Serenity Starship Energy Weapons
Contents
[hide]Energy Weapons
Due to their energy requirements, a ship can’t mount an energy weapon (or weapons) with a combined die rating that exceeds its Hull. For example, a ship with Hull 3D could have a 2D EMP cannon and a 1D plasma cutter, but no other energy weapons. All energy weapons have a Rate of Fire 1.
EMP Cannon
The electromagnetic pulse cannon does Ionization damage only.

Lasers
Capital-Scale lasers are feasible, but not truly practical due to cost. Targets suffer a –2D when dodging, and the range penalty is reduced by one bracket (e.g., firing at long range only incurs penalties as if firing at medium range). Lasers do not need ammunition.

Plasma Cutters
Used by boarding parties to quickly penetrate another ship’s hull or by scrappers to dismantle old hulks. Plasma cutters ignore a ship’s Armor Rating. If a plasma cutter causes more than 4 damage, it has breached the ship.
