What do each of the three primary attributes affect?

Question

In Sword of the Stars: The Pit there are 3 primary attributes: Might, Finesse and Brains. What does each of these affects?

EDIT: I found out while playing that 10 Might = 6 inventory blocks in a row added horizontally to the inventory.

Answer 1

When increasing your stats (might, finesse, brains) they will increase their derived skills (skills that use same symbol as that stat).

Formula = ("Base Stat"/5) is added to a derived skill when you use it.

Might will also add 6 extra inventory slots for every 10 points put into it.

Skills each attribute affects:

Might :

• Blade
• Knife
• Mechanical
• Melee

Finesse :

• Assault Weapon
• Electronics
• Heavy Weapon
• Lockpick
• Pistol
• Rifle

Brains :

• Biotech
• Computer
• Decipher
• Foraging
• Medical

Answer 2

In addition to affecting the skills associated with the stat (identified by the icon), the three stats also have the following effects (straight from the manual):

Might

Dictates the strength and resilience of the player. It increases the size of your Inventory, your resistance to poisons, your ability to avoid getting grabbed, and the amount of food you can eat to avoid starvation.

Finesse

Dictates the coordination of the player, and while it mostly acts on associated skills, it does help counter certain conditions, such as blindness.

Brain

Dictates the smarts of the player, and while it mostly acts on associated skills – particularly those involved in hacking and repairing machines - it does help counter certain conditions, such as confusion.
