DESIGNER STATEMENT: Conversions of Federtion DN to BB is DISAPPROVED and all such data removed and void.

Federation BASES BATS: On-line SIT dated 22 Aug 2008 shows stats of " 12(9H)* / 6P(4H^3)* " I beleive the "6P" should be just "6" as Feds do not have PFs. Garth L. Getgen 24 DEC 2011 THIS CHANGE WAS MADE 30 MARCH 2015

ALL CHANGES TO ESCORT COSTS WERE DISAPPROVED. THE DATA IS CORRECT AS PUBLISHED.

DESIGNER STATEMENT
Federation Battleship: CHANGE Title to plural "BATTLESHIPS" STRONG – 8 Jan 2012 SVC: ok
Federation Battleship: BB: States "never built" instead of just "conjectural" like other battleships - Eric S. Smith 1 Jan 2009 STRONG: Change note to read: "Base Hull Type (BB) Battleship; Single Ship Carrier with F15s; Conjectural." STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: ok.
Federation Battleship: BB: SALV = 10.8 = 36 build cost x 30% Fed boom-ship salvage factor. STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: ok.
Federation Battleship: BBV: COMPOT: 20(15)/10(6); has same fighter compliment as CVA. DATE: Y177 (318.31). CONV: From BB: 4+22. BUILD: Special Rules: 38+30. SALV = 10.8. Change note to read: "Conjectural Battleship Carrier. Fighters are F14s (8) & A10s (7); see (302.352)." STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: sure.
Federation Battleship: SDA: COMPOT: 20(14)P/10(6)P; has same F14 compliment as CVA. DATE: Y180 (318.31). CONV: From BB: 5+20+PFs; From BBV: 5+PFs; From BB-: 5+28+PFs. BUILD: Special Rules: 41+28. SALV = 10.8. Change note to read: "Conjectural Stellar Domination Ship with PFs. Fighters are F14s (8) & F18s (6); see (302.352)." STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: uh, yeah, right, you nailed it!
Federation Battleship: SDS: COMPOT: 20(10V14)/10(5V6); has same F14 compliment as CVA. DATE: Y180 (318.31). CONV: From BB: 3+40; From BBV: 2+20; From BB-: 5+48. BUILD: Special Rules: 41+28. SALV = 10.8. Change note to read: "Conjectural Stellar Domination Ship. Fighters are A20 (10V), F14s (8) & F18s (6); see (302.352)." STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: ok, sure.
Federation Battleship: BB-: Add to SIT. COMPOT: 20/10. DATE: Y175 (318.31). CONV: From BBV: 2. BUILD: Special Rules: 36. SALV = 10.8. Change note to read: "Conjectural Battleship without fighters." Other data same as BB. STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: sure.
Federation Battleship: BB-: CONV: From DN: 26; From DN+: 24; From DNG: 22; From DNH: 20. Rationale: Federation BB uses dreadnought saucer and engines. STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: Uh…. Not sure about that one.
Federation Battleship: BB: CONV: From DN: 27+8; From DN+: 25+8; From DNG: 23+8; From DNH: 20+8. Rationale: Federation BB uses dreadnought saucer and engines. STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: Uh…. Not sure about that one.
Federation Battleship: BBV: CONV: From DN‡: 29+30; From DN+‡: 27+30; From DNG‡: 25+30; From DNH: 23‡+30; From CVA: 26 (has same fighter compliment as CVA). Rationale: Federation BB uses dreadnought/CVA saucer and engines. STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: Uh…. Not sure about that one. I think you’re abusing the priviledge.
Federation Battleship: SDA: CONV: From DN‡: 30+28+PFs; From DN+‡: 28+28+PFs; From DNG‡: 26+28+PFs; From DNH‡: 24+28+PFs; From CVA/SCS: 27+PFs. Rationale: Federation BB uses dreadnought saucer and engines. STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: see above.
Federation Battleship: SDS: CONV: From DN‡: 30+48; From DN+‡: 28+48; From DNG‡: 26+48; From DNH‡: 24+48; From CVA/SCS: 27. Rationale: Federation BB uses dreadnought saucer and engines. STRONG – 2 Jan 2012 SVC: The more I think about this DN to BB conversion, the more I think it’s a really bad-for-the-game idea and I may cancel all of it later. The theory that the DN saucer is identical is just not valid. The BB saucer has two engines and needs to be reinforced to carry the strain. I’ll think about it later.
