For examplePILOT (Class I): You have sufficient expertise and training to pilot a class I vessel, a shuttle for example.Prerequisite: Int 13+, Dex 10, 1 rank in the pilot skillBenefit: You make piloting rolls, and releated skills, at your full skill level.Normal: Without this feat your are at -4 to all piloting rolls. If you are piloting a vessel you do not have the relevant feat for all combat rolls are at a penalty equal to twice the difference in Pilot Feat Class you and the vessel have. For example Sinclair the diplomat has rank II pilot feat. After a difficult negotiation he is trying to abscound in a Class III Transport. He is at -4 to all piloting rolls and (III-II) the ship is -2 to any combat rolls, even if another member of the crew is firing the weapons. If Sinclair where a pilot trying to fly a ship beyond his ability he will suffer a penalty to his combat pilot bonus.Special: Pilots, Diplomats, Explorers, Mercenary Fighters and possibly Sci-Techs, and Privateers all start off with at least a Class I pilot feat. They have this even if they do not meet the prerequisites, as piloting a shuttle for example is all part of their daily role.PILOT (Class II): You have sufficient expertise and training to pilot a class II vessel, a heavy fighter, for example.Prerequisite: 4 ranks in the pilot skill, Class I pilot FeatBenefit: see Pilot class I FeatNormal: see Pilot class I FeatPILOT (Class III): You have sufficient expertise and training to pilot a class III vessel, a medium transoprter, for example.Prerequisite: 7 ranks in the pilot skill, Class II pilot FeatBenefit: see Pilot class I FeatNormal: see Pilot class I FeatPILOT (Class IV): You have sufficient expertise and training to pilot a class IV vessel, an assualt carrier, for example.Prerequisite: 10 ranks in the pilot skill, Class III pilot FeatBenefit: see Pilot class I FeatNormal: see Pilot class I FeatPILOT (Class V): You have sufficient expertise and training to pilot a class V vessel, a heavy support vessel, for example.Prerequisite: 13 ranks in the pilot skill, Class IV pilot FeatBenefit: see Pilot class I FeatNormal: see Pilot class I FeatPILOT (Class VI): You have sufficient expertise and training to pilot a class VI vessel, a conqueror planetary suppression ship, for example.Prerequisite: 16 ranks in the pilot skill, Class V pilot FeatBenefit: see Pilot class I FeatNormal: see Pilot class I Feat COMBATDefence value, or Armour Class, is the sum of BASE     This, like normal, is always a 10SHIP SIZE                Penalty due to great size, as normalPILOT SKILL                Portion of piloting skill total put into defence adds a insight bonus to ACMANUEVERABILITY       Engines and other factors add a dodgeSHIELDS                Add a reflective bonus to ACBATTLE COMPUTER                Adds an enhancement bonus to defence, as normal Offence value, Attack Bonus, is the sum of              ATTACK ROLL                 A single d20 dice roll, like normalBAB+STAT BONUS  Of the attacker, either in a turret (Dex) or fixed gun (Int)PILOT SKILL                Portion of piloting skill total put into attack adds a insight bonus to attackWEAPON SIZE                Penalty due to great size, as normalRANGE  Penalty due to distance, as normalBATTLE COMPUTER                Adds an enhancement bonus to attack, as normal                If a hit is scored, damage is rolled, and dependent on armour and shields and weapon type this damage will be reduced by DR. Evasion.
