You were placed in the second battle group.  Whenever I do poorly I usually
like to think that I would've gone 7/7 in the next, lower power level
battle group. :)  I just started a new guy, too, and he only got 28 EP in
the battle group above yours.

I can't really offer specific advice on EP spending as I don't know what your
stats are or what your general strategy is.  In the beginning, I'd stick with
raising stats only.  I've never spent EP for weapon points as you can get
those free through use.  Concerning EP spending for skills, I usually
pick one skill and specialize in it (get it to at least level 3) before
picking up another skill or spending EP on stats.

I usually spend initial KP on mind wall to trained, then combat sense to
level 1.  After that, it's whatever KP skill you want to specialize in.
