Firefly: 2UW - Ship Distinctions & SFX

Distinctions

Kingfisher Class

A surprisingly agile vessel with more than one trick up her proverbial sleeve. The Kingfisher is a long range scout ship built entirely to independent specs using exclusively independent tech. Ain't nothing of the Alliance about her. This has the double edged effect of making it harder for the alliance to properly guess the function of all her systems, but sometimes making it harder to affect repairs, especially in the core worlds.

Unfamiliar Design Hide in plain sight. Spend 1 PP to reroll a pool containing Systems against any attempt to identify the ship or any of its individual design functions

Ghost Ship

You didn’t come by your vessel entirely legal like. Its last known port gutted by Reaver attack, your boat has been reported Destroyed/All Hands Lost by the previous owner, a tong boss and member of the Triads in some standing, who is still quietly keeping an eye out for his missing craft.

Interdiction Mods

Lots of ships get pressed into service in war - yours was specially outfitted for it. Your ship has been equipped with EMP weapons, specialized gravity drive maneuvering compensators, and tractor beams. These modifications allow your ship to be more maneuverable in capturing smaller, more agile ships. However, the armor plating on your ship had to be pared back.

☐ Gannosuke Clutch: Alliance don't classify this gear as weapons, but it's military grade from the height of the war, and it's no joke. The ship’s pilot may spend 1 PP to automatically Take Out a ship that is inflicted with a Complication associated with being grabbed by a tractor beam.

☐ Thin Skinned: Your ship's physical defenses are most kindly described as low density. The pilot may step back the ship’s Hull for the rest of the scene to step up Engines for one Action.
