Major full-bore project. I don't think the Y-rules were in SILVER. Were they? If not, significant update here.

The weapon and system rules from the first two Early Years modules have been incorporated into the "silver" Master Rulebook.

That said, it might be worth including a note in a revision to Module Y1 advising readers to refer to Module Y2 and Module Y3, in terms of where the data required for the early Inter-Stellar Concordium can be found.

And, perhaps, it might also be worth adding a note advising readers about the existence of both Module C6 and of Module R4J, should they wish to make use of Early Years Gorn, Paravian, ISC, and "Shadow of the Eagle" Romulan ships over on "Mapsheet P"...

Y1 was included in the Master Rulebook. So the basis should all be there. However, there are definitely plenty of opportunities to clean up some of the SSDs and potentially add a few ships that were retroactively added. These include intermediate refitted Gorn and Fed National Fleets ships. (This isn't adding "new" material, but rather having specific SSDs for implied ships.)

For clarity, Y3 has no new rules, it is essentially an R-module. So SILVER has the full (Y0.0).

And for clarity on the ships, there are ships that had mistakes, or missed important updates that were later clarified.

The perfect example is the Vulcan national fleet destroyer. It should have four box engines, not six box engines. It was retroactively given an update that then applied to most, if not all, of the national fleet ships. So, the SSDs all need to be reexamined to determine who gets new refits and such. Whether the refits are presented on the base SSD or given a separate SSD, these are not "new ships", but error corrections.

This also applies to the Orion W-ships and the Gorn W-ships.

Posting a list of such ships would be useful. Noting the need for such corrections with the list of what they are isn’t particularly helpful. It’s sort of like saying “make the appropriate corrections, ALL of them.”

Oh, I will. I just wanted to mention that there are a few, and that they *technically* aren't "new ships".
