RE: [FT] Some ideas on crew quality (longish)

G'day,

I know you're going for simplicity, but just as a lark you could rate
some
cargo hauler crews as 0 and crews of secret mission raider ships (SG/FMA
etc
tie in) as 4 ;)

I like you're morale roll and the way you've let quality modify
initiative
rather than firing success (they're still effectively got the edge to
get in
first and stuff, neat). I'll try and convince Derek to let us try it in
place of strike the colours in our next muck around to see how it goes.

Given their descriptions in the books I'd be tempted (at least
occasionally)
to give them veteran crews.
