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 aura (1 hex radius) the fighters take casualties, and it says that the casualties is 1d6. Is that 1d6 static? Or should the number of casualties be the exact same as the defence bonus.
It seems that being attacked by a large squadron (e.g. 32, 64) is extremely detrimental with only being able to shoot down 1d6 each round.
Is the best defence your own fighter squadron or have the point defences got a bit more bite.
Thanks, I feel annoying with this question...