Federation Dreadnoughts: CVA: DN>DNG>CVA=4+[4+30]-1=7+30 [currently SIT cost is 6+30]. Two-step conversions should get a 1 EP discount (437.2). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs CONV From DN‡: 7+30. SVC: Increase by one to 7 ok.
Federation Dreadnoughts: SCS: DN+>DNG>SCS=2+[5+48]-1=6+48 [currently SIT cost is 7+48]. Two-step conversions should get a 1 EP discount (437.2). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs CONV From DN+‡: 6+48. SVC: ok.
Federation Dreadnoughts: SCS: DN>DNG>SCS=4+[5+48]-1=8+48 [currently SIT cost is 9+48]. Two-step conversions should get a 1 EP discount (437.2). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs CONV From DN‡: 8+48. SVC: ok, but I am not sure how you got the original number.
Federation Heavy Cruisers: COV: Notes: suggest adding "limit of 1 in service". The OOB states that COVs may only be built as a replacement if the original COV is lost. Thomas Mathews 24 July 2011 OPEL: NON CONCUR. The rule is predates the Survey cruiser rules which places no limits on G ship conversions of Survey ships. I think its self limiting. The ship is more valuable as a Survey or CVL then COV. Ryan J Opel 24 Jul 2011 STRONG: NON-CONCURS with Mathews and agrees with Opel. SVC: no change made.
Federation Heavy Cruisers: GVX Factors 10-12(9H) Sc Symbol/5-6(4H) Sc Symbol should read 10-12(9H)*/5-6(4.5H) * (use ftr triangle). Thomas Mathews 28 Feb 10 SVC: I think you just want the half fighter factor, and ok, you can have it. Might have been easier for me to read if it had been:
Federation Heavy Cruisers: GVX, crippled side needs half-fighter factor (9 goes to 4.5). Thomas Mathews 28 Feb SVC: done, good report format!
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NCC: Conversion cost from NCL should have "(minor)" added since both sub-steps of the two-step conversion each cost 3 EPs or less (437.21). NCL>NCA>NCC=3+2-1=4 (minor). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs SVC: minor, ok.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NCV: Add to conversions "From NCL‡: 4+12 (minor)". NCL>NCA>NCV=3+[2+12]-1=4+12 (minor). This two-step conversion is listed in (437.1) but is not on the SIT. Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs – Add to SIT. SVC: ok.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NCV: Conversion cost from NVL should have "(minor)" added since both sub-steps of the two-step conversion each cost 3 EPs or less (437.21). This is basically the same as a NCL>NCA>NCV=3+[2+12]-1=[4+12 (minor)] conversion but without the fighter cost so it should also be a minor conversion. Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs – ADD CONV: From NCL‡: 4+12 Minor. SVC: done.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NDC: NCL>NCA>NDC=3+2-1=4 (minor) [currently SIT cost is 5]. Two-step conversions should get a 1 EP discount (437.2). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: ok.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NSR: Conversion cost from NSC should have "(minor)" added since both sub-steps of the two-step conversion each cost 3 EPs or less (437.21). This is basically the same as a NCL>NCA>NSR=3+5=7 conversion but with a 2 EP deduction on the NCA>NSR for starting as a NSC which makes it minor conversion costing 5. Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Non-Concurs; NO CHANGE REQUIRED. SVC: no change made.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NSR: NCL>NCA>NSR=3+5-1=7 [currently SIT cost is 8]. Two-step conversions should get a 1 EP discount (437.2). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: ok.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NAE: Add to conversions "From NCL‡: 3". NCL>NCA>NAE=3+1-1=3. This two-step conversion is listed in (437.1) but is not on the SIT. Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs – ADD conversion as noted. SVC: ok.