they are fledglings.

Could you please list their stats in the description ?

Tested the start just now.
8 Fighters as it should be :)

What on earth...? Well, that's certainly not as intended. I checked the FCS and I can't see any reason for your extra copies. When using this start I don't have this issue myself. I might suggest re-downloading the mod.

Is anyone else generating a clone army with this start?

For the fourth thing yeah, I'm an idiot. In my defense it was 2: A.M.

For the other...

The eighth style is unarmed combat (Martial Arts). Palmer comes equipped with some clothing items that give him small boosts to that skill.

As for the copies you mention, I think what you are seeing are the character templates and their stat charts; so that's two entries per character.

There are only 7 weapon types listed on the wiki. (Blunt, Hackers, Heavy, Katana's, Polearms, Sabres, and Crossbows.) However you have eight listed. Sorry I haven't used this start for a while so I forget the extra. However I do remember that the weapons you picked are good starter ones, as is the start as a whole.

I have also found a problem that there are 3-4 people per type, instead of one. Is this a mistake, a forgotten edit on the workshop page, or some other possibility?

Kral Fried Raptor is finger-licking good.

nice variety bucket :)
