Stealth Jump Flare Detection

lol. Why even bother with non stealth jumps at that point. There's not a military or scout ship in the game that shouldn't have it.

By ships, likely not. By stations, definitely. Not sure how the rule works, but starports detect jump flash up to a parsec away, but don't know about for 3.26 years. That is from the Deepspace Explorers Handbook. HG says 5,000,000+km a jump flash can be detected, but it doesn't give an upper limit. The CRB gives rules that at Minimal Sensor Range, a normal jump flash is always detected. None of the rules seem very clear on any of this. Not in MgT2 anyhow.

It is. I found the answer in Behind the Claw. It should be +3 but your spreadsheet has it at +2.

I was going to cite this as well- the Vincennes sensor suite
