As Josh and I discussed on EDR, there is a new damage table in the version of DW Fleet Action that is going to be included in the DW 2.5 book. In that version, pretty much everything works the same as in the current Fleet Action, except the attacker rolls 2D6 on a different damage table. if you exceed the DR, it's one roll, 2x DR is two rolls, etc. The table looks like this:
2D6 Roll-Effect
2- 1 Disorder
3- 1 Damage
4- 1 Damage, 1 Disorder
5- 2 Damage
6- 2 Damage, 1 Disorder
7- 3 Damage
8- 2 Damage, 1 Disorder
9- 2 Damage
10- 1 Damage, 1 Disorder
11- 1 Damage
12- 1 Disorder
So, the big thing you notice looking at the above is that this new table is somewhat more deadlier than the old; the only results which result in only disorder and no damage at all are 2 and 12! To be clear, the defender no longer rolls when it comes to the damage table, just the attacker.
Granted, this has been put out with DWFA, but FA and Firestorm TF are so similar that I see no reason why this couldn't be "copy and pasted" into TF.
What do you guys think? I know that the old table was a particular point of contention with some of you. Does this look any better?
