>>6042384<span class="mu-b">[Tactical]</span> One of the most dangerous packages a torpedo targeting a modern voidship may carry is the Thermonuclear Boosted GRASER warhead. Torpedoes of this type are programming to approach their targets at an oblique angle, and upon reaching weapon’s range, quickly turn and detonate their nuclear shaped charges, vaporising the booster material within to produce ultra-high energy, collimated Gamma rays which lance through their target’s unprotected broadsides. The most opportune time for a directed energy point defence weapon to engage such a munition and expect to hit, is right as it turns to fire — where it presents the largest possible target at the closest range.
<span class="mu-g">You will now take on the role of the weapons technicians participating on Dallas’ side of the competition. DEW Bank D has six point defence capable weapons which will each fire once in this simulated scenario.
*The two(2) LASERs can be fired in preset calibrations L1 and/or L2 each with numbered sections 1 through 6.
*The four MASERs can be fired in preset calibrations M1, M2 and/or M3 each with numbered sections 1 through 4.
*There are five target torpedoes numbered B1 through B5.
<span class="mu-s">There are two ways to fire your weapon. AUTO and MANUAL:
*AUTO:</span> Select a target, weapon calibration template, and numbered section.
Then roll a single d4 or d6 for MASER or LASER respectively. The chosen template and section will be centred over the target and the roll determines in which section the shot lands.
<span class="mu-s">*MANUAL:</span> Select a calibration template, then edit the attached image with a transparent selected tool to place your template on a target. Then roll a single d4 or d6 for MASER or LASER respectively. The roll will determine in which section the shot lands.
*In either weapon mode, a template may end up covering more than one target and thus increase the chances of scoring a hit. Any target filling at least a quarter(¼) of a hit section will be destroyed.
>>6039915>>6039974>>6040082*Your SYNERGY with your crew has granted a total of three rerolls which may be used at your discretion. (That's three over the 6 total shots, not three per shot.)
*Format for AUTO shots should look like this: [Target; Template; Section] (Roll d4 or d6)
E.g [B2; M1; 3] (“dice+1d4” in options field.)
*Format for MANUAL shots should look like an image with one template placed over the targets without resizing or flipping anything. Rotation is allowed. Then an appropriate roll.
> Four(4) MASER rolls and two(2) LASER rolls are required in AUTO or MANUAL format.</span>
