Talent Profiles from Solar Echoes (part 2)


Some Cybertech Talents can also be used in Electronic Warfare aboard starships and other vehicles.

Cybertech: EW Training
Though most Cybertech Talents relate to hacking, a few allow for more options when serving as the Com Officer aboard a starship. Characters with this Talent gain a bonus when using Electronics Warfare against enemies, or they can use the Talent to attempt to jam the communications and sensors of enemy starships. This affects enemy piloting and visibility, which is often just the advantage you'll need to defeat them in a starship dogfight.

Engineering Talent: Hasty Repairs
Characters that have invested in Engineering Skills will find that Hasty Repairs is a very useful Talent, also required as a prerequisite for later, more advanced Engineering Talents. This ability allows a character to use his Engineering Skill to try to repair damaged armor or vehicles. If he makes a successful check, he may restore 10 points to armor, a structure, or a vehicle. Imagine how useful a nearby character with Engineering skills would be when your starship's hull is about to crack or you've taken cover under heavy fire and an Engineer is there to repair your damaged armor!