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NDS: Add to conversions "From NCL‡: 7+12+18". NCL>NCA>NDS=3+[5+12+18]-1=7+12+18. This two-step conversion is listed in (437.1) but is not on the SIT. Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs – ADD conversion as noted. SVC: ok.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NHV: Conversion cost from NCL should have "(minor)" added since both sub-steps of the two-step conversion each cost 3 EPs or less (437.21). NCL>NCA>NHV=3+[2+18]-1=4+18 (minor). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: done.
Federation New Heavy Cruisers: NSRV: NCL>NCA>NSRV=3+[5+2]-1=7+2 [currently SIT cost is 8+2]. Two-step conversions should get a 1 EP discount (437.2). Jeff Coutu 19 January 09 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: done.
Federation New Light Cruisers: NCD: Drone Factors shown with incorrect brackets (Used brackets for replacement fighters by mistake). Suggestion: Change to correct brackets. L. Bergen 01 Nov 2011 STRONG: Concurs; proper nomenclature is: 8/4. SVC: already has these brackets but the factor is 7 not 8.
Federation Light Cruisers: LHV; A21; 4-6(9H)*/2-3(4.5H); CL32; CR6; Y177; CL(3); From CL 5+18; For NCL 11+18; SALV 1.500; Notes: F111 Carrier, Scout, EW=2 Conjectural. All data copied from the CL32 SIT except the crippled fighter factors as 4.5H here instead of 4H. This is for inclusion of the triangle factor in the base 2010 rules. Thomas Mathews 20 Dec 2010 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: I did not think we were going to do new units?
Federation Frigates: FFT: The FFT is listed twice, once as FFT EcoWar and once as FFT SO Recommend removing FFT EcoWar entry. Thomas Mathews 19 Nov 2009 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: done.
Federation Police Ships: PV: No Call Up cost like the police ships. - Eric S. Smith 1 Jan 2009 STRONG: ADD under builds "Call-up: 3" per (531.4). SVC: done.
Federation Police Ships: POV: ADD under builds "Call-up: 3" per (531.4). SVC: done.
Federation Monitors & Pallets: MPAL(V): All the other races list this pallet as "MPAL (CV)" - Eric S. Smith 1 Jan 2009 STRONG: "MPAL (CV)" is more correct. SVC: Line item rejected for use of term "race" by order of Jean Sexton.
Federation Monitors & Pallets: MPAL (F111) Factors 0(9H) Current factors read 9H0 which is not consistent with other Monitor Pallets and Tug Pods of similar function. Thomas Mathews 13 May 2010. STRONG: CORRECT factors to read: 0(9H)/None SVC: done.
Federation Monitors & Pallets: MPAL (F111) Cost 5+9 Thomas Mathews 13 May 2010. Fighter Cost for Monitor pallet is not consistent with the MPAL (V) and MPAL (SCS) for the Federation. Fighters are paid at the base rate, see (519.421). STRONG: Concurs; Build cost should be 5+9. SVC: ok, but does not sound right.
Federation Monitors & Pallets: MPAL(SCS): Salvage is 1.25, all other pallets its just 1.00 - Eric S. Smith 1 Jan 2009 STRONG: Non-Concurs; pallet salvage is 25% of pallet’s base cost. SVC: no change made.
Federation Mobile Support Units: LTF: No ship breakdown for group - Eric S. Smith 1 Jan 2009 STRONG: No group breakdown required; cited rule is sufficient. SVC: no change made.
Federation Bases: Federation Ftr-Depot; rule number change for Fighter Depot from (443.0) to (445.0). Thomas Mathews 29 March 09 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: change made both places.
Federation Bases: HFM (Hvy-Ftr Module): ADD to SIT: Ref 1.70; factors 0(9)/0(4.5); product AO; CR0; available Y178; Size NA; From None; For 1+18; salvage 0.000; Notes: F-111 Fighter Module; See (527.0) Thomas Mathews 29 Dec 09 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: ok.
Federation Planetary Units: Colony Cost stated (446.13) "2+2+2" should read (446.13) "1+1+1"; cost changed in Captain's Log 37. Thomas Mathews 26 Aug 2009 STRONG: Concurs. SVC: done.

