We had yet another test game of FT racing last night with 2 ypes of ships,
human and modified SV tech. The two groups were mostly separated so they
didn't interact with one another.
On thing that came out of the race was that power for SV weapons would have to
be modified so it wasn't as deadly at close range but also had a longer range.
The modification we made was to make the power requirements 2 per range band
per deam die. The range bands are being kept to 3".
We're using a max ship size of 35 mass.
Construction and System Rules:
Using Sa'Vasku constuction rules with following modifications:
1) No FTL 2) No Drone wombs 3) No Pod Launchers 4) Screen nodes
- minimum 2 mass
- 3 arcs of coverage
- act as class 2 screens and can take 2 threshold checks loosing
one lever per failure 5) Cortex nodes
- now are used together like firecon/bridge/damage repair
control (each cortex allows you one action: manuever, fire at one targer,
attempt repair one system) 6) Life support listed as core system same as Human
Tech
- require 3 power for repair roll
7) Main drive
- No longer advanced
8) Stinger nodes
- range bands are 3"
- power requirements are 2 x rangeband per die
- can take 2 threshold checks, doubling power requirements per
die like main drive damage 9) Repair
- require cortex node assigned to repair
- power requirements same as standard SV rules
- no biomass required
