As in the old FASA TCS game the more percentage of the crew you
lost the more ineffective the ship became, in this case as you
lose CF's the damage control becomes less effective. In the TCS game
you also got to hit modifiers on the weapons and AFAIK weapons lock
but that would spoil the basic FT simplicity so lets just limit it to
DCP's.

The similarity to the TCS system may not be an accident of design?
