Yep. Any human provides glitch protection
K, I’ll fix it on my turn
Here I go!
Boost everything except crew for 7. I do have to roll for radiation, but I rolled a 1, so no problem.
Colonist takes an income action for net 1WT.
Form a rocket stack with everything (except the Bernal). Give it 2WT.
Coast:
I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth!
vlog posted, @Matt_W up!
I did, forgot to mention.
Did he have a human in his bernal? I didn’t see one, but maybe I’m blind. I always read that as crew or human colonist.
2 WT in the tank puts your total mass at 12, not 13. Do you want me to add your last WT for you so you have enough for a burn?
And your thrust was 3,not 4 (though that doesn’t matter).
Bernals are human by themselves. There’s a human symbol on them.
Ah, never noticed that before, cool.
Right, thematically, the Bernals are a large space station staffed with all of the attendant support personnel–technicians and engineers who would be able to respond to and repair a glitch.
Thanks for the catch. I only need 2 WT for a burn, since I have a support to my robonaut/thruster that says “1/2 fuel consumption”. The mass should be 12. It’s early :P
Also I think my thrust is 4? Base thrust 5, minus 2 for my support, +1 for ESA privilege. Not right?
Question. Can a Bernal move with any thruster?
-1 for transport class. You had all the numbers right in the file, but missed one in the addition:) Yeah, I’m having my first coffee too.
Yep. A Bernal is basically just another rocket stack. You can move an unpromoted Bernal with a thruster and can use a separate thruster to move a promoted Bernal.
What does the sentence in rule Q8 under “Thruster Activation” where it says “Note that a Bernal Stack cannot be ‘towed’ by another spacecraft” mean?
That’s why I’m asking.
You can’t load a Bernal card onto your rocket.
Ah, and Bernals can’t use flybys ? So basically the rule jut disallows flybys when moving a Bernal (since it must be a Bernal Stack)?
So you have to put your rocket in your Bernal stack, you can’t put your Bernal in your rocket stack. Doesn’t seem to make a huge difference, but ok.
I thought Bernals could enter a flyby. Where is that rule?
