Command Checks Clarification

[jjmicromegas]

Hello,

I was looking at the CMD Check chart and noticed that every point of speed lost due to damage reducing the die roll by 1. This makes it more likely to pass a CMD check for having received damage.

I am wondering if this is a typo and it should be a +1 to the die roll or if it was intentional, perhaps it's harder to escape if the ship is too slow to do so?

Thanks for clarifying,
JJ

Yeah, that is to reflect the fact that the ship is less likely to get away if it's speed has been reduced. It's to prevent nearly dead-in-the-water ships from magically teleporting out of combat.
