Well, GSF did letters, but both sets have a 'rule 6', which for both versions happen to be 'Readiness States'.


Unless he's asking about something completely smart-@$$...

Bruce is refering to Rule #6, There is no rule #6. Which of course comes after rule #5, No poofta, and before rule #7, No poofta

Y'all are crazy.

1. Monty Python sucks.
2. British humor (Humour?) is... odd. Deal.
3. Ratha loves numbered posts
4. So does Bengaley.

I know who I am, what I am, when I am, where I am, and how I am. Why I am is either up to God or will give me Godlike powers.

Starfire PDC Construction
« Reply #10 on: November 09, 2007, 09:06:14 AM »
I have a question about Starfire construction rates.  

SY and SYM are clear, but the planetary build rates I'm a bit confused about.

I know that for a planet to build ships, bases or SS it needs at least one (SP) and that the rate is 5 + TL.

But what is the build rate for PDCs?  I recall something from Imperial Starfire where building weapon armed PDCs there was a per turn build rate of 1/4 of the EVM.

You are right that rule is from Imperial Starfire. 15.09.06.2 It reads, in part:
Quote
Ground base "hulls" on inhabited worlds must be built by planetary industry, and the maximum building rate for any single ground base is 1/4 hull space per EVM of the building population per month. (Thus a planet with an EMV of 400 could build 100 hull spaces of a single ground base's "hull" per month.)

I recall that back in the days of the 3DG it was agreed the build rate would be 1/4 Hull Space per PU+IU of the building population. (Thus a planet with 300 PU and 100 IU could build 100 hull spaces per month.)

Thanks, I'll go with that.  Got a planet needing something quick before the survey ships call in something ugly on them.  Likely won't do much good though. :D

From what I gather a ship must have an intact datalink, whether it be a Z up to a Z2ch, to make use of datalink point defense(s) of another ship in the datagroup. So what if the ship in question had no Dz, Dx, etc., of it's own? Will it still be protected as long as its Z is intact?