Frazier Report 2012: Federation Bases: HFM (Hvy-Ftr Module): ADD to SIT: Ref 1.70; factors 0(9)/0(4.5);
Wouldn't the factors actually be 0(9H)/0(4.5H) for heavy fighters
DONE 30 MARCH 2015

These four items were approved and the changes made 30 March 2015

Federation CVA: Crippled factors are given as "5-6(6)". This should be updated to "5-6(7t)" [triangle factor] to match F&E2010 SIT and counters. -James Lowry 24 Jan 2012

Federation CVL: Crippled factors are given as "3-4(1)". This should be updated to "3-4(1t)" [triangle factor] to match F&E2010 SIT and counters. -James Lowry 24 Jan 2012

Federation FV: Crippled factors are given as "1-3(1)". This should be updated to "1-3(1t)" [triangle factor] to match F&E2010 SIT and counters. -James Lowry 24 Jan 2012

Federation BBV: Crippled factors are given as "10(6)". This should be changed to "10(7t)" [triangle factor] to match current CVA fighter factors. -James Lowry 24 Jan 2012

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, March 30, 2015 - 06:22 pm: Edit

APPROVED and done 30 March 2015

Federation CVL: "Notes and Special Cases" cell should be updated to indicate that this ship is a survey ship. -Ted Fay 26 Jan 2012

APPROVED and done 30 March

Federation LHV: Add "H" to end of crippled fighter factors (it has it on the uncrippled side), Eric S. Smith, 10 JUL 2012

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, March 30, 2015 - 06:28 pm: Edit

APPROVED and done 30 March 2015
Federation NHV: See (527) should read See (527.0). (527.0) is the rules section covering F-111s. Thomas Mathews 8 Aug 2012

Note that justification statement is wrong; should be "We always put the point zero in such references." and should also note that SVC thing such changes are a waste of his tme and talent but Jean threatened me with a whanging if it refused to do it.

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, March 30, 2015 - 06:32 pm: Edit

APPROVED and done 30 March

Federation BCP: YIS: 177 should read Y177 This would match the YIS format for all other entries. Thomas Mathews 9 Aug 2012

Federation OCA: YIS: 125 should read Y125 This would match the YIS format for all other entries. Thomas Mathews 9 Aug 2012

Federation LSC: YIS: 130 should read Y130 This would match the YIS format for all other entries. Thomas Mathews 9 Aug 2012

Federation CLX: YIS: 181 should read Y181 This would match the YIS format for all other entries. Thomas Mathews 9 Aug 2012

THESE WERE DONE
LHV: Size class should be in parenthesis. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
DONE

FFB. Build cost or substitution is formatted slightly incorrectly. First line should be "DW: 4" not "DW 4:". Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
DONE

BATS. The crippled fighter string isn't formatted correctly. It should be "4^H3" not "4H^3". Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012. DONE

BTX. Crippled fighter factors needs 'H' added. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.DONE

BSX. Should say "see EW Chart." in notes like all other bases. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
ADDED

The OPB, BS, BATS, MB, SB, STB, BTX, BSX, SBX, STX, all have "PFM" in the module limits. However, the Feds don't use PFMs (they aren't on the SITs, but perhaps should be added as conjectural since the NPF/SDA are listed?) and perhaps those PFMs should be fighter modules, depots, or heavy fighter modules? Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012. REMOVED THEM ALL

The DNG, NCC, NCV, NDC, and NHV all have the down triangle symbol in their conversion lists, but at the end of the SIT this symbol is not listed for its meaning. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.ADDED

The (A) and (B) next to years for the NCD, NPF, F111/SCS Monitor Pallets, and mega fighters is not documented anywhere, so it is unclear what those letters mean. IT IS DOCUMENTED, THE PROBLEM IS THAT S AND F WONT' SORT.

Many carriers do not have their carrier group listed, or the class of carrier they happen to be for escort purposes. I can list these out if desired, and perhaps somewhere it says they are defaulted to medium if nothing mentioned or something, but they really should be on here somewhere for clarification and consistency I think. NOT NEEDED

BCP. Extra 0 in salvage value. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
EXCEL IS SET TO DISPLAY ALL SAVAGE AS 0.000 BUT SOMETIMES IT JUST DOESN'T FOR NO REASON I CAN FIND

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, March 30, 2015 - 07:05 pm: Edit

There is a note under the 4SCS that has the correct 10V14 fighters, but that same note isn't under the SCS, and probably should be for consistency. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
NOT NECESSARY OR IMPORTANT AS THE GROUP COUNTERS WENT AWAY.

CLX. Is "none actually built" the same as "unbuilt variant"? If so, the text should probably be updated to be consistent. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
A FOOLISH CONSISTENCY IS THE HOBGOBLIN OF SMALL MINES. LET'S HAVE A LITTLE FUN WITH IT!

