Now the SaVasku can fire officially in excess of the 54" currently granted to human sensors, is there any official word on how they manage to sense their targets? Have the sensor rules been unofficially changed?

This came up in a PBeM game that I am running. Someone had Class-6 Beams (max range 72"). I made a house rule that active sensors had a range equal to the longest, direct fire, weapon. But I kept passive sensors at 36 for identification. It seemed to work well. I figure the cost/mass for larger sensors was incorporated into the cost of the larger weapon. ----- Brian Bell bkb@beol.net

Suspended? I can see it now...

On board an NAC Furious class: Captain: Track and fire on that Foch class! All
weapons that bear! Sensor Tech: I can't sir! Captain: Can't? Explain yourself
mister! Sensor Tech: I can't fire because the entire sensor grid has blinked
out!!
Captain: Zounds! The FSE must have a new weapon! Sensor Tech: Mommy!

Sorry...I just couldn't help myself...:-)
