Improve Countermeasures

With a few tweaks to various systems, you enhance your ship’s ability to deflect attacks.

Preferred Skills: Computers, Engineering, Physical Science.

Effect: Attempt a skill check against your ship’s DC. If you succeed, your ship’s DC increases to the Hard DC against enemy tactics the next round.

Resolve: By spending 1 Resolve Point, an allied crew member in the engineer role can attempt a Patch Hull action immediately for free at a –2 penalty; this doesn’t count as that engineer’s action for this round, and they can attempt it even if they have taken their action this round, but they can’t spend a Resolve Point on the action if they are successful.
