Just because people shoot at your ships it doesn't necessarily mean they don't like you! |

Did anyone else find it funny how the Carronade is worded.
The Plasma Carronade is a special type of Plasma Bolt used only by the Gorn, Federation, and other Empires.
Clumsy wording, what in the world does other empires mean? Is it published somewhere. |

It's a hold over from SFB, and I believe was also included to allow some leeway for future additions (such as the Orion Pirates, who didn't have their big FC product released until later on). |

Yes. It's in the CRUL, which is found at:
http://tinyurl.com/dg7fxe
and it says:
"(4J4c) Only the Federation, Gorns, and Orions use this rule."
Hope this is helpful! _________________

CRUL paragraph (4A4) says that for die roll modifiers caused by Orion stealth etc., when a result greater than '6' is obtained, there is a column shift, and, "For the plasma carronade, move one column to the
left (and anything “left of 1” is a miss)."
Just to clarify, is that a one-column-per-shift thing, like for Phasers and Fusions?
So, for example, would a roll of '6' on the '3' energy column, against a +2 shift, would give 3 damage [as a roll of '6' under the '1' energy column]? _________________

Yes, I'd say it's one column per shift over six. So if you rolled an adjusted "8", you'd go to "6" and shift two columns. _________________ "Captain" Terry O'Carroll, fourteen papers published including six best of issue
