SFB: TWIRLING ACES 1
SEGMENT RESULTS
-----------------------
Turn: 10
Segment: 1
Ship: all
-----------------------
Update for t9s4 on Feb 23, 1998:
* > G-Gor-CL: PLG-B comes back online, repaired
I neglected to report that it was repaired as a PLF, which is
detectable with open-for-free-viewing SSD's of this scenario. Hope
that didn't cause any trouble. (It gets destroyed again this segment,
so there's really minimal impact.)
Updated Feb 24, 1998:
* G-Gor-CL's movement changed from impulse 08 to impulse 07.
Updated Feb 25, 1998:
* Due to over-eager marking of shield boxes in moderator's records back
on turn 6 (when this shield was first damaged, and 4 reinforcement were
used), R-Gor-BDD's damage to shield #1 on turn 10 impulse 2 was incorrect.
It had 4 more shield boxes, so the 2 internals are also just shield
boxes, and there are 2 shield boxes left on it now.
* Moderator goofed on listing launch & movements for R12-Gor-PL, but the
hexes and results are unchanged.
* O-Ori-CR is crippled, as of impulse 04.
* O-Ori-CR's movement changed from impulse 08 to impulse 07.

Ship Weapons Fire:
O-Ori-CR: PH3-5,6 @ R-Gor-BDD, under PFC, range 3*2=6, dice {2,5},
1 damage

Ship Weapons Fire:
O-Ori-CR: PHOT-A (full OL) @ R-Gor-BDD, under PFC, range 2*2=4, 1-4 to
hit, die 6, miss
Events:
Note: X24-XXX-DRN does not acquire shuttles as targets until all ships
are destroyed, by scenario rule.
OK, next time (assuming there is one), I'll break out the *real* bones
for the PHOTON roll... I have a pair of Civil War era "bones"
(literally). I just don't know what else to do to help here. Maybe
the Photon launch tube is overdue for service & alignment?!?! Yes,
this would have been a crushing blow of a fully overloaded photon
torpedo through a down shield, and it almost certainly would have
taken out a couple PH1's used next impulse to great effect against
the Orion ship.
=======================
Impulse 04
=======================

R-Gor-BDD: PH1-1,3,4 @ O-Ori-CR, range 1, dice {2,6,4}, 15 damage
Damage Taken:
H-Hyd-LN: 5 damage from impact on wall to shield #1: 5 internals:
7 cwarp, 4 cwarp, 8 shtl, 4 cwarp, 3 damcon
O-Ori-CR: 12 damage from X24-XXX-DRN on shield #1: 4 reinforcement,

3 ph3-5, 8 rwarp, 6 imp, 11 plf-c (torp chosen randomly),
9 cargo, 9 cargo, 10 ph1-4
Events:
O-Ori-CR is crippled now.
About the most suspenseful encounter yet! Just a little different
order given on either side (and a photon fire result other than a
miss!) could have resulted in a major change in the outcome. Both
players are to be commended on their resourcefulness, but I will let
them reveal any specific orders/plans they used, if they see fit to.
I'm sure the results would have been different in a face-to-face,
step-by-step game. I hope we all improve our SFB skills by being in
or just by observing these situations... contingency planning is
crucial to success in such a complicated game.

Impulse 05

Ship Movement:
R-Gor-BDD: TL 1202/E
L-Lyr-DND: FD 2112/F

=======================
Impulse 06
=======================
Ship Movement:
I-ISC-DD: FD 1728/C
R-Gor-BDD: FD 1103/E
L-Lyr-DND: FD 2011/F
Shuttle Movement:
H3-Hyd-SHTL: TL 2728/F
O8-Ori-SHTL: FD 1502/C
R13-Gor-SHTL: FD 1401/A
Shuttle Weapons Fire:
H3-Hyd-SHTL: PH3 @ F4-Fed-SHTL, range 1, die 4, 4 damage
Damage Taken:
F4-Fed-SHTL: 4 damage from H3-Hyd-SHTL
Events:
F4-Fed-SHTL now crippled, max speed drops to 3, speed drops to 2.
Rules C10.134 and J1.3311 interact in a slightly ambiguous way.
I think J1.3311, which requires the shuttle to drop to the new
max speed, allows the drop to speed 2 to preserve EM ability,
because of C10.134. If you know of an official resolution,
please let me know.

Notes & Comments
=======================
*** Turn 10 segment 2 orders due this THU Feb 26 at 18:00 CT. ***
However, if we have issues that cause "pertinent" changes (that would
affect anybody's orders), we'll delay the quick due date to allow 3 days
of think-time. If you foresee a time problem, please speak up. We'll
only speed up as long as we can handle it.
[Hey, Lysander, if you could have waited until segment 2 to fire that
PHOTON, then during the total eclipse on Thursday, it might actually
hit! Also, there's a lunar eclipse two weeks after (at the next full
moon after that new moon), but there won't be enough time to re-arm by
then, unless we go 3 segments per week...]
Turn 10 segment 3 orders due next MON Mar 02 at 18:00 CT.
Turn 10 segment 4 orders due next THU Mar 05 at 18:00 CT.
