Damage Control

[Sulfurdown]

Is the Damage Control check for a critical supposed to be an 8+ or a 9+?

 

[Greg Smith]

9. Why?

So far as I know, it's always been a 9+.

I was hearing that it was supposed to be easier in 2E. I wanted to make sure.

All hands to Deck isnow and auto special action... so Dc is a touch easier now.

 

[Sulfurdown]

Ah yes, all is clear now. Danke!

Plus isn't the All hands on deck a +2 bonus now? I thought it was only +1 in 1st Ed. Though I haven't looked at that one in 1st Ed for a few months so I could be mistaken.

Yes you're right Methos.

There was some mention on the forums that damage control was going to be changed to 8+. It never went through, though.

Big ship still get hurt quickly by crits, but at least now there is a chance of getting back to full action when theres no NSA crit on your biggie.

And the Virctory is so lucky. +1 CQ for repairing stuff :S, on top of its other defenses.

 

[Methos5000]

Well the Whitestar Carrier has it pretty good too. +1 CQ (ISA Ranger Bonus), +1 to DC (Self Repair bonus) so with an average CQ of 4 the Whitestar Carrier (or any of the Whitestar class for that matter) would have a CQ of 5 + 1 for DC which means if you use the All hands on deck SA you would automatically repair any repairable crits (not counting Vital crits or crits caused that turn) since your check would be 8+1d6 and you need a 9, you can't fail unless 1s are now automatic fails for repair checks.

That is something seriously nice.......

Unless I missed a change in 2E, the only thing with the AutoFAIL! chance is the attack dice roll.
