PD/FSA Technical Readout

This is the technical readout as of 844 DSY (Dominion Standard Year, PD calendar) or 3064 TSR (Terran Standard Reckoning, FSA calendar).

Terminology: Weapon Systems

Weapon	Physrep	Description	Mechanic
Chaingun	Disc gun	Very high maintenance weapons prone to jamming, these relatively inaccurate weapons tend to be used only for cadet powerarmor suits, where they can be serviced easily, and where instructors are teaching tactics as opposed to accuracy.	Each shot inflicts 1 point of damage.
Plasma Disruptor	Disc gun	This weapon projects an erratic stream of nova-hot plasma in front of the wielder. The inaccuracy of the weapon is made up for by the damaging nature of the plasma.	Wielder calls "Flame" when firing. Wielder must empty gun when firing. If hit, target takes 2 points of damage and is immune to "Flame" damage for 10 seconds.
RPG launcher	Dart gun	Built on the same shaped-charge design as Humanity has used for thousands of years, the RPG launcher, while bulky, is a low-complexity and effective means for breaching armor. Due to the bulk of the projectiles, some suits equipped with RPGs may run into ammunition shortages.	Each shot inflicts 1 point of damage.
Assault Bolter	Dart gun	The assault bolter is the pinnacle of evolution for chemical-propelled projectile weapons. The 13mm slug fired by the assault bolter is almost uniformly a dual-material projectile, designed for the shell to deform and transfer kinetic energy while the internal penetrator cuts through armor.	Each shot inflicts 1 point of damage.
Squad Support Weapon	Larami Powerclip	The Mark V SSW is the basic heavy weapon operator (HWO) armament.	Each shot inflicts 2 points of damage.
VLAW - Very Light Antiarmor Weapon	Foam arrow with integral launching band, stored inside one-use tube		A direct missile hit inflicts 1 macropoint of damage. A missile hit also inflicts 2 normal points of splash damage to all within ZOC.
SRAMS - Short Range Antiarmor Missile System	Large nerf rocket launcher		A direct missile hit inflicts 1 macropoint of damage. A missile hit also inflicts 2 normal points of splash damage to all within ZOC.
MLAMS - Multiple Launch Antiarmor Missile System	Spell packets; MLAMS systems will have a maximum number of packets in hand		A spell packet hit inflicts 1 macropoint of damage. Spell packets do not inflict splash damage.
HALO/PHALANX	Green laser pointer.		Does nothing in particular except make people worry that they're going to get their eyeballs fried.

Terminology: Damage Types

For non-macropoint suits, 1 macropoint of damage is equivalent to 6 points of damage. Additionally, if you are in non-macropoint armor and are reduced to 0 HP by a macrodamage hit, you are Dead instead of Unconscious or Dying.

Phyraxian Dominions Powerarmor

• A: Points of armor. M means macroarmor.
• P: Pilot type: N for normal (1 HP), G for Geneered (2 HP), E for either.
• S: Stealth parameters. First number is number of seconds for cloaking; second number is for decloaking. Cloaking is always irreversiblie, vulnerable, and audible. Decloaking is always irreversible, invulnerable, and silent.
• Bays: There are internal bays, and bays on both the left and right arm. Internal and Left bays always carry stim; right bays always carry armor repair.

Note: in the Gamma Quadrant, resupply is very difficult to obtain. As such, modifications to the standard Medium class armors have been developed (Crusader, Avenger, and Glory) to deal with more limited resources.

Notes on Seraphim-class 'armor:

• The right arm bay has 4 stim, not 4 armor repair.
• LAM capability: can use elevators even when normally disallowed. A Seraphim can carry two other powerarmor suits, one in each hand.
• Neutron detonators only do 5 macrodamage to a Seraphim.
• Reflex shield: may stand still for a 5-count to gain 3 additional, non-repairable, macro-armor points. This shield may be used once every 60 seconds. No movement while using this shield.

Phyraxian Dominions Dropships

PD dropship fleets are characterized as smaller forces per ship, more ships, and fewer support ships.

Class	Role	Capacity
Ivan	Mobile force	2 battalions, all equipment.
Dimitri	Attack force	1 battalion, minimal equipment.
Vasili	Personnel transport	4 companies, all equipment.
Mikhail	Strike force	1 company, minimal equipment.
Vladimir	Fast response	2 platoons, all equipment.
Nikolai	Special ops	1 platoon, all equipment.
Andrei	Special ops	1/2 platoon, all equipment.

"All equipment" for a given force takes up 1/2 of the space of the actual force. Thus, if you punt the equipment for a Vasili transport, it can then hold 6 Companies. But they will have no stuff.

"Minimal Equipment" for a given force takes up 1/4 the space of the actual force. Thus, you can trade out equipment for troops on an Mikhail and get 5 platoons.

If half-platoons/companies/etc matter, round up; they can suffer.

Free Sagittarian Alliance Dropships

FSA dropship fleets are typically large, high-occupancy ships, accompanied by (inconsequential) support ships.

Class	Role	Capacity
Titus	Occupation force	1 brigade, all equipment.
Mercutio	Mobile force	1 battalion, minimal equipment.
Theseus	Personnel transport	3 companies and all equipment.
Oberon	Short distance, high speed transport	up to 6 platoons (1 large company), minimal equipment.
Capulet	Special ops and first response	1 platoon, minimal equipment.

"All equipment" for a given force takes up 1/2 of the space of the actual force. Thus, if you punt the equipment for a Theseus transport, it can then hold 4.5 Companies. But they will have no stuff.

"Minimal Equipment" for a given force takes up 1/4 the space of the actual force. Thus, you can trade out equipment for troops on an Oberon and get 7.5 platoons.

If half-platoons/companies/etc matter, round up; they can suffer.

Megacorps

In order of size/influence:

Phyraxian Dominions
Subramanian Cartel	The biggest mercantile Cartel in known space, "the Cartel" (as it's known) is the twelfth richest entity in the Galaxy. This includes the governments of local star alliances in both the PD and FSA.
Petrazavodsk Megacorp	Premier jumpship/dropship manufacturer and heavy manufacturing cartel.
Camelot Interstellar	Primary arms supplier for the PD.
Free Sagittarian Alliance
Hoplite Consumer Technologies	Primary manufacturer of powerarmor for the FSA.
BPMRN Amalgamated	The combined merger of Busch, Philip Morris, RJ Reynolds, and Nabisco, BPMRN ("bip-mrn") has emerged as the primary mercantile cartel in the FSA.
Delphi Heavy Industries	Recent innovator in jumpship/dropship production.
