Default Re: Star Wars Mod - II (Sci-Fi Xover Mod)

Fyron:
What exactly are you trying to do with the supplies here?

Way back when, me and Magnum came up with a nifty Trek propulsion emulator for SE4.

Impulse drives give combat movement.
Nacelles give 1 standard movement.
The M/ARC (aka warpcore) provides 4-7 "bonus" movement.
Escorts & frigates require 1 Engine per move
Most ships upto say Battleship size require 2 engines per move.
Battleships take 3, dreadnaughts take 4.

- Any ship with too few functional nacelles is dead in the strategic water, no matter how good their reactor is. (bonus movement is useless without at least 1 standard movement)
- Putting four nacelles on an LC is fine: you get 1MP more, and backups incase of combat damage.
- Include an "internalized" nacelle design for ships like the defiant, where the nacelle is more expensive, but much more resistant to damage (or is perhaps not counted as "armor")
