Hrm...either we've found the thickest patch of air ever, the helmsman decided to take in the scenery, or we've lost part of engineering.  :-\

I told you, watch out for the clouds stuffed with rocks!

(Which leads to a mental image I've had for ages ... okay, imagine you're playing with elevations. Make the topmost elevation a solid cloud layer ... ships rising into the clouds, then dipping out to engage each other. Might make for some interesting tactical play ...)

ooh, ooh! And use hidden movement for ships in the cloud layer, adding suspence, and the always fun possibility of blindly colliding into each other.

A question came up about ships that plot move BEFORE taking an engine hit.

I started a new thread:

Ah, but if you made the bottom-most layer the clouded one, and had it low enough to hide a few mountain ridges... ;) No no no, I never try to kill off my PCs when I DM D&D, NEVER.

Things went great, but the host was exausted by Sunday.  :P

Just to confirm, we are using the official QSR rules, so the "Don't move - Turn two" is allowed.
