8.5 Computer Upratings
Cost: 2 (Class Alpha - duotronic minimum); 4 (Class Beta - isolinear minimum)
Power Requirement: 1 (Class Alpha - duotronic minimum); 2 (Class Beta - isolinear minimum)
Some ships, due to their mission profiles, need particularly efficient or powerful computers. Star Fleet installs computer uprating packages with these ships’ computers. The packages, which consist of both hardware and software, improve the performance of the standard computer system. In game terms, a computer uprating grants a bonus to the result of any Computer Test (+10% Alpha, +19% Beta) made using the ship’s equipment.
Computer uprating packages are not cumulative; a ship can only have one in effect. A single uprating package covers all of a ship’s computer cores.
Duotronic computers can only take the Class Alpha uprating package, while pre-duotronic computers cannot accept any upratings at all.
Cardassian: Cardassian ships may not take the Class Beta computer uprating package, and, in fact, rarely take computer uprating packages at all. Computers on older Cardassian ships (those manufactured prior to 2365 and not since uprated) are more susceptible to virus penetration and other forms of electronic warfare than modern Cardassian vessels.
