A CALL TO ARMS

This document contains all official updates to A Call to Arms: Star Fleet and will be repeated in all reprints of the rulebook. Revised 16/05/2012.

Page 8Drone: Drones can only use a limited number of control frequencies when tracking their targets. No more than three ships may attack any single target with Drones in a turn.

Plasma-D Torpedo: If a ship has not used a loaded Plasma-D torpedo in a turn and is attacked by enemy drones, it may choose to forego any firing of the Plasma-D in that turn and instead gain the Anti-Drone trait with a score equal to the number of Plasma-D torpedoes it is dedicating to this duty. When finished, the Plasma-D torpedo will require reloading. If the ship runs out of ammunition while using the Anti-Drone trait, it may continue to use the Plasma-D torpedo during the battle but will need reloading first.

Page 14The Immobile and Slow traits should be in italics as they can never be lost for any reason. Remove the Lumbering trait and delete all references to it from the rest of the rulebook.

Page 15Seeking: Seeking weapons must travel across space to their target but will doggedly pursue it until they impact and explode with deadly effect. A weapon with this trait will automatically hit a target within 18”, without rolling any Attack Dice. At greater ranges, it will require Attack Dicerolls as normal. Apply modifiers (such as long range) to the Attack Dice as normal.

With the damage spread around the entire target ship, no rolls are made to see if the weapon penetrates Shields.

Page 17Romulans cannot use Plasma Carronades – sorry guys, but your plasma launchers just aren’t built that way!

Page 19Tractored ships may not use the Engage Cloaking Device! Special Action.

When using Transporters, the ship will have Shields 0 in the fire arc to which the transporters are being used.

The most common of the Hawks, the light cruiser known as SparrowHawk has served on all Romulan fronts and theatres, in every fleet. Designed for efficient production (the hulls of the SparrowHawk and the larger FireHawk were more than 80% identical), Spar-rowHawks have been built in vast numbers.

The FireHawk was built in considerable numbers. It was, in effect, a SparrowHawk with a fourth engine, a second type-S plasma torpedo and an enlarged hull packed with extra systems. The excellent spaceframe formed the basis of a bewildering array of even larger (and more heavily loaded) ships such as the NovaHawk, RoyalHawk, RegalHawk, ThunderHawk, KillerHawk and SuperHawk, among others.

Only one ship of this type was ever built, the massive Behemoth. This ship command-ed the 4th Star Legion, which was originally composed of Klingon-built ships. As the General War dragged on, ships were transferred between the Star Legions but the 4th Star Legion was always led by the Behemoth, which remained in service until long after the General War had ended.

By Y175, the Kzintis faced the same problem as all of the other fleets – a lack of true heavy cruisers. The pre-war battlecruisers had suffered steady losses and the production rate of these heavier ships could not keep pace. Ultimately, the Kzintis turned to adding a large section to the back (or top) of their medium cruiser, adding a fourth engine and thousands of tons of additional weapons and equipment. Pro-duced more quickly than the battlecruiser class (which remained in production), the new heavy cruiser kept the fleet up to strength as the General War dragged on.

Appearing just as the General War began, the medium cruiser, like the Klingon D5, was designed for mass production, to greatly enlarge the fleets. Costing 60% as much as a battlecruiser, it had 75% of the firepower and was more efficiently designed. The addition of anti-drones (a system previously ignored by the Kzintis) reflected acceptance that the Klingons were using ever increasing numbers of drones in their fleet. These provided a second layer of defence along with the traditional phaser-3s.
