STA Ruleset Questions (Not Bugs)

You can drop ship talents or ship specials, but not frames. That is a great suggestion to add to my expansion notes. Is this to ensure you save PC ships you have created?

Partly to save PC ships. Mostly because I am putting together a sourcebook for a campaign based on FASA's Starfleet Battles board game, Federation and Empire. Allowing a frame to be dropped onto NPC ship cards would be much more efficient when giving ship classes the +, A, and B refits.

Thank you for explaining. I have put it down in my notes to investigate it and see if we can make that work next time I am able to expand the ruleset.

I created a campaign, and then exported it as a module, which is my understanding is generally the recommended procedure. The player ship I created does not seem to have exported with it, but the pregen characters did. Is that a limitation of the export function? Is there an easy way to get the ship in the actual play campaign from the development campaign, or is it just copy/paste the xml or recreate it?

PC ships are not exportable. You could make a NPC ship that can be dropped to the partysheet and it gets converted into a PC ship.
