Hmm, that is a great resource, though it isn't 100% accurate on all details in the current version, so it might still be worth testing any groovy ideas to make sure they really don't work in the current version.

(examples: Combat Modifier - System doesn't give an ECM bonus - only an offensive bonus. Combat To Hit Defense Minus
subtracts rather than adds.)

PvK
Please report all such errors and they shall be fixed! Writing that was a daunting task, so I am sure there are some here and there.

Depends on which way you look at it. I currently have:

This ability adds Value1 % to the chance of enemy direct-fire weapons hitting this vessel. The modifier adds, so 50% + 30% = 80%

It increases the chance that you will hit the target ship. From the other side, it decreases the ECM value of the ship it is on. Either way is correct. I was trying to remain consistent and cast things from the firing ship's point of view.

By the way, I have updated the Standard HTML version of the document.
