ACTA:SF criticals, repairs - what do you get back

[alansa]

sorry if this question has been answered before

I understand that when a critical level is brought down via a repair then hull damage is not regained but critical effects are - including such things as starting shields reductions.

I take it that therefore that any lost traits or marines are recovered too?

 

[alansa]

ok, it says right there in the rule book that traits are recovered.
What about other stuff?

 

[Da Boss]

I would say that Marines would be dead so can't be recovered.

 

[MongooseMatt]

Indeed. They are ex-Marines.

 

[alansa]

Ok how about 'destroyed' weapons? I guess that is an effect that's not reversible either, yeah?

 

[Iain McGhee]

No, those you do get back when the critical causing it gets fixed.

For completeness's sake: You don't get damage points, shield points (starting score can be repaired, but you need to Boost Shields to get the points back), additional critical levels caused by critical effects or the aforementioned Marines that are pining for the fjords back. Anything else can be fixed, unless that system has a critical score of six of course.

Thanks guys. When reading it 'technically'
its not that clear.put on your common sense head though and it all makes sense. Again, many thanks

ACTA tends to be written in a less technical, more easy to read way. Though that can and does lead to differing interpretations.
