There's different percent chances based on weather conditions and time of day.Getting to hunting is not that bad and success chance seems ok. My gripe is that you can't improve your shooting skill when hunting... or in combat (from my experience). And shooting practice just so happens to cost money, because... ammo is precious. And then again, what is the point of 3 different hunting techniques? Just standing there with a crossbow seems to work best and gain the most.

That would be my guess.Hunting with a rifle almost always gains less skin. Too many holes or what is the story?
Up until about 60? When do you train? I start in the morning with full stamina and I almost always succeed up until about 60 as long as I hire a trainer. When I start missing I push the other button to 'push it' or whatever and up until about 80 I again start succeeding about every time.Almost always? Just far too often it so happens to my that I spent 90 bucks on top of 15 for the ammo, only to hear from the trainer that I suck.
I think this is more of a long term game like Daggerfall if you remember that. You don't have to do any training at all to start combat once you know who to hit first and to hire good mercenaries. My current run I started with 30 ranged combat and hired Felix and the Space Marine and cleared the board of all but the toughest nuts the first few days. I use those tribe guys up north as my target practice. I use the thirty-ought and give two to my girls and go up there as soon as we have combat armor. You can get enough for that by doing the easy little missions and the bounties in the first day or so. That's how I do my ranged combat training now!The odds are just too low in many activities. Too much dice-rolling. Instead of difficulty-scaled tasks and missions which will improve your stats as you move along with your story, you have to spend quite some time doing the same thing over and over again, just so you won't get killed at your first combat or your first live-in slave will not laugh at the state of your house or your poor manipulation technique. Which is grinding, even if you don't resort to save-scumming.
My current run I'm 44 days in and without doing a single ranged combat training I raised it from 30 to 51. Juno started at about 25 and is at 37 now. Michelle did better, I think because of 'perfectionist', and went from 15 to 33. Felix and the Space Marine do most of the heavy lifting of course, especially in the beginning, but that force can pretty much clear the board of all but the worst of the targets.
As for the girls, I'm just real nice to them in the beginning. I go for max charm as that is more difficult to come by through books or courses. Therefore I can butter them up nicely as I seldom fail any of the 'talk' options and I don't bother trying to boss them around much at the start. That will come later. Until then I have lots of passionate sex while their willpower slowly drops from using some of the options during sex. I don't miss out on that.
I picked the middle option and used it until I discovered there were 'size queens' with whom I might need the extra bonus. That lasted one game, I decided I didn't need the glowing red phallus in my face all game, size queens be damned. I also suspected there might be drawbacks as well, this seemed to be that sort of game.And there are also some sweet traps set for the player at this stage of the development. I don't recommend outfitting your MC with a Hugh Mungus of a dick if you're into anal. You'll need to prepare the girls' butts for big cock experience first - a bit of realism which I appreciate - using a set of buttplugs, which you can buy but cannot use - a bit of unrealism I don't appreciate. However, you can still ass fuck them when they're in bondage... which they may find pleasurable and happiness increasing, even the rough pace, but which will not improve their love of anal. Only sex without ropes does... which, again, is a bit odd. While there should be a distinction between corporal punishment and sex, for highly corrupted and loving, loyal slaves, this distinction should be blurred. And it is, in text descriptions, but not in 'the numbers' game.
I think overall this is a damned intricate system he has for the sex and ratings. I don't expect perfection in the alphas but am awfully impressed by how it works so far. Takes a little long though, didn't the 'quickie' make it to the twenty-fifth century?
