Notes:

  • Hyperdrives: Earlier model BC-303's have temperamental Hyperdrive Systems. To represent this instability, every time a "1" or a "6" is rolled on the wild die when the Astrogation skill is used, a mishap will occur. With a "1" indicating something negative, for example: an overload or a short circuit; and a "6" indicating something on the opposite end of the spectrum, for example: the hyperdrive becomes over powered and the journey takes less time than expected.

Description: The BC-303, born from the X-303, also known as the 303 Battle Cruiser or more simply as the Prometheus Class is the first class of true Interplanetary and Interstellar Earth ships. While the design has become dated and has limited numbers it is still a key part of the Earth Fleet. While uses in the larger nations like the United States and United Kingdom, it still sees use by smaller nations, as well as civilian agencies. It's main non-military roles center around transport, technology testing, and short to midterm observation. Common military uses include patrol and other frigate type duties. The 303 is also found attached to small to mid-sized off world bases, but it is rarely used as a primary combat platform.
