Ship Trait Bonuses List?

[CrispyGM]

Hello Travellers,

While the ship entries in all the books are indeed very fancy and organized with the data, I was wondering if there's been a published list of bonuses for easy lookup so I don't have to either print out a ship sheet and write them all down or look them up? There's bonuses for Holographic Controls, different Sensors, etc and they're not normally listed in each entry. Just looking to save some time.

Thanks!

I suspect the answer is no. I thought something like that might be on the Referee's Screen. The Referee's Screen does have tables for 'Spacecraft Scale Weapons' (with traits shown) and 'Common Modifiers' for spacecraft but none of the bonuses you are interested in are on those tables.

Maybe a space craft operations & combat referee screen would be a good tool?

Yep, although I use a range grid (someone else made) for starship combat and it has lots of relevant stuff on it (sensor ranges and capabilities, weapn ranges and modifiers, action sequence etc). That way the whole group can see them.

Would be interested in seeing it...

Sure thing! I mostly use this one for working with the players in fight, these days, but it lacks the sensor info. I love that it has two directions of hexes, which comes in handy a lot where one ship (or group thereof) is screening another:

This one is excellent as well, and has brilliant visualisations for both sensors and weapon ranges. But it's a little dull-looking in comparison, is littered with Spanish translations (not a huge issue but cluttered) and it lacks the flowchart for where in the turn we are, so I am more prone to forget a step in the middle of a big fight (next Wednesday's one will have either seven or eight ships in it, which will be a challenge to run quickly...)



Then there is this piece of insanity, which I do not recommend, since you have to keep a separate note of ship ranges and work that out manually each round. It also has too much info on it, I think:



And finally, for a simple version for those who just really want to track positions, there is this:


I would source each, but I just found them online, in the main, and none has any (c) or even author info. If I ever get the time and energy I am going to steal the map and turn tracker from the first one and mix them with the sensor and weapon range info from the second one.

I cannot stress enough that none of these are by me. See above comments on time and laziness for clarification.

Thank you! Much appreciated
