Parts you could sabotage to make this process slower:
  • Replacement plasma emmiter nozzels. This will force them (sheilds and select parts of the drive crew) to repair/clean the existing ones.
  • The High Precision High Voltage Meters. There aren't a ton of them, but they're used regularly. They're scattered between shields, power, weapon maint, and drive, but being down even a few of them will slow down the repair work. It will also make half the ship annoyed at each other as they jocky for possession of the remaining HPHV meters.
  • Hide/Loose/Damage the special solder used to work with the magnetic field generators.
I'm open to suggestions of parts that could be sabotaged to stop the maintenance of those two things.
I'm guessing Daymar will be kept pretty busy trying to fix the problem that he caused, but he might be able to "find" (and break) other parts along the way. To start, losing that solder you mentioned sounds doable - what shall he roll against to do so?
