Gentlemen,
A situation came up in our last T-20 game which we were unable to resolve well. Thus I am asking for your collective wisdom (esp from Hunter et al.).
During combat, my Chief Engineer tried to overpower the manuever drives (page 163 IIRC) in order to make the ship more agile in the face of a missile attack. The rules say that the ship then gets the maximum possible agility based on the Drive-Train of the ship. [I am paraphrasing but I think that is fairly close.]
Question: What is the drive-train of a starship? NO ONE (including the GM) would find rules for that (or the maximum agility for a starship....in our case a standard Far Trader) anywhere. Your help on this would be greatly appreciated before we have to meet again.
