Two quick questions related to starship combat. Can starships gain a crossfire bonus (+1d6)? For a PC flying with their starfighter into another ships point defence Aura, are there any checks/attacks that need to be made or is it always a guarenteed 1d6 damage? Thanks, haven't seen much...

I remember there was a link for a starship generator called something like Wrigleys Copendium or something, that generated a catalog of old ships with issues but at heavily discounted prices. Would love to have something like that again for my current group but cant seem to find the link in...

So the Seeker upgrade gives a +2d6 bonus on top of weapon quality to attacks but can only be used once per round. Does this mean that the weapon can only be shot once per round (Every shot being a seeking shot), or that you can take 2 shots each round with one being a seeking shot? I could see...

So sometimes PCs can be capped on a roll from the first session the whole way to the last. One of my players was still capped after an entire year of play which sort of felt like a bummer, felt like a waste of expertise if it could never be utilised. I see this also in my new WOIN game as one of...

System override. You remotely accessanother ship’s control computer, and brieflytake a system offline with a LOG vs E-DEFENCEattack. One shield facing, or one weapon,can be deactivated until the beginning of thetarget ship’s next turn, at which point it isautomatically reactivated...

So now you can trade attack dice to damage dice at a 1:1 ratio. Am I wrong but I vaguely remember that you could trade damage dice to attack dice too at a 1:1 ratio. Thanks in advance

One of the big things that players can sink money into is starships. But what about setting up and funding a fleet? A network of spies to infiltrate and sabotage enemy corporations? Creating a bounty hunter agency to take on small jobs bringing in a steady flow of income. Securing mining rites...

[*=2]"Weapon integration. The android has some kind of ranged or melee weapon integrated into its body. Choose a weapon from the core rules. The weapon must be the same size category as the android or smaller, and worth 100cr or less. Thisexploit can be taken multiple times to incorporate...

So starship weapons convert 1d6 starship damage = 10d6 ground damage. A basic Chen Zua weapon with 1d6 ballistic damage (10d6) costs 3,000 cr. Comparatively, The:Blitzkrieg XX-1 Railgun In Pimp my ride does 9d6 ballistic damage and costs 120,000cr. That's 1d6 less damage than a standard Chen...

First off, Starship weapons can only be fired once per round and each round is one minute. Correct? So a ship weapon should only be able to be fired once every 10 rounds when on the ground against non-starships (PCs etc.) Now, taking a starship weapon, get the turret upgrade, dedicated computer...

A reason to get better quality shields: The PC or NPC chooses to take the hit from an attack that he knows he can't dodge, drops his weapons and uses both hands to hold his shield and weathers the onslaught. Using the current rules, there is no benefit from doing this. But, I feel that it may...

So my group is about to be ambushed by a fighter squadron. Now, they have a Class III freighter, and 3 Defence lasers, with an Aura of 1. So the defence bonus is Point defence/Ship Class. +3 defence for these poor bois. Defence Bonus understood! Now, when a fighter squadron flies within their...

An up to date starship record sheet. Hope it is useable for your group or inspires you to make your own.

There are quite a few 'skin tight' light armors that cost a lot but offer less soak. Would it be reasonable to say that you could stack like a Combat Skin with a Kevlar vest, both light. Into one resulting in 8 but becomes a Medium class armor. Reminds me a bit of Cyberpunk 2020 where you can...

Using the Young trait, declare damage to explode. Damage also has some luck thrown in. Getting a 6 on a luck die, can you double re-roll? E.g. 3d6 + 1d6 Luck = 4-2-5-1 6!(3+4) (the 6 got a double explode) How does that sound?

I'm just your typical power gamer, I love making builds that can be game breaking (Not really game-breaking, but can really shake it up if you have a good GM) SO! You're making a Grade 5 PC. You're a large android or Ogron. Buy an over-sized two-handed sword, now size enormous. When you can buy...

So the main thing I wish to know is how the size of a starship weapon impacts the choice. The sizes range from S-E but it's not clear on what this limits as there is no correlation between size and CU cost. Is there an unwritten rule where ships from Class 0-1- 0-5 can only use small, class 1...

Quick question about helmets. I take it that a helmets armor doesn't go up with increased quality otherwise they can become extremely Over-powered very quickly. So, why ever get a helmet that is above standard quality? Do battlesuits already have a helmet on them? Small questions, big...
