Notes[]

  • Increases sensor profile and reduces range.
  • Disabled if any ships in fleet have insufficient CR. Commonly because they are mothballed or in a big fleet that has suffered a hyperspace storm strike.
  • Costs 50% of fleet deployment costs per use and prevents CR recovery.
  • Used for a brief burst of speed for escape or pursuit of enemy fleets.
  • Unique & powerful uses near movement hampering terrain as Emergency Burn completely ignores most terrain movement modifiers. This is of particular use when navigating close to a sun's corona, pushing through a pulsar beam or hyperspace storms, and escaping the perils of a Black Hole's event horizon.
