| − | ==BASIC OVERVIEW OF SETTING== | + | ==OVERVIEW OF SETTING== |
| − | The history of the Known Worlds is inseparable from the history of the mother world that spawned its most prodigious race. Earth is the ancestral birthplace of all pure-blooded humans; their DNA evolved in its oceans and spread to the
| |
| − | stars by their own ingenuity.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Other humanoids—bipedal sentients with vaguely similar physiology from other far-flung planets—do not share that distinctive legacy. Humanoid is an all-encompassing term in the Known Worlds that includes humans and many other independently evolved bipedal beings of similar size and basic physiology. All humans are humanoids, but not all humanoids are humans.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Earth’s pre-spaceflight history is a colorful pastiche of violent multiculturalism, now largely forgotten, its nations, religions, and economies
| |
| − | long vanished in the wake of unfolding science and interstellar expansion. Still, what Earth is today is built upon the bones of its formative 20th through 22nd Centuries, when the massive destructive power of emerging
| |
| − | technologies put humans and their fragile world to the test many times over. In those days, despots rose and fell, populations roiled and clashed,
| |
| − | philosophies wrestled with science and lingering mysticism. It was a bloody epoch that ultimately wiped the Earthly slate clean for more promising
| |
| − | times to come.
| |
| − | | |
| − | During those dark, violent centuries, uniquely human optimism clung precariously to the edge of the precipice. Foundations gathered resources
| |
| − | and minds and hid themselves away where they might survive and plan for a better future. Some governments did the same, the most forward thinking devoting a portion of their economies to science that might give them an edge against their enemies.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Idealists pressed on against the prevailing wisdom that humanity was doomed to its own foibles, convinced that their race’s future was in fact quite bright, and ultimately it would blossom beneath the warm light of distant suns.

Then the victim must make a Vigor roll or fall prone and Incapacitated. At the start of each subsequent action, he makes a Vigor roll to revive. Success means he revives but is Shaken for the round and can recover on the next as usual A raise means he revives instantly and is not Shaken. An unpowered stun weapon does normal damage. TL3, Cost +350.</br>

Plasma weapons ignore armor points from any totally non-sealed suits or vehicles and deal damage in SBT around the target area. Plasma weapons tend to overheat; whenever an attacker rolls a 1 on their Shooting die (regardless of Wild die), he suffer ½ the basic damage. It takes one round of not firing to cool down to be safe to fire again, otherwise suffer full damage if fired before then. Plasma guns count as Heavy Weapons. Wielders should wear a minimum of Battle Dress armor to operate safely.

| − | ==STARSHIPS AND VEHICLES==
| |
| − | As the Science Fiction Companion is the Deluxe Edition I am using lots of updates and mods to bring up to date the basic building blocks of both Starships and Vehicles (and maybe Walkers) to bring them in line with Adventure Edition, See below of Frame and Chassis.</br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | NOTES ON STARSHIP RULES/OPERATIONS</br>
| |
| − | '''Space Scale Speeds''': For Tabletop scale the Space Speed is multipled by 100 to gain the vessel's mph. For vehicles that somehow makes it to space or for weapons used in space divide mph and range increments by 100 for Space scale. , divide Speed by 100 to get its space scale. The Space Scale speed of a vessel is also about how may AU it can travel in a 24 hour period.</br>
| |
| − | '''Faster-Then-Light Travel.''' At the present time there are three basic forms of FTL drives in the setting are fairly common and used by all Stellar Civilizations. They are '''''Warp-Folding Drives''''', '''''Hyperspace-Drill Drives''''' and '''''Wormhole Gate Portals'''.</br>
| |
| − | Each drive has its own advantages and disadvantages. Both the Warp-Folding Drive and Hyperspace-Drill Drives require specialized engines and navigational systems to chart real spaces at FTL speeds. Wormhole Gate Portals do not as these gateways only lead from the 'stationary' entry point to one exit points. The Gate Portals themselves include all the navigation information incorporated in their system. Those wishing to travel through the Gate Portal must a base fee and then awaits the system to open the gateway for them to pass through.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Plotting Navigational Coruse''': As there are at present three different FTL
| |
| − | | |
| − | Spike-Drill Drive Course Plotting requires a ''Science'' skill check with a penalty of -1 per light years to destination and takes a base of one hours time. Plotting a course in 20 minutes imposes a -2 penalty. Taking three hours adds +2 to the check. Advanced computers can grant a bonus. A ship’s AI can plot or provide a Support roll. Most civilian ships plot a maximum course of 3 light years taking 3 hours to be on the safe side. Failure results in the drill drive not engaging and requiring a new course to be plotting. Critical Failure damages the drive and requires 1d6 days of ''Repair'' and parts worth 1d6 x $5,000 x vessel Size in credits.</br>
| |
| − | These navigations are along established space is well mapped but plotting course to new uncharted worlds or restricted worlds (like a Shadow World) with these mapping information available is more danger. Depending on the data available and/or a navigator's access to restricted data the GM can imposs and addition penalty to the ''Science'' check from -1 to 5. </br>
| |
| − | '''Drive Space Stellar Pollutent Build Up''': A Spike Drive in hyperspace can travel saftely for the first 48 hours. After that first 48 hours in Drive Space if the vessel wishes to remain longer requires both a ''Repair'' and ''Science'' skill check to bleed off this energy so as not to suffer a Starship Critical Hit (SPC p. 44) to a sysem of the ship. If the tests are made the ship is safe for the additional 24 hours. Each additional 24 hours that is spent in Drive Space requires a new set of skill checks as above BUT with a cumlative -1 penalty to them. </br>
| |
| − | Once out of hyberspace a vessel need to bleed off this pollutent built up by spending a number of hours with a star system (not deep space). This require 6 hours per day that was spent in hyperspace. An engineer can attempt to burn this off faster with a ''Repair'' skill check to bring this down to 2 hours per day spent in hyperspace. However a critical failure damages the drive requiring 1d6 days of ''Repair'' and parts worth 1d6 x $5,000 x vessel Size in credits.</br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Starships''' in this setting use Spike-Drill Drive. This allows a ship to "drill" a way through hyperspace and increadale speed. A Spike-Drill Drive Mark 1 can move a vessel as 1 lightyear per 48 hours. A Drive Mark II can move a vessel at 1 lightyear per 36 hours. A Drive Mark III can move a vessel at 1 lightyear per 24 hours. Finally a Drive Mark IV can move a vessel at 1 lightyear per 12 hours.</br>
| |
| − | Most vessels of the UFS are value 2 or 3. Drive 4 are fairly rare and very expensive.</br>
| |
| − | No matter the speed however, the longer one spends in Drive Space the greater the danger of dangerous stellar pollutant like energy is built up within the Drive Engines. This happens within a few days within hyperspace and as it gets progressively more dangers most civilians ships don't spend more the 72 hours within drive hyperspace. Military ships and emergency recusue do but have reduced specialize crew to give them the best chance of survival. Luckily most stars within the '''''Stellar Cluster''''' are within one or two lightyears of another and the Srellar Cluster itself is only about 300 lightyears across and 500 lightyears long. The region of '''''Frontier Space''''' is about half of that. </br>
| |
| − | Within the Stellar Cluster UFS controlled space has been fairly well navigated and mapped but there is a lot of unnavigated space surrending those control by the various species and colonized space, and Shadow Worlds that might never been visited (at least not by any offical UFS ships). Traveling on uncharted courses is risky especially the longer one spends in hyperspace.</br>

