The galaxy is in chaos, and most people will only
barter or trade favors for precious goods and
services. If someone is willing to accept cash,
the standard currency of the galaxy is Bits.

Ask your Galaxy Master if your Rebels

impounded, out of fuel, in for repairs,
or being fumigated for space maggots.

Before the Legion. Your order is all but extinct,
hunted across the stars and killed by the

you risk discovery when using them. The

discovered by the Dragoons is what
happens to those who helped keep
your secret.

 Space Combat works basically the same as Close Combat and should
move just as fast and freely. There are a few differences however.

Each Rebel takes a Station on the ship at the start of Space Combat.
Enemies will target Stations on the ship during combat. The Rebel at
that Station will take damage if they fail their defense roll, but instead
of their own armor, the Rebels will use the Ship’s Armor.

The Ship’s Armor starts at Tier 2. When a Rebel fails a defense roll, the
Ship Armor reduces by 1 Tier for the next attack that hits.

Tier 0: no damage negation

Tier 1: -D2 damage

Tier 2: -D4 damage

When a Rebel reaches 0HP during Space Combat, consult pg. 16 for
HP rules.

The ship itself doesn’t track HP. If a Rebel is incapacitated or killed, the
station can be taken over by a different Rebel. If all Rebels aboard are
killed or incapacitated, the ship is either captured or destroyed.

It takes one round to change to a different Station. Anything plausible

can be attempted, but each Station comes with basic actions,
including different ways to make defense rolls, replacing the AGI test
for Close Combat.

 “WHAT A PIECE OF JUNK!”
The Legion restricts the installation of
weapon systems, so Rebels will need
to deal with the seedier junk dealers or
gangster-run chop shops to upgrade their
ship’s hardware.

roll to hit and for damage once for each
target).
