Quick Related to Reliability Ratings
Both the NG and Starships write-ups for the Intrepid Class Explorer indicate D reliability ratings for both the NG phaser array [Type X (x3/D)] 5/5/4/0/0 and the Starships [Type X (x4/D)] 6/5/5/0/0
The point is both NG (30) and Starships (40) offensive values would seem to make the reliability rating at C. I feel I must be missing something... am I?
Thanks.

I have no books with me but it sounds like you're forgetting the rule that to calculate your reliability for your weapons array (both beam and missle) you add their OV together and use that aggregate value to determine their rating.
You never take the lowest of the two for weapons. See the NG page 142 for how to calculate weapon reliability ratings. This rule has not changed.
Clarification ACB & Pulse Options
Can I have both together?
It doesn't expressly forbid it in Starships, but I remember that Spacedock does specifically forbid this.
What does everyone and Don think?
