2300: stutterwarp efficiency

[Lemnoc]

Maybe I’m missing something obvious, but I’ve looked and looked for what the values represent on the stutterwarp efficiency tables on pp. 308 and 309. You've got tonnage against drive rating, and an expressed value. I assume the values represent ly / day, but nowhere—that I can find—are these values explicitly stated.

Is this correct?

A little frustrating!

Correct. Tactical speed is this doubled. You need to calculate two values for each ship, the loadad and unloaded value. Loaded value is the total tonnage and unloaded is tonnage minus any tonnage allocated to cargo (not an exact way of calculating it, as the "tonnage" is actually displacment, not mass, but it gives a consistent method for all ships).

Understood all that, thanks.

Ideally the tables should have a key.
