Notes

  • All enemies had one point of Conviction. This gave them an extra round of battling, which made combats run longer.
  • Using markers on figurines was immensely helpful as a reminder of conditions (stunned, shaken, etc.)
  • Ship was renamed the Nadir after nearly killing a group of Alliance feds.
  • Dr Laos experimented on and released a man after removing his eye.
  • The ship's dolphin was named Daryl.
