ENGINEER
You work with your Starship's power core and engines to achieve maximum efficiency, grant extra power in times of need, and divert power to vital systems as necessary. You can also repair damaged systems. A Starship can have any number of Engineers. An engineer acts during the engineering phase.
ENGINEER ACTIONS
As an engineer, you can take any of the following actions, depending on your rank in the engineering skills. These actions can be taken only during the engineering phase. Unless otherwise noted, each action can be performed only once per round, no matter how many Engineers are on a Starship.
DIVERT (Engineering Phase): You can divert auxiliary power into one of your Starship's systems giving into boost. This requires a successful Engineering check (DC = 10 + 2 x your Starship's tier), and the results depend on where you decide to send this extra power. If you send it to the engines, your Starship's speed increases by 2 this round. If you send it to the science equipment, all science officers receive a +2 bonus to their crew actions this round. If you send it to a Starship's weapons, treat each damage die that rolls a 1 as having rolled a 2 instead. If you send it to the shields, restore an amount of Shield Points equal to 5% of the PCU rating of the Starship's power core, up to the Shield's maximum value. Evenly distribute the restored Shield Points to all four quadrants (putting any excess Shield Points in the forward quadrant).
