New Maneuvers
Dogfighting: When two starfighters are present in the same square, one of them is allowed to initiate the dogfight maneuver as a standard action. The pilot initiating the maneuvers must first win an opposed pilot check, in witch the defender has a +5 circumstance bonus. If this is successful, both ships remain in the same square for the duration of the dogfight. Once in a dogfight both ship get a +1 to attack and defense for each 5 points of pilot skill total their pilot has, rounded down. To escape a dogfight, an opposed pilot check must be rolled, in witch the other pilot gets a +5 circumstance bonus.
Jinking: As a move action, a pilot can move the ship erratically in order to present a more difficult target for attackers. The pilot makes a Pilot check. The result determines the bonus to the starship’s Defense. Unfortunately, the erratic movement also provides a penalty to any attacks made from the jinking starship.
This Pilot check is modified by the size of the jinking ship, as follows:
Size Modifier
Colossal –16
Gargantuan –8
Huge –4
Large –2
Medium +0
Small +2
Tiny +8
Diminutive +12
Fine +16
