I am not asking for anything to be done, just if there were plans for anything to be done.
That is - not looking to add work for anyone, just wondering if someone already had that work on their list.

Sounds like a 'no', which is fine. It isn't a big deal and it is an error that is easy to remember ...

For those ship cards - which are online - which have disruptor charts on them - the range 1 'to hit' numbers are wrong.

They show disruptors hitting on a 1-6.

They should show disruptors hitting on a 1-5.

For example.

Disruptor Charts

Are there any plans to fix the disruptor charts for the online ship cards?

I am looking at the range 1 "to hit" numbers.

I'm with Mike on the timing issue. IF there is ever a rules change, and IF that rules change is to have seeking weapons all drop tracking at some point, then I'd like to see it be the end of the turn.

The end of the turn is important for darn near everything else, why not this as well? We look ...

At some point we need a large group effort to actually balance the points (probably will never happen, but it is badly needed). A SB with 8 sensors and a SB without 8 sensors are exactly the same point value. That is just nuts. I agree with your overall premise, but I think that the "free" sensor ...

Nothing wrong with trying something new. It is worth trying to see if a standoff attack would work.

If you can get the job done with cheap drones without risking your expensive ships, then it is worth pursuing.

The only adjustment I would make within the range of that experiment is to not worry ...

They are used only for training purposes in computer simulations. Even within the make believe world of Fed Com, they are a make believe race.

If you accept Federation or Klingon ships as being "real", Frax ships are still not real.

pulling out a "panic fire" volley with the +4 shift by fading in and then fading back out . Trying to figure this out. Starting fully cloaked, I declare fade-in on impulse 2. Impulse 3 the enemy does indeed panic and fire at a +4 range penalry....Are you saying that I can then declare fade-OUT ...

Are these based off of the old SFB Qari Scud missiles?

Cloak and fading and limits

If a ship starts the turn cloaked, and then fades in, can it cloak again that turn? I know the rules say you can only fade in/fade out once per turn, but the rules don't say if starting the turn cloaked count as your "fade out"...yet I thought i remember reading that it does.

I don't understand the nomenclature here.

on each of the 40 lines, you have a placeholder number, a racial name, and a ship/unit name. Got it.

But what is -
Main product 1
Main product 2
Booster 34 escorts: 1
Booster 34 escorts: 2
Booster 35 Cops: 2
Booster 36 Heavy: 2

supposed to mean?

yeah, true. I've been seeing a lot of eagle class ships on the table that aren't really worried about paying for a full turn of cloaking.

But that KR has a, what, 2.5 cloak cost? That does get expensive.

Because if there is no reason to wait, then you shouldn't. Nothing can happen outside of range 25 anyhow, so if you planned on cloaking before getting into range 25, go ahead and do it.

I only say this cuz two battles ago that was MY plan, then I either counted hexes wrong or got caught by an ...
