Erratic Manuevering and Tractors

Post by FullImpulse »

Can you tractor a vessel using EM? Do you need to make a die roll if you can? Does it stop EM if successful? I know the rules are different from SFB, so just a bit curious.


Thanks.

You can't tractor a vessel that is already using EM (2D4b), but if you tractor a vessel that is not already using EM, it cannot begin to use EM until the tractor beam link ceases (2D4e).

A vessel using EM cannot itself use a tractor beam (2D4b), and a vessel holding another vessel in a tractor beam cannot begin to use EM until the tractor is dropped (2D4e).
