I've been working on a rebuild on TSSMSR for a few weeks and everything that I can get done on my own is almost done. I've removed a couple MOS selections while adding a few, I've switched from giving a number of free PerkPoints to the player and letting them build their character with little to no direction, and I've changed it so that:
1) The Service Branch Selection will grant a Branch specific custom perk with effects and two perks that help represent that Service Branch's training emphasis.
2) The Commission Selection will grant a Commission specific perk with effects and two perks that best represent either officer or noncom training.
3) The Rank Selection will grant a Rank specific custom perk with no effects and a number of bonus PerkPoints equal to the rank you selected.
4) The MOS selection will grant one custom perk with no effects and three perks that I feel best represent that specific career choice.
5) The Advanced Training will grant one custom perk with no effects and three perks that best represent that specific advanced training program.
6) The Combat Deployments will grant one custom perk with no effects, one or more custom perks with effects, and a number of bonus levels.
If you want to see the specific perks that have been paired with each selection, I have it all detailed over in the forum section.
I have been working with Ninja2dan and we're set to start working with a pair of artists to create custom perks icons for every custom perk, but that will likely take a little time since there are 336 custom perks so please bear with me. Based off the recommendation of Caoimhin I will likely hold off updating the Horizon version until Horizon v1.9 is released.
If anyone wants to join in the discussion, help out, or is interested in the design process feel free to join us over on the discord.

Does this affect both Nora and Nate?
