Rule notes

Official Runlings:

This objective can change a regular skill that does not actually appear in a skills box, but was added by an Equipment card, Mot’s Advice, etc. If the personnel is separated from the Equipment card, or Mot's Advice is nullified, discard the Reflection Therapy objective, because the target skill no longer exists.

The new skill may be selected only at the x1 level. If the replaced skill is at the x2 level, the entire skill is replaced. For example, you may change Honor x2 to Treachery. See present, Assign Mission Specialists, skills - modifying.
