Argo Grav Deck?

[Daryk]

Any chance we'll see rules for that very interesting grav deck design Harebrained Schemes gave their ship the Argo?

Not anytime soon.

I can wait... Just knowing we might see it eventually in the rules gives me sufficient license to fluff grav decks that way.  Thanks!  O0

The video game isn't canon, so the chances of it being given rules/fluff to match in the tabletop game is <1%.

It isn't perfect, but the idea of a convertible grav deck that doesn't require complete reconfiguration of its interior if a ship is under thrust isn't a bad one.  I think it would be worth a modest amount of additional tonnage, and combined with the loss of floor space, it would be suboptimal in a lot of ways.  And to be clear, I'm not asking about any other aspect of the ship (place in canon, docking collars, etc.).  HBS had a novel idea for a grav deck and thankfully shared it with us.

Simple. Open up your copy of TacOps. Go to the rules for Grav Decks. Add DropShips to the unit types it's available to. Pretend it's always been like that and you just never noticed until now.

Done.

Certainly, house rules are always an option, but again, I'm not asking for grav decks on dropships (or any other bending of the rules HBS did), just a convertible version for installation on ships that normally carry them.  It would seem to be a good fit for an XTRO at some point.

 Sure. Maybe. Knock yourselves out.
