Is there an errata for this book?
Looking at the negali ships, I found something strange. The svirse and the tabecji have almost the same stats, the sole difference between the two being that latter hava a lower engine... but cost more. Using the shipbuilder, the tabercji should cost 328.
And why create two very similar ships?

If it is the one I am thinking of, (sadly I don't have my books with me here at work...) double check the rate of fire on the guns. I think the less expensive one has a smaller RoF.
Heck, you are right!
Now, I wonder why we have two almost identical ships, with two almost identical weapons...
BTW, by looking closely at the negali weapons, I can see that the 'same' weapon can have two different range, etc.

I believe that Cricket has mentioned in the past that he used the same names for weapons on different ships but gave them different stats to show that while they might be the same KIND of gun, that one over there is bigger...or it has more barrels...For those of us with rather squishy grey matter it has gotten confusing at times, especially if we are used to seeing things like light/medium/heavy, etc, and I for one have screwed up a couple of times due to this.

There is also the likelyhood of one ship type being an earlier/later model of the other, reflected in the "upgraded" weapons, engines, etc.
I agree that the 'same' weapon on different ships can have different stats. But it's a bit confusing. If different, it should have a different name. Just to avoid confusion, of course.
Marc
I'm confused... what is the issue? That weapons with the same name have different stats, or that two ship classes have identical capabilities?
No, I WAS confused. I assumed that two weapons with the same name should have the same stats. In fact, they have not!
I also wondered why two cruiser-type ships had almost the same stats, but they have not, again. Although they are still very similar.
No problem with that, now. I just prefered to have something more different ship classes.
