Yes, you are all correct, I'm having an Alsheimer's moment.
(I managed to dig up my SFB manual after I posted)
The Klingon player gets one dreadnought.
The Kzinti gets six pursuing forces, from a battle cruiser
to a freighter.
Six scenarios are played. 1d6 is rolled to determine which
pursuing force is in this scenario. If the roll indicates
a force that has been already destroyed, that scenario is
skipped.
Every 20 turns, an additional pursuing force is rolled for.
Any Kzinti vessels captured by the Klingon become Klingon
escorts.
Each captured vessels starts with the Klingon prize crew being
unable to operate the weapons. Inbetween each scenario, each
prize crew has a 50% chance to figure out how to fire them.
Ordinance may not be replaced inbetween scenarios, and only
limited damage control is available.
At the end of turn 40 of the last scenario, an overwhelming
Klingon relief force arrives and destroys any Kzinti
ships left on the map.
If the Kzinti capture the Klingon dreadnought, they win
an overwhelming victory. If they destroy the dreadnought,
they win a decisive victory.
If the Klingon escapes through all six scenarios, they win
a substantial victory. If in addition they inflict 100
points total damage on Kzinti, the Klingons win a decisive
victory. If they inflict 200 points total damage, the
Klingons win an overwhelming victory.
Now it seems to me that this could be adapted to, say
an ESU dreadnought fighting its way through NAC space?
