Modified Warp Core

Dave the other day came to me wanting to adventure dealing around the warp core engine. The adventure dealt with the replacement of the warp core and upgrades. The power generation drop it by 10% of listed power to allow for the following warp core lists upgrade power use.

So here is what I came up with is the following. First pull off five Su’s worth of warp engine cost and use the following to create the warp core.

Modified Warp Drive Systems Table
Warp Engine - SU -- Power Generated per round
Class 1/A -- 15 -- 10-99
Class 2/B -- 25 -- 100-149
Class 3/E -- 35 -- 150-199
Class 4/G -- 45 -- 200-249
Class 5/H -- 55 -- 250-299
Class 6/K -- 65 -- 300-349
Class 7/M -- 75 -- 350-399
Class 8/N -- 85 -- 400-449
Class 9/O -- 95 -- 450-499
Class 10/P -- 105 -- 500-549
Class 11/Q -- 115 -- 550-599
Class 12/R -- 125 -- 600-649
Class 13/S -- 135 -- 650-699

Matter/Anti-matter Injector Efficiency
Upgrade Class / SU’s / Efficiency / Power increase
Class 1 / 1 / +0 / 0%
Class 2 / 2 / +1 / 1%
Class 3 / 3 / +2 / 2%
Class 4 / 4 / +3 / 3%
Class 5 / 5 / +4 / 5%

Magnetic Constriction segment Enhancements
1 SU for any of the following enhancements structural integrity, this would be for a ship that would be more of a combat vessel. The MCS operational efficiency (+1) with an increase of 1% power generation.

Dilithium Crystal Articulation Frame
Upgrade Class / SU / Efficiency Power Increase
Class Alpha / 1 / (+0) / 0%
Class Beta / 2 / (+1) / 1%
Class Gamma / 4 / (+2) / 2%
Class Delta / 8 / (+3) / 3%
Class Epsilon / 16 / (+4) / 4%

Dilithium Crystal Articulation Frame
Auto-dilithium Crystal Realignment (cost 2 SU’s)
Multiple Matter Stream orientation (cost 2 SU’s) increase of 10% power
Auto Dilithium Crystal Re-crystallization (Cost 1 SU)

Example: Taken from the Galaxy-class as an example of the use to the upgrades from a modified Galaxy-class that we use in our games.
Warp Engine Type: Class 12/R (generates 620 Power/round) <132>
Location: Engineering section
Upgrades: <8>
Matter/Anti-matter Injection Efficiency Class 3 (+2) (increase in power 2% generation)
Magnetic Constriction Segment Efficiency (+1) (increase in power 1% generation)
Dilithium Crystal Articulation Frame Efficiency (+1) (Increase in power 1% generation)
Auto Dilithium Crystal Re-crystallization system
Impulse Engine[s]: 2 class 7 (generates 56 Power/engine/round)
Auxiliary Power: 4 reactors (generates 5 Power/reactor/round) <12>
Emergency Power: Type F (generates 50 Power/round) <50>
EPS: Standard Power flow, +330 Power transfer/round <73>
Standard Usable Power: 757 (This gives the ship 25 points of more power to the ship)

Combat
Using the Starship hit location table. When the impact comes to warp engine use the following to show the damage. The sub-subsystem damage chart used as the damage.

Roll / Sub-subsystem
1-5 / warp engine use the chart’s noted
6 / any one of the upgrades damaged.

Looks good. I added it to my Spacedock list.


Keep up with such good work!

Does anyone have any modifications that I missed for the ships warp engines. Apearantly not exactly what Dave was looking for in the adventure.
