Default Re: [Spaceships] Heat Signature, Cloaking Device, and Stealth Hull

Heat signature: Hot says it has the signature of a conventional drive. The nearest match for thrust is something like an A-mat Plasma Torch, +10 signature. But it does seem either errata or that you're meant to pick the rating yourself to suit your setting.

Cloaking device: Silhouetted is cumulative with Plain Sight but Cloaking cancels Plain Sight: nothing to see (invisible), so no silhouette sounds logical. So does the "those stars just rippled" line of thought. But I'd go with the Star Trek version.
