Modular Missile Rules

MODULAR MISSILE RULES
------------------------------------------------------------------------
---

I like drones in Star Fleet Battles(tm). I like the multitude of options
available. I also like missiles in Full Thrust. So here are my rules to make a
multitude of different missile types in Full Thrust.

RULES:

There are a few components that make up a missile.

* Drives * Fuel
   * Guidance/Targetting
* Warhead(most important of all)

To build a missile you just need to select the items from the appropriate
section and add them up to get a missile.

NOTE 1: You can only have one drive and one targetting system. Warheads and
fuel tankage can be duplicated. For warheads, just calculate dammage from all
warheads as one big attack, ie if 2 "normal" warheads are on a missile, the
damage done is 4d6. For fuel tankage, just add the capacity of all up and
calculate range accordingly

NOTE 2: Any fractional points/mass is rounded "up"

NOTE 3: Maximum mass for a missile is 5. *DAF versus mass 3 and 4 missiles
get a +1 bonus, mass 5 CANNOT be damaged by *DAF (they're too stinking
big). Missiles with a mass of 4 or 5 CAN be targetted with beam weapons but
are treated as if they have level 3 shields for mass 4 level 2 for mass
5.

                  Warheads
	 Type  Mass  Cost   Notes
	 Normal .5   1.5    See More Thrust
	 EMP	.5   1.5    See More Thrust
	 Needle .5   1.5    See More Thrust
	 FTL	.5   5	    Used to make 1 FTL jump for two purposes:
1. REALLY long range missiles
                               2. Possible jump mis-hap damage
	 Decoy	.5  12.5    Used for deception as in Full Thrust

                          Drives
   Type      Mass  Cost  Efficiency	   Notes
   Normal     .5   1.5   3/.5       Uses rules in More Thrust
   Fast       1    4.5   1/.5       Moves 24"/turn
   Agile      1    4.5   2/.5       Can execute 2pnt turn at first of
move, then 2pnts at mid point of move
   Fast-Agile 1.5  10    1/.5       Combine the two above

Efficiency is in turns per tonnage of fuel
