TNE FF&S Mass Driver Design: Fire Control 2

[snrdg082102]

I'm really confusing myself with the Fire Control step.

Question 1: Have I included the right items based on the rule quoted below on FF&S p. 110?

4. Fire Control: The type and tech level of fire control equipment must be specified. Fire control equipment is available for direct fire, indirect fire, and point defense. A gun may have more than one type. See Section 14.

The Fire Control systems I think are part of the Mass Driver design.

(1) Direct Fire Control:

Sights and Rangefinders Table
Ballistic Computers Table
Point Defense Computers I combined with the Ballistic Computers as a Yes or No option.

(2) Indirect Fire Control

Indirect Fire Sights

(3) Weapon Stabilization

Again thank you for the reply and indicating I'm on the right track. My question came about after I had (1) created the tables for all the Fire Control options in my spreadsheet and (2) before reading the details on Beam Pointers. Luckily, removing the Fire Direction, Beam Pointers, and Master Fire Directors didn't cause any major havoc.

Beam pointers and MFD are starship fire control. Fire direction centres are really for specialist vehicles and not on every artillery vehicle.

Morning (PDT) Shield,

I would have saved myself a little work on the worksheet by reading the supporting text . However, I now have a master for the tables in Chapter 14 Fire Control ready to go for the next project:rofl:
