This means any roll where the system contributes-if a targeting system is hit, all attacks with linked weapons are made at -1, if a limb's musculature is infected, any wielded weapon's accuracy is reduced by 1, and so on.

			: 17+: Destruction: The component is destroyed. This completely destroys the system in question, regardless of its durability. However, cockpits and spin generators have their own independent safeties and firewalls and cannot be affected by such attacks.

 In general piloting is '''pilot attribute + machine attribute + 1d10''' (only for IRC RP). Agility is capped by a pilot's ''Body'' score. If a 1 is rolled, the player rolls an another 1d10 and subtracts it from their total. If a 10 is rolled, the player rolls another 1d10 and ''adds'' it to their total. This continues (if more 1s or 10s are rolled) until the rerolled dice come up not 1 or 10. A ''negative'' total is a critical failure.
