Has this question been answered? I don't see how to do this math, i.e., what is the order of operations? Are they all just done individually then added? Does one type of modification affect another? If so, which ones? A full breakdown of how one of the ships in the book was made would have been...

So, I see an example of one in the updated book (pages 12 & 13), but not an actual, usable character sheet. Is there one?

I have that book and I don't know which weapon you are referring to. Could you tell me? Pretty-please? *bats eyes* How about if missiles were treated like turrets? My triple missile turret fires off my missiles* and 6 hit. Instead of that being, what 4Dx6 (ave. 84) in damage, it is 4D+20 (ave...

Personally, I don't see why a rack cannot fire off more missiles. Each combat round for space combat is 6-minutes. Me (meaning modern Earth militaries) have missile launchers that toss out scores of missiles in a single second. If a combatant wants to dump all of their missiles in a single...

OK, so I was wrong - no surprise there. That is even better for me. Still don't know how to sign up and all that though.

OK, as I am new to all of that, but am interested, how do I sign up? And, are characters going to be made during the first session? Pre-session? Bring in premade PCs? Unless I am wrong in my time calculation, 4PM GM+1 means 9PM for us east coast USAers. Right?

A turret fires one per turret per volley, so long as each turret* is a missile turret. (Duh. :D ) So, a single turret fires one, a double fires two, triple = three, and the quad = four. A barbette fires 5, and the bays are as follows: small = 12, medium = 24, and large = 120! They say that...

Yippie!

Has this been done? I don't see it on the site. I am looking for the 2300 being updated to the 2nd edition, particularly CharGen and ShipBuild. Is this being done?

Thanks guys. I guess that means that there isn't something already out there, huh? That's cool. I get to create one. Hippie!

...or make one up. OK, so I have built a large vessel, dedicated to mining (converted the Leviathan-class merchant cruiser, actually) and want to name it. Now, I am looking at naming it after an animal - specifically Vilani or Sylean in origin - that would be analogous to the Terran mole, or...

Thanks, good to know.

OK, I did snort-laugh at that.

The more I learn about the space combat of this system, the less I like it. So many little fiddly bits that are hard to find and if you don't, it doesn't seem to make much sense. There is the nugget of some good stuff in there, I just think that they should have made it a bit easier and just...
