returning ships to homeworld

[JoeSmokem]

We are playing a campaign and I've had a few ships mauled pretty bad. When I return them to homeworld, is it only the damage that gets repaired or does the crew get replenished as well?

 

[MustEatBrains]

They are completely restocked and repaired.

 

[Greg Smith]

Even fighters and/or raiders.

Yes, this was ruled by Matt, despite the rules "as written" stating that only the damage is repaired.

 

[JoeSmokem]

Does the CQ of the ship drop if the ship was down to the skeleton crew?

 

[Burger]

The CQ drops at the end of the battle, so yes. Returning it to homeworld won't restore the CQ.

 

[MustEatBrains]

So basically, you get a mint-condition ship back from homeworld. I donßt have the rules handy at the moment, but arent upgrades replaced as well?Or am I confusing this with the strange Narn result changing variants?

As far as I've seen it, and we played it in our campaign, the ship comes back with:
1. All damage repaired
2. All crew repaired
3. CQ as it was at the end of the battle. So if the CQ was reduced by being skeletoned then it stays reduced (I'm assuming this is reflective of there being enough of the old crew still alive to continue letting the side down!)
4. Any traits/upgrades the ship had are still present.

Cheers,
Iain.

Yes, you are. Only the free Narn upgrade causes you to lose the refits.

Good! Well, not so good for the Narn most of the time...

You will be pleased to know that refit is going to change in 2e.
