Notes
Reminder - A ship must have at least one undamaged Science Bay to generate shields.
When collecting data, you get one “unit” of data per success. (So exactly rolling the target number “succeeds” with no data). Being closer will generate more data. [YG 359]. Note that Science Probes can only ask yes/no questions.
Shields do not get used up. One potential house rule is to say that any “6” in the damage roll lowers the shield level by one. [YG 275]
Target locks do not count as units of data. [YG 553]
You may only have as many Targeting Locks as your size [YG 663]
