A few quick questions that have come up regarding the Fleet Book and that I
didn;;t see in the FAQ (which is not to say they are not there)
A) Are the any changes to the specialized fighter attack rules? I assume Torp
fighters apply half damage to armor as per pulse torps? Do interceptors
add their +1 dogfighting bonus against missiles? Does the +1 attack
bonus of attack fighters give rerolls on a five or six or only when the dice
actually reads six?
B) Is the damage from needle beams still regarded as unable to be repaired by
DCP's
C) The summary sheet mentions limited anti-ship capability for PDS, but
no mention is made in the text. What's the scoop?
By the way I absolutely love the fleet book and the new rules. Greajob Jon.

Yes
Does the +1 attack bonus of

Rolls of 6 only.
> B) Is the damage from needle beams still regarded as unable to be
Yes. Loss of a system at a threshold check can be considered as
potentially-repairable damage to control runs, power feeds, targetting
arrays or whatever, whereas damage by needle beams is specifically physical
damage to the actual system (eg: blowing the weapon mount to bits!).
> C) The summary sheet mentions limited anti-ship capability for PDS,
The rules in the summary chart are valid as written.
