Re: [Spaceships 5] Eggshells and Eastereggs
Ah, so your "SM 0 ship array" is really a "SM 0 missile array". That's reasonable -- I see your point. (I can't speak to the rest of your post, unfortunately, as I'm not really an authority on long-range detection of EM signals.)

Re: [Spaceships 5] Eggshells and Eastereggs
Brett's review (by the way, Thank you Brett), is precisely the kind of thing that helps sales. While it is nice to see the index and/or table of contents, that doesn't do more than hint at what is the value of the content.
Mind you, I am not trying to be a pain, but the contents of Brett's review should be in the official blurb for those who read about the availability of Spaceships 5. The material in his review does a VERY good job of SELLING the idea "buy me" :)

Re: [Spaceships 5] Eggshells and Eastereggs
OK, as this seems to be the official thread for this release I'm going to post the problems I found with it here.
Why does the Polaris Booster Stage (p. 5) have armor on it? I thought the armor went on the (Small) Upper Stage? And why does it have the wrong value for dDR? As a vehicle with an upper stage is is automatically streamlined, which means it gets dDR 20 from Advanced Metallic Laminate Armor. The Polaris Star Probe has several of the same problems, it should be streamlined as it's an Upper Stage, and it's using the streamlined armor value. The Nova III: Chariot-Class Nuclear Booster (p.7) mentions Upper Stage (Mars Lander, Phobos, or Deep Space Rocket), there's a Phobos-Class Deep Space Rocket just below it, but I can't seem to mind a Mars Lander, unless it the Lowell-Class Planetary Lander that refers back to the Nova/Chariot. Now the Phobos-Class Deep Space Rocket, it's said to be an Upper-Stage option for the Nova III/Chariot, but it is neither Streamlined or armored. The Lowell-Class Ascent Vehicle, from what I can read it's supposed to return the crew to earth by itself, but it doesn't have the crew space to do so, it only has seating |

I seem no problem with having Armour in the Front Hull of a spaceship with a Small Upper Stage elsewhere in the Front Hull. If the Spacecraft is therefore Un-streamlined, the dDR is correct at 30. Quote:
