    Batteries (not the power kind...) I'm supposed to be putting together an outline for the Compendium, which should include rules not in...

    And one more thing: Why on military ships do turrets, barbettes and screens require 2 crew when a small bay can get by with 1? (Note...

    Yes. Agreed. The 'whining' comment was more self-directed, since I could actually work harder at trying to make it happen.
  • Geir
    Agreed. You can't avoid them, but you can make them a little cleaner and less... scattered I think is the word. I'm really glad we got...

    This is true. I just don't want to build 5001 ton destroyers. But a way to potentially balance it would be took look at the cut-offs...

    As I was supposed to be doing something else, I decided to take a look at updating the Spinward Extents books to the 2022 High Guard...

    Depends. From my brief look at it, the basin size of the body of water and any resonance relationship with tidal force periodicity would...

    Geir replied to the thread WBH Tidal Lock DMs.
    You'd think so, but the diameter of the smaller world matters. The bigger it is, the more the differential between the 'near' and 'far'...

    Bella asked me for clarifications on a bunch of these, so hopefully we'll see a document update in the (near?) future.

    Geir replied to the thread WBH Mean Temperature Luminosity.
    You should add them al together, though it will often not add much to the planet's variation in temperature. For a planet that orbits...
