The sheet’s recommendations is for PVP and PVE players.

First Month outlines what you should be training first followed by the necessary skills
to be successful. Items in Red are IMPERATIVE to train as they have great impact on your game. Items in YELLOW show that the skill is a specialty and you should
train the skill that is under your race only. In your ships progression you need to train to cruisers and then just concentrate on supporting skills for a bit. And also focus on your
races weapon and tank of choice, which are not suggested here.
