That's different than in the Epitath. There you just get 15 pts. to spend
like Vot Wasted West.

Start skills are a point a level (max. of five) but it costs the new skill
level to improve a skill with bounty points (to go from sneak 3 to sneak 4
is 4 BPs).
I think what the author was trying to say is that if the player wants to
raise his shooting he only pays points for the difference, not the new
skill level. So if he wantd to raise his shootin to 5 (naturally) it would
be 2 pts. (new skill level - "free" skill level = 5 - 3 = 2). Not 5 pts.

I Think.
