I was wondering about Skill Packages and Foci.

Under specific skill packages such as Athlete or Academic, it lists Academics {One Sport} and Academics {Choose one}. My understanding of Foci is that in generalized "Academic" action rolls the character who chose Academic and the character that took Athlete would have the same +3 from skill but in there specific focus they would gain an addition +1.

Now if a character took both of those Skill Sets they would gain +6 on generalized academic rolls and then +1 on their specific foci?

Is this the correct understanding of this? Do the Foci in Skill Sets effectively count as purchasing a focus from the Skill Focus Advantage?

Thanks in Advance!

I really appreciate the response stat monkey!

So just to make sure that I understand could you break it down for me?

If i do understand it correctly if I was an acedemic athlete I would have say academic {football } 3 and academic {geography} 3 or would it be academic {geography and football} 6?

Thanks for the answers!

Another question along these lines. say a skill set includes a skill focus (like the Ex-military having medicine{EMT}), does the hero still need to purchase the skill focus advantage for that, or does that come along with the skill set?
