STA Ruleset Questions (Not Bugs)

You can drop ship talents or ship specials, but not frames. That is a great suggestion to add to my expansion notes. Is this to ensure you save PC ships you have created?

Partly to save PC ships. Mostly because I am putting together a sourcebook for a campaign based on FASA's Starfleet Battles board game, Federation and Empire. Allowing a frame to be dropped onto NPC ship cards would be much more efficient when giving ship classes the +, A, and B refits.

Thank you for explaining. I have put it down in my notes to investigate it and see if we can make that work next time I am able to expand the ruleset.

I created a campaign, and then exported it as a module, which is my understanding is generally the recommended procedure. The player ship I created does not seem to have exported with it, but the pregen characters did. Is that a limitation of the export function? Is there an easy way to get the ship in the actual play campaign from the development campaign, or is it just copy/paste the xml or recreate it?

[superteddy57]

PC ships are not exportable. You could make a NPC ship that can be dropped to the partysheet and it gets converted into a PC ship.

Ok, I made a new campaign and set it to 2E.

How do I make a roll with a focus applied?

How do I get a character's weapons/attacks to show up on the actions tab?

[superteddy57]

Focus button near the chat entry

You will need to equip weapons in the inventory

Thanks for the quick response!

Another question: is there a way to roll more than 2 d20s on the Main tab? In the other tabs, clicking, dragging, and right-clicking adds d20s, but it doesn't seem to work on the Main tab.

[superteddy57]

you can place a number in the modifier box to increase the number of d20s in the pool. Note, it doesn't stop at the 2d20 max of 5 d20s

How does the 2E ruleset work with a previously-purchased 1E?
