Hello all,
Before getting started I believe that MgT 1e crew rules are modified CT LBB 5 HG 2e without the Marc Miller approved Consolidated CT Errata corrections or CT Trillion Credit Squadron and that I have quibbles with both CT LBB 5 HG 2e and MgT HG 1e Crew requirements.
To begin my quibble with both CT LBB 5 HG 2e and MgT Book 2 HG 1e is the inclusion of the medical officer in the command section.
CT LBB 5 HG 1e had a separate Medical section that was omitted from CT LBB 5 HG 2e and restored by the Consolidated CT Errata document. CT HG 1e included a medical officer and a corpsman/medic while CT HG 2e had just the medical officer in the Command Section and omitted the medical section that was restored by the Marc Miller approved Consolidated CT Errata, but the nurse was still dropped. In my opinion the medical officer is should be included in the medical section.
On the High Guard Ship Design forum I started a topic Spacecraft Design Crew Requirement Medic, where I was informed that in MgT HG 1e the medical section is part of the service crew. If the medical section part of the service crew I would think that the medical officer would also be counted as service crew.
From Consolidated CT Errata v1.1 02/01/14 p. 15
Page 33, Crew, Medical Section (omission): The paragraph about the Medical Section was dropped:
Medical Section: The ship should have one medical person for every 240 crew persons (including ship’s troops) aboard. The medical section should have 30% officers, and 30% petty officers. Personnel are drawn from the medical branch.
CT LBB 5 HG 1e did not include ship's troops. The organization of ship's troops in both CT LBB 5 HG 1e and CT LBB HG 2e refers you to CT LBB 4 Mercenary that has their medical requirements.
To recap:
My view is that in MgT HG 1e the medical officer should removed from the command section crew requirements and that a medical section be added to the list with a medical officer in charge.
