Also, what (if anything) are the base stats for the weapons listed? Assuming everything starts at zero, for instance, you'd need a 17-size laser to get 10% accuracy for 1 damage (against armor OR shields, not both) and a 13-size gun to do the same (and only against armor).

They are zero. This is because of the fact that every component was supposed to be 10 times as big, before I switched all systems to the cargo counting system. (Originally a default cargo unit was 0.1 size, but now it is 1). Fighter weapons don't need as much accuracy and shield piercing, because often they will be firing at larger ships from inside their shields. (ie, at near point blank range)

What happens if we get multiple volunteers for captain?

Operate guns, operate fighters operate crewmembes, fight, board, be boarded, repair stuff, disobey the captains orders, mutiny,... ( STuf like that I think).

What happens if we get multiple volunteers for captain?

I have to choose/roll

Also, what does the bullet size thing mean? I wasn't really clear on what effect ammunition size would have, or if it was trying to say larger shells cost more or gave you free points...

EDIT: Okay wow, here's a question.

You say hull sections are between 150 and 250 in size. Does this mean components can be, at most, size 250? Can you put requisite components in adjacent sections, or do, for instance, exhaust ports need to be in the same section as the engines they're allowing access to?

This is mesured at deck 1.(which is free btw). Deck 2 needs to be at least 120% bigger then deck 1, but it can be more.  Exhaust ports need to be in the same section as the engines they allow acces to though.  The engines don't need to be at the end of the ship though. (But they do need to be on the outside). Also your first deck is free, next one 1000, third 1500...

Raelin is obviously a female of the Telerin Race, but what exactly are the Teleri?

Superficially, the Teleri are and appear very similar to humans, though they are generally taller and slimmer. Teleri have faster metabolic rates than humans, and their sensory skills are more advanced -especially in the realm of hearing, in order to adapt with their ever changing environment and climate on their homeworld, Edhelin. Day can easily shift to night and back within a few hours, due to the dual moons that orbit their planet, which itself revolves around two blue suns.

The Teleri are known to be very spiritual in their daily lives, valuing the thoughts, mind-sets of others and their perspective. Much of their culture is based on the passing of the Ages, with every Age significant to the events that occur in society. Wealth, Luxury and Self-gratification is second-priority to self-preservation and social survival.

Now, young Telerin at the age of about seventeen years of age, are required to undertake a Proving in order to mark their passing from a youngling into full adulthood. This Proving serves as an opportunity for the youngling to learn intrapersonal talents that couldn't be easily discovered whilst in a community, to discover themselves along the way, and to learn to appreciate life among others. This also serves as an opportunity for their military forces as it tests the individual in all aspects of their life, focusing on how an individual can perform if isolated and left to fend for themselves. Every individual Proving is a major event in a Telerin's life, their whole family gathers to see the youngling off, and they are given family heirlooms, memorable advice and personal gifts, passed from elder to youngling as a reminder of their eternal bond to their roots. The youngling cannot return until they have slain one of the many lethal creatures that roam the areas and secure a trophy that could stand the test of time -most preferably, the weapon that the creature uses to try to kill them, and return to a general location only disclosed between the youngling and the Prover, one of the government officials that oversee the whole process. The blood of the slain creature would then serve as a temporary tattoo along the face of the Telerin, made in their own personal style to signify the truth, as most corpses in that certain area are quickly scavenged and devoured by the beings that dwell there, bone and all.


"Rae" carries with her a Moonwolf fang, which hangs on a chain dangling by the necklace on her neck. It is believed that the Moonwolf was an elusive and predatory creature on the twin moons, able to achieve sentience and dominance among the other hostile creatures.

Spoiler: Bio (click to show/hide)

Sai'oda Fresa is a Batarian Female...

The Batarian race shares the traits of most bipedal Humanoids, they are distinctly alien, their four eyes and cranial ridges being their most distinctive traits. Their skin colors can vary greatly, from light brown to dark red, or purple. Their senses are comparable to most, but their vision is obviously highly advanced-they can see in many different spectrum of light and energy. Batarians tend to be quite 'aware' of their surroundings, and their mental capabilities are heightened sufficiently past the norm to compensate for the influx of information they receive on a daily basis. Batarians tend to 'blush' when emotionally charged, or pale when frightened or angry-this is very noticeable.

Everyone likes to think they knows Batarians-as criminal scum, slavers and terrorists. In truth, the Batarian Hegemony that their people live under is ruled under a dictatorial fist, one that does not allow it's people to travel or converse with other races freely. Consequently, the only free Batarians one meets are political or criminal refugees who fled their home space-many of them turn to crime merely to survive.

Sai'oda Fresa was born outside the Empire-from a prison cell, the daughter to a renowned terrorist, who had committed many atrocities against Humankind in general. She grew up on Earth, facing the predictable hardships-visiting her father in prison was her only real escape, even if she couldn't come to embrace his belief. In time, Sai'oda grew and turned to military life, hoping it would erase the stain of dishonor that had been cast upon her. It didn't. Though she was decorated many times for bravery and heroism in combat, she was time and time again faced with the same enmity that had always plagued her-and stoked her long boiling fury. Eventually, she took a forced resignation, after breaking an admirals jaw in a bar fight-and went to the stars, perhaps ironically, to 'join her people', on the fringes of society.

She found work, eventually-her name was synonymous with honor and strength among the outcast Batarian community, and she quickly gathered like minded spirits to her. They formed a mercenary band, and these days they tend to take whatever morally acceptable jobs go their way. A recent tough mission has somewhat depleted her forces, though-and she's looking for a few easy years as ships security to rebuild the team to it's former strength...

Sai'oda herself is a slimly built Batarian with light red skin and four jet black eyes-this, and her famous hair trigger temper, leading to her nickname among some, 'Firecracker', though she'll hit anyone who calls her that to her face.

.......DAMN YOU EBBOR.

Reserved for crewmember/captain.

[10ebbor10]

Also, I see no explanation on 'Skills' in the character sheet. If you do give the players free will to make them up, I don't see much balance from where that will follow. Just saying.

Hard cap on statistics? Will we get a +2 to points allocated if we deduct from the baseline 4? And the inventory for players?))

1. I'll add some basic explanations. Besides, if you do want to make up a free skill, I'll look if it is balanced. Player created skills will start out at 2 rather then 4 though. ( oh, I see we got some confusion there. With skills I was referring to all the stats piled up above...
2. There's no hard cap. I might come to regret that. However, even if you put all your skillpoints in one skill, you still have a certain epic failchance.
3. Yes
4. Working on that one. It is called player buyable thingies. If you want something to be in it. Please tell me.

[10ebbor10]

I added extra items, an extra stat, organised some stuff...

Also I think we already got 5 people who said they  are going to make a sheet( and one who did already).

I'm working at my workplace, reading through all the logic and running my RtD turn at the same time. Headache incoming.

I will need someone with the diplomacy skill. If my character makes to captain, he'll be a crazyfuck.

Sheet done, I think.

@Tiruin: My lucky day? O-o

Also, woo 7778th post.

[10ebbor10]

@ Dwarmin Your stats start at 4. WHile you don't need to list them if you don't change them. You have 12 points you can still spend. I also made a change to the item list, which means you get 10 shots worth of ammo for free.

Dropships and transports will probably fall under fighter size ships, unless we're talking about carriers capable of moving entire armies around.