| |
| − | WEAPON NOTES</br>
| |
| − | Weapons Ranges are listed for Player's Scale. For Starship Scale Weapons divide each Range Increment by 100. This is the space space (so a Range of 100 on the Starship scale has a range of 1).
| |
| − | :'''Fire''': Ignores half non-sealed armor points (round down), targets in area must make a Agility check or catch fire, suffer 2d8 damage each round. Takes an Action and Agility -2 check to put fire out. Rolling on the ground adds +2 and immerses into water automatically succeeds.
| |
| − | :'''Reaction Fire''': Anti-missile and torpode weapons. The basic AI of a system grants it a d10 ''Shooting'' skill (it is also an Exra). These attacks have one chance to destory missiles and torpedoes before they hit the ship or the shields. If successful the missile or torpedo is destroyed before striking the vehicle. If still within AOE it deals half damage (and if the vessel has active Shields it halves the damage again)
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''AUTO-CANNONS''' (In Atmpsphere Only; except for reaction point-defense weapons)</br>
| |
| − | Auto-cannons (also called chain guns) are powered weapons that fire bursts of chemically propelled metal slugs at the target. They are primarily used by light military vehicles and aircraft to destroy ground targets or as point-defense weapons for starships. Ammo costs are for a full load drum of shots. All Auto-Cannons are considered Heavy Weapons.</br>

| − | '''MISSILES & TORPEDOES'''</br>
| |
| − | For direct fire against a target, Attackers make a ''Electronics'' or ''Shooting'' opossed by the target's ''Electronics'' or ''Hacking skill''. Success by the attacker means that the ship has a weapons-locked the target. On the following round as an Action a successful ''Shooting'' check strike the target. Without weapons-lock the attack roll is at an additional -4 in addition to any other penalties. Targets can try to break weapons-lock each round after but as an opposed roll where they suffer a -2 penalty to their ''Electronics'' or ''Hacking'' check (until the weapon's lock is broken when the checks suffer no penalties).</br>
| |
| − | For proximity or AOE fire at a target, the Attackers make a ''Shooting'' check opposed by the target's ''Electronics'' or ''Piloting'' check. A win by the attacker means the weapon detenated nearby and the target veessel suffers Half damage. The target could attempt a seperate ''Piloting'' check at -4 to 'dive out of the way' and suffer no damage.</br>
| |
| − | All missiles and torpodes are Heavy Weapons.</br>
| |
| − | '''''EMP Warhead''''': Any of the missiles or torpedoes can be fitted with electromagnetic pulse warheads at no additional cost. These don’t cause actual damage, but still roll “damage” normally and compare to the vessel’s Toughness, ignoring Armor. A success knocks out the ship’s systems so that all electronics are down (deflector screens, shields, weapons, maneuvering, etc.). Starship continue moving in a straight line at its last speed, ground vehicles might crash or roll to a stop, watercraft drift to a stop, aircraft start falling out of the sky. It cannot take actions until the crew mist take an Action and makes a ''Repair'' roll at –2. With a raise on the attack roll was made the penalty is -4. If the ''Repair'' check is successful, the vessel’s electronics reboot and it may function normally on the following round. On a raise, the vessel can function immediately. </br>
| |
| − | EMP warheads are stopped by Shields, so an attacker must first eliminate those to effect the ship’s hull and fry its systems.</br>
