Capitol Ship Battery Rules

Battery Rules: fire linking individual weapons in groups of 3 or more to achieve better fire control and damage; no more than 10 weapon systems can be combined into a battery (see the list below for bonus's). Also linking weapon systems like this results in less gunnery crew to operate the weapon system(s) by merging hardware and software controlling mechanisms of the weapon. This is also the only weakness, because if one weapon gets destroyed or heavily damaged it can possibly make the entire battery group that it is in become non-operative until repaired.

This modification can only be added to the weapon systems either during ship construction or during a major refit; if installed during a major refit, then this can only be done at Imperial grade facilities.
