Ship based actions require the player use the ship's Attributes rather than their personal Attributes. Ship Attributes are Hull, Engines, and Systems. These are based on the ship's Class Distinction:
Ships do not have Roles. When rolling ship based actions, players should roll an appropriate character Role for that action.

When rolling for ship based actions, the GM may call for players to use the ship's Attributes rather than one of their own if the ship's Attribute would take precedence over a character Attribute. In similar fashion, a player can voluntarily opt to use a ship Attribute rather than one of their own for ship based actions without GM prompting.
In addition to their Class Distinction, Ships gain s Background and Quirk Distinction, just like the characters. Players rolling ship based actions can choose to use one of their own Distinctions or one of the ship's Distinctions. All three (3) ship Distinctions come with the'''Hinder''' SFX.
