View Full Version : Ablative armor and ship's datasheet - where to write those down?

Hello,

i cannot find a way to write the "ablative armor" on the ship's sheet. Strangely, i cannot even see a field for the ablative armor on the original ship's sheet of the starships operations manual.

How do you work with this in your games? Just "remember" the values for the different ships arcs / writing them in a text file or such - or adding the ablative armor points to the shields?

Thanks!

I have another big problem. Where are Deflector shields? I cannot find neither them nor any functional for them.

Thank you for the report, but the features in the Starship Operation Manual are not automated or the ruleset code expanded to accommodate the changes. It currently only has automation up to the Character Operations Manual.

Oh, okay, i knew that it's still "WIP" but not that the Starship Operations ain't done at all. Good to know.

But back to topic - does someone have a good idea on how to keep track of those features in the meantime :)

That makes it sound like the finished SOM product isn't finished. It is. The Ruleset needs to be updated to handle it....but that's a moving target every time Paizo releases something.

You're right. "ain't done at all" is a too harsh wording for an overall very good product. I mean - i'm happy that i can get the rulset in FGU, it's so much easier than having to create all that stuff on my own - so it's all good.

I guess i just go for a note sheet for the parts of the ruleset which do not yet have fields to write into.
