Distinctions d8

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
Quadratic Stabilizers: Nobody expects a ship to perform like this. While attempting to evade another ship, the pilot may spend 1 PP to create a d10 Slipstream Asset. Each time you include Slipstream in a dice pool, step it back one after you roll.

Ghost in the Machine

Some ships have eyes. Yours has a brain. Your ship’s systems are augmented by an experimental artificial intelligence, and you can control many aspects of the ship like the helm, airlocks and doors by voice command. It listens. Most of the time.

Fly By Voice: You've always got a crew member onboard. Spend 1 PP to fly the ship without a pilot at the helm by voice or radio. Use Leader instead of Operator for rolls while piloting the ship via this method.
Intrusion Countermeasures: A ship with a brain is faster on the draw against electronic shenanigans than its crew. Spend 1 PP to step up or double Systems when your ship’s computers are being attacked by hackers, viruses, or Trojan horses.

Smuggler's Delight

Sometimes you need em to see what they see, not what is there. Half of your jobs are getting arms, armor, ammo, meds and manpower across battle lines undetected.
