Proposal: Warp Drive

Reaches Quorum and Passes 8-0. -RaichuKFM

If the Proposal titled “Tracer Chip” failed, this Proposal does nothing.

Create a new subrule of the rule whose title is “Modules”, entitled “Warp Drive” and with the following text:

The Module named “Warp Drive” is defined as follows:
Size: 3
Assembly Instructions: You may not Install this Module if your Ship Class is “Space Station”. You may not Install this Module if you have already Installed a Module named “Warp Drive”. You can only Install this Module if another Captain, whose Ship Class is “Space Station”, has the same Position as you. To Install this Module, transfer 2 Resources and 1 Dilithium to any Captain whose Ship Class is “Space Station” and who has the same Position as you. If the Captain who would receive these Resources is unable to accommodate the new total with their current Hold, then you cannot Install this Module.
Effect: This Effect can only be Activated as a Daily Action. You may not Activate this Effect if you are unable to Jump, either because you have already Jumped that day or because of some other effect that prevents you from Jumping. To Activate this Effect, you must pay 1 Dilithium. When you Activate this Effect, you may immediately Jump as though your Ship’s Speed Specification was 1 greater than its current value.

Since there’s no precedent for this yet, I have to assume that assembly instructions and effects read best in second person instead of third person (since the rule that governs modules states that the Captain must “follow the Assembly Instructions”, i.e. the instructions apply directly to them).
