Build:Atmospheric Capability

4.7 Atmospheric Capability

Cost: 1 x Size for full units; 0.25 x Size for detachable parts of a starship.

This allows a vessel to manuever within atmospheres with no incurred damage. Prior to 2285, only ships of Size 5 or smaller may be so equipped.

(Klingon: Since they regard the ability to enter atmospheres and land on planets as a tactical advantage, the Klingons often provide their smaller ships with these hulls. Klingon pilots fighting near planets have learned they can duck in and out of atmospheres to lose pursuers, hide from an enemy’s sensors, or ambush unwary opponents.)
