Proposal: You Can’t Spell “Fun” Without Genocide

Times out and passes at 5-2 with one DEF. -Purplebeard

Add a rule entitled “Planetary Assaults”

Sectors may be Raided as if they were Captains at their Position. For the purposes of Raiding, Sectors have a Firepower of 2DICE5 (rolled separately for each Raiding instance) and infinite resources of the type(s) they produce. If Sector’s Ship Class would change to “-” due to a Raid, instead its Spectral Type is set to Brown. The Captain who caused this change should update the Galaxy Map with the new Spectral Type, or add a line of text under the Galaxy Map that explains the change that must be made.

Add Brown to the list of colours in “Resources”, with no resources produced.

Add a subrule to “Modules” entitled “High-Yield Missile Battery”:

* Size: 2
* Assembly Instructions: A Captain must spend 3 Aluminum to install this Module. Cost of Assemblage: 2 Tritanium.
* Effects: Your Firepower is treated as if it were 5 points higher for the purposes of Raiding Sectors.

Well, in Bellatrixian you can’t.

for and this could lead to the introduction of a “terraforming” mechanic to restore Brown sectors to a different colour.

against Gives a big advantage to gaining resources to fighters. Also, I don’t like the idea of destroying production of certain planets.

imperial It is rather advantageous to fighters.

RaichuKFM: I think you mean Brown, and the difference is that Space Stations in Brown sectors have no special trades available to them.
