SFB Master Rulebook. (D7.15) "Other rules such as (D15.8) provide other units for use in boarding party combat such as commando teams, heavy weapon squads, civilians, and militia squads." The text should be "heavy weapons squad" (IE., made plural), as this is how it is referenced everywhere else in the rulebook (there are no other instances of references to HWS with the singular 'weapon'). 28 December 2010, Xander Fulton.

SFB Master Rulebook. (S3.3) NOT ERRATA: suggested re-wording. "In the Captain’s Edition, player
modifications have been deleted. (The original purpose, to allow the creation of special purpose variants, has long been satisfied by the publication of SSDs for those variants.) Consequently, this section has been deleted." Phrase 'been deleted' used twice in two adjoining sentences. Suggest one of them be replaced with a synonym. '...been removed' or '...been deprecated', etc. 28 December 2010, Xander Fulton.

SFB Master Rulebook. (S3.211). NOT ERRATA: suggested re-wording. "If you buy a refit (S3.24) with Commander’s Options, this does not increase the EAC-BPV". The abbreviation "EAC-BPV" is used nowhere else in the Master Rulebook, scenarios, or annexes. Suggest, instead, this last note be moved to (S3.24), and spell out "Effective Adjusted Combat BPV". (Or, alternatively, the abbreviation "EAC-BPV" noted after the first use of the phrase "Effective Adjusted Combat BPV". Perhaps better would be to define the "Effective Adjusted Combat BPV" in section S2.1) 28 December 2010, Xander Fulton.

SFB Master Rulebook. (D15.44) References "(other than an A-7)" and "(other than the A-7)" should be deleted - this fighter does not seem to exist in Captain's Edition SFB. 2 January 2011, Xander Fulton.

SFB Master Rulebook. (G33) NOT ERRATA: suggestion. In the last part of this section, an incomplete Annex #8H is included. The Annex #8H in Module G3 is significantly larger, and this is the *only* Annex currently in the Master Rulebook (the similar Annex #8B, for example, is not included). Recommend deleting this (or, at least, updating it to the Module G3 list - but preference is definitely to delete, it's the only Annex in the MRB...seems out of place). 2 January 2011, Xander Fulton.

Xander- The Federation A-7 Ground Support Fighter was in Module P4 Marines, page 20. I think it was a play test concept that got dropped from the game.

SFB Master Rulebook. (G12.65) "NIMBLE SHIPS lose their nimble benefits if they drop their warp engines (C11.31)." Should have another sentence added: "Exception: sublight ships (C2.14), or ships which never had warp engines, may retain their nimble benefits with no warp engines." 4 January 2011, Xander Fulton.

I don't agree with the above - says if they DROP their warp engines. It's obvious to me that a ship that was built without warp engines did not drop them and did not lose nimble status.

Obvious to you, sure, (and, well, me) but it came up in an argument (I was flying a Snipe-S and my opponent was bitching and moaning about me doing EM with a weasel out).

In any case, there is precedent:
(G31.242), in the section describing PA panel absorption in an elevator, notes that it does not apply to units "which never had PA panels".

(D3.34), describing shield reinforcement, notes that it does not apply to units "which never had shields". Again, it may seem obvious that a unit that never had shields cannot reinforce them...but it's still spelled out.

Indeed, the closest direct comparison is in "(YE24.319)", which notes:

Quote:

If a ship has no warp engines, either because it never had them or because they have been destroyed or dropped, it is unaffected by heel nipper damage, and will not be forced to turn.

SFB Master Rulebook. (S2.41) "A: 10% or less of its original warp engines undestroyed." Should read "A: 10% or less of its original warp engine boxes undestroyed." That is, to specify the difference between the logical grouping of SSD boxes that constitutes a 'warp engine', as indicated by (D7.8372) and (G17.313), and the total number of warp boxes available within said engines, across the ship. 4 January 2011, Xander Fulton.

Hi all..Nothing too major and not sure I even need to mention it but I thought why not since you can change it on the E23 MRB I imagine. Tiny, tiny typo...(in the printed version that is)...The "Example, Part 1" (G8.21) at the top left of page 212 lists a D7 and a D6. However, the illustration shows two D7's. The hex numbers are listed in the example so one should recognize the typo and not be confused but figured since you have the power to change it in the electronic version (I think), why not say something. Anyways, I'm sure the SFU will carry on even with it there . Just thought why should Xander have all the fun lol! Have a good one!
