Is there a brief précis of the changes, please? I've downloaded the update, but would find a summary of changes useful.

What is the time increment for ship construction? Page 8

Square root of hull tonnage but is that seconds, days, month , years?

For the most part it’s great I’m especially happy to see the refit rules fixed. The only problem I see is the nuclear damper. Under the NDs description it states “ A successful use of a nuclear damper against a fusion weapon or salvo of nuclear warheads (whether they are on missiles or torpedoes) reduces its damage by 2D and removes the Radiation trait. Against Destructive weapons, every five nuclear dampers reduce damage by 1DD and remove the Radiation trait.” Which would mean you’d have to have 5NDs to reduce any damage since ship nukes do 1DD but under screens it states this “ Make a Gunner (screen) check for each screen. Every successful check reduces the damage of the attack by the amount indicated in the Damage Reduction column of the Screens table multiplied by the Effect of the check. A gunner may only angle screens against one attack per round.” The two are fairly counter dictating.

And of course only half the ships tonnages match up
