Cloaking playtest rules

Aside from the game balance issues, it seems to me that in-universe Emergency Deceleration is a dramatic manoeuvre that has the warp engines stretching spacetime all over the place in a way that's going to be obvious to sensors even if you're invisible (like a submarine going full astern and generating massive cavitation noise, you might be submerged but if you're louder than a Disaster Area concert you're not hiding from anyone).

While I have not playtested them at this time, I think the new rule as amended by SVC is logical and makes good sense for the game. Just my 2 credits.

Gents did this go out like this? I saw that you updated it MJWest. This rule makes the cloak actually worth it n my opinion and I will do my best to finally get a play test report in with my 8 year old lol.
