RE: [GZG] SUS - Sa'vasku

I would like to see rules for ships that combine the organic and
mechanical
systems.

What does this mean??

Can you explain what this means and how it is supposed to work.

One of the things that doesn't work very well for the SV ships is that
apart
from the drives and stinger nodes they don't get any mass reductions in
their systems. SV shields effectively cost twice as much mass as a human
tech shield (mass of system + mass of generators).

One of the other things about SV ships is that if they get cripplies
they
often can't generate enough power to jump.

Things that might be useful for SV would be the 3 hull rows used in the
UN
fleets.

More systems that use up more energy are not good systems for SV ships.

If you want to expand the range of options available to SV ships then
maybe
you want to look at different kinds of nodes. Changes to the pod
launchers
so they are useful for something other than pod launchers.

If the lance pod is supposed to be the primary AP weapon of the SV then
it
needs to be a bit better than a pulse torpedo with a -1 to hit that does
a
point of damage to it's own ship.
