I00thlurker Retcon Proposal

• Spot Fire: The Spot Fire trait on a weapon allows a ship to use targeting data from a friendly ship, out to the Spotter's EW Range. Use the distance between the Spotter and the Target for the purposes of determining the effective range for gunnery, such as penalty to damage from EW.

Weapons:

• Ray Beams: Massive beam emplacements or spinal arrays far too powerful to use vectoring and thus relying on mechanical aiming. Base TN 5, plus the target's Initiative value, +1 at over half range(may not be able to hit some ships at all). [+Spot Fire]. [Double damage to shields]. Range 4-22.
• HI Vector Beam: Main battery of Ships of the Wall, too powerful for snap vectoring. Can spot fire. Base TN 5, plus the target's Initiative value up to 9, +1 at over half range. [+Spot Fire]. [Double damage to shields]. Range 2-18.
• QF Vector Beam: Ubiquitous, basic anti-ship bendy beams, particularly suited for tagging fast targets. Base TN 6. Range 7.
• Anti-Matter Gun: Fires bolts of suspended but volatile Anti-Matter, destroys both armor and hp on the same damage roll on unshielded hulls. Range 2-7

Stances:
Ships have different stances depending on their hull type and role. Some have specific stances entirely unique to their class.

• Retreat: All emergency power to engines. x2 Speed to nearest Starway or safe zone. Ship in Retreat cannot be taken out of Retreat stance except with a command check.
• EW Screen: Cannot fire weapons. Ships using EW Screen will grant their EW score to all ships, friendly or enemy, in their line of movement.

Into these Elements go Tokens which represent tactical groups of ships. Four different

Fleets are made up of Tokens, usually representing tactical groups of 2-6 ships. Tokens come in three different categories Light, Ship of the Wall, and Capital. In addition each token has several specific characteristics: Speed, Firepower, Shock, Resilience, as well as special traits.

e.g. Phoenician First Line Capitals: 1 Speed, 5 Firepower, 3 Shock, 2 Resilience

Not all fleets are made equal. Most powers have several different kinds of Fleets. Fleet types have different basic statistics that represent their authorized materiel as dictated by naval legislation and their general expected level of support, readiness, morale, and training.