LHV: Size class should be in parenthesis. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
DONE

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, March 30, 2015 - 07:06 pm: Edit

DEF. Says "Available, but historically none were built", isn't that the same as "Unbuilt Variant"? If so, the text should probably be updated to be consistent. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
IBID

FFB. Build cost or substitution is formatted slightly incorrectly. First line should be "DW: 4" not "DW 4:". Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.
DONE

HVH. 2 extra 0's in salvage column. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012. AND THEY ARE CORRECT.

BATS. The crippled fighter string isn't formatted correctly. It should be "4^H3" not "4H^3". Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012. DONE

BTX. Crippled fighter factors needs 'H' added. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.DONE

BSX. Should say "see EW Chart." in notes like all other bases. Eric S. Smith 18 AUG 2012.

NOT NEEDED

The 2 step conversion symbol is sometimes by the cost of the unit, other times the hull, shouldn't it just be in one place for consistency's sake? SOUNDS LIKE A LOT OF EFFORT BETTER SPENT ELSEWHERE FOR THE TIME BEING. A FOOLISH CONSISTENCY IS A WASTE OF TIME. THE MEANING IS CLEAR AND I'M BUSY.

Some units, like pods, SWACs, and fighters, don't have a size class listed. As these do have size classes in SFB, for consistency's sake wouldn't listing them on the table make more sense, even if it doesn't matter in F&E, than leaving them blank? Just a thought.
SOUNDS LIKE EXTRA WORK FOR NO BENEFIT. STAFF CAN CONSIDER AFTER REAL CORRECTIONS ARE COMPLETE.

Federation: BCP designation was changed to BC1 in the new Fed Master Star Ship Book as this designation was already being used by the conjectural BCS that carried PFs. (Nick Samaras, April 11, 2015)
DONE 27 MARCH 2017

GSX: This ship class, published for SFB in Module X1, was originally skipped over in Advanced Operations, perhaps due to it not appearing in Star Fleet service until Y186 (which no formally published scenario had reached by that time). In light of more recent modules like ISC War and the soon-to-be-published Minor Empires pushing F&E further along the Alpha Octant timeline, I would ask if the place-holder GSX entry in the current Fed SIT could be fleshed out to more formally account for this unit. (According to the SFB data published in SFB Module X1, many of the details for this class would be equivalent to those currently listed for the GVX, minus the added costs and combat factors the latter carries due to its squadron of F-111s.) - Gary Carney 14 April 2015
MAYBE SOMEDAY THE STAFF WILL DO THAT.

GVX: The current SFB reference number was based on the provisional listing provided to this class in Captain's Log #26. As of the publication of Module X1R, the current reference number would be 208. - Gary Carney 14 April 2015
ADDED A BLANK LINE FOR THIS

Dreadnaughts: CVA (4CVA): 24-30(15)/11-16(6) should be 24-30(15)/11-16(7.5). The fighters carried by the CVA are 1 full squadron of F-14s (8) and 1 full squadron of A-10s (7). This matches the individual CVA counter and SIT from F&E2010. Thomas Mathews 29 Apr 2015

File F001 from Ryan, cleared by SVC
Federation SWAC: Date available should be Y171 (not Y170). Rationale: Both F&E rule 518.12 and the SFB Master Fighter Chart specify that the E-2 enters service in Y171. - Jason E. Schaff 01/12/2014
>>>Concur: Available date should by Y171.

DONE

Federation SDS: Factors are given as "20(10V14)/10(5V6)", the crippled side should be changed to 10(5V7)

DONE

DX: This unit (from CL #46, page 122) is missing. F Brooks, 3 April, 2015.

ACTUALLY, THAT UNIT IS ON THE SIT I HAVE, THE ONE I JUST POSTED, MUST BE AN OLD REPORT?

Mega-H (All variants): Y179. >>> Problem already taken care of it looks like.

NO ACTION TAKEN

=========
SDS build cost listed as 41+28, should be 41+48 (conversion costs are correct) - Alan De Salvio 15 April 2015
>>> Concur 41+48 for SDS

DONE.

HVH build cost listed as for HAC:10+20 should be for HAC:10+16 - Alan De Salvio 15 April 2015
527.131 says F111s are full price on auxes - got it.
>>>Concur already on SIT
However:
HFM build cost listed as 441.4 1+18 but should be 441.413 2+9 (527.143) using the standard rules Alan De Salvio 16 April 2015
>>> According to 441.413 the cost of the F-111 HFM should be 2+9.
