Notes:

• Stability is a ship's intrinsic ability to resist mendacious space weather, gravity rifts and other nonsense affecting their targeting and mobility; it counteracts the Instability effect 1 to 1. As a general rule, bigger ships are more stable.
• Multiplier by weapon is damage per-hit. This is done to help keep dice pools sane for larger ships.
• Blast X is a Deflector modifier, reducing the deflector save by X.
• Aggressor Shield X; Increases deflector save by X against targets in the 'front' arc. Requires 1 power to activate.
• Aerodynamic: While many ships have the ability to fly in and out of a planetary gravity well on countergravity, a combination of air resistance and local gravity tends to make this an up-and-down proposition. A ship that is aerodynamic can instead travel like a (very large) aircraft and perform maneuvers that would send any conventional ship careening into the landscape.
• Group Deflector; Add +1 to the deflector rating rating for every other ship in the lance thas has energized deflectors (maximum of 4 ships for a +3)
