Hi everybody,
in my try to do a complete BV2 database similar tot he Master Unit list i stumpled upon the missing BV values for warships regarding Version 2.0
So i grabbled my StratOps and tried to do it my own but then stumpled again…no BV2. I did matched the ones given for some designs and maybe i´m missing something.
I did some examples according tot he rules in StratOps Page 161.
Calculating the defensive BV modifier is simple, but i happens i´m missing something in the offensive one. Here are my examples:
Soyal Heavy Cruiser
Official BV2: 107.892
Self calculated BV2: 81.168
As it says in the rules, you should take the highest BV arc and calculate it at 100%, the second highest also (except for overheat), the opposite arc oft he first also and the remaining arcs at 25%. So i did it and received the following Battle Values fort he soyal:
Nose 100% 23856
RBS 100% 11016
Aft 100% 16632
LBS 25% 2754
AR 25% 2754
AL 25% 2754
FR 25% 3504
FL 25% 3504
Total Arc BV: 62767,56
A total weapon BV of 66774 modified by the Offensive speed factor. Given the soyals maxthrust of 5 this will be 0,94 = total offensive BV: 62767,56
Offensive Speed factor: 0,94
Defensive BV: 18400
Offensive BV: 62767,56
Total BV: 81.168
Next Example is
Athena Cruiser
Official BV2: 107.892
Self calculated BV2: 86.336
Nose 100% 22752
RBS 100% 11088
Aft 100% 48390
LBS 25% 2772
AR 25% 3637,5
AL 25% 3637,5
FR 25% 3637,5
FL 25% 3637,5
Total Arc BV: 99552
Offensive Speed factor: 0,77
Defensive BV: 9680
Offensive BV: 76655,04
Total BV: 86336
What did i do wrong?
