Tokmok Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 How much fuel is expended when you make a warp movement? thanks tokmok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOTEC Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Hello Tokmok, The answer is under Warp Movement in the Orders Supplement of the rule books, but Fuel consumed is 1 Fuel for every 1000 tons of mass the fleet is multiplied by the warp difficulty factor. Fuel Multiples are A 1 B 2 C 4 D 9 E 16 F 25 G 36 So a 36,000 Ton fleet moving through a Class C warp point would use... 36 x 4 = 144 Fuel Hope this helps.

ShadowKitsune Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 It rounds up, too. So a fleet that weighs 35,501 tons consumes the same as a fleet that weighs 36,000 tons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clan Elder 'Keen Posted September 28, 2003 Report Share Posted September 28, 2003 Don't forget too that advanced jump technology will reduces fuel consumption. As will multiple engines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T'Lariss Posted September 29, 2003 Report Share Posted September 29, 2003 Don't forget too that advanced jump technology will reduces fuel consumption. As will multiple engines. Clan Elder, I have yet to see evidence of reduced Fuel cost for additional engines. Better Warp Drives and more of them will reduce the "warp bubble" of the ship involved, that is more ships can Jump at the same time (for combat Purposes mostly). If you evidence to the contrary by all means let us know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clan Elder 'Keen Posted September 29, 2003 Report Share Posted September 29, 2003 errr... my latest ships might not get too far if that is the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted September 29, 2003 Report Share Posted September 29, 2003 That's right. with current tech and the stuff the has been alluded to by Pete the cost in fuel has not been affected. THe only advantage you get with multiple jump drives is a smaller warp bubble which really only affects warp point assaults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiver Posted September 29, 2003 Report Share Posted September 29, 2003 Roger that on the multiple jump drives. Fuel cost is not affected. But I add multiple drives anyway just to reduce the jump bubble for these huge Hiver ships.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanon Posted September 29, 2003 Report Share Posted September 29, 2003 Don't forget about those glorious H warp points as x49 for fuel cost. Got to love those babies :lol: They can get you quite a distance. Long Live Emanon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
