Blankbeard January 23, 2014 - 4:09pm | I've uploaded yet another document of my house rules. It has always bothered me that chemical rockets are treated as ion engines that run out of fuel every trip. So I've made them fast but carrying a limited amount of fuel. If you're not careful, you can find yourself out of fuel and drifting away from any hope of rescue. There's a set of fuel costs in ADF points for common tasks for system ships and some new equipment that's mostly useful for chemical powered ships as well as some subskills that again are mostly useful for characters on chemical ships. I think these changes make using a chemical rocket easier. Fighters in particular can be much cheaper as they don't need the expensive atomic drive making their role as attrition units easier to achieve. I'd like comments and suggestions on this ruleset from anyone who's interested. |
