Morning!

Just an fyi for you who have the FB (or will be getting it soon;) as I don't
remember anyone mentioning this earlier...

I was looking at the NAC Vandenburg-class heavy cruiser stats and
noticed
that the technical specs list her as carrying a pulse-torp, but the Ship
Systems Display shows no such thing. So I sat down just now and worked out the
mass math. I believe the SSD is correct, that the indicated pulse torp is not
normally mounted on this class of ship. That's correct, right, Jon?

As always, the SSD and NPV are correct (after all, we checked them, right,
Mark?
;-) and the tech data, when different from the SSD, is incorrect :-) I
think the tech data was cut&pasted from the Furious-class escort cruiser
in this case, and not edited enough.

Later,

This is correct. Jon sent me a list of current errata for possible inclusion
with the review I did for MARS. The Vandenburg does not have a pulse torp.

If anyone wants to see the errata for the Fleet Book, please e-mail me
and I'll send it out to everyone later this week.

Or maybe Jon set a few 'errors' in the book to see who the sharper-eyed
pencils in the audience are?  ;-)

Allan,

Please email me a copy of the errata for the Fleet Book. I don't have a copy
of the book yet, but will as soon as it shows up in California.

Enjoy,
