I have not read the LUGTrek books, but am considering purchasing them (TOS version). I have a question about ship assignments. Is it true that the characters have to belong on a Constitution-class ship? If so, is there no way to let beginning characters be on a small vessel?
Also, does the TOS rulebook include ship-to-ship combat rules? Which ships (or classes) are included?
Thanks,
TA
Owen is correct, the starship combat rules are also printed in the TOS Core Book.
Beginning characters may certainly serve aboard a smaller ship than a Constitution. The ships detailed in the Core Book are:
UFP Ships:
Constitution-Class
Ranger-Class
Daedalus-Class
Class-F Shuttlecraft
Antares-Class Science Vessel
T'Pari-Class Surveyor
Civilian Ships:
DY-500-Class Ship
Class-J Starship
Class-B Freighter
Space Cruiser
Klingon Ships:
D-9 "Devil"-Class Battlecruiser
D-7 "Deadly"-Class Battlecruiser
D-5 "Devastator"-Class Battlecruiser
Romulan Ships:
Bird of Prey
Miscellaneous Ships:
Orion Pirate Ship
Tholian Webship
Gorn Battlecruiser
Cheers,
