Hello fellow SW-RPG fans,

I have created this (A) skill which I call targeting.  I found it very hard to run starfighter scale vs capital ship scale battles.  Therefore, I made this skill which allows starfighter pilots to target certain weak spots on capital ships.

Note:  This skill could be modified to suit any kind of scale vs different scale.

Mechanical Skill:

        (A) Targeting

        Time taken:  One combat round
        Specializations:  Star Destroyer, Mon Cal Cruisers, Corellian Corvettes, or any other Capital Ship to be targeted.

        (A) Targeting is used just like Starship Gunnery except that it can only be used to fire upon Capital Ships.  If the character hits his target, he or she finds a weak spot on the target and fires upon it.  The character then gets to add his or her (A) Targeting Skill to the damage done.

        This skill is my way of explaining why pilots often target the shield generator towers on Star Destroyers and other weaknesses.  Please write back to me and tell me how you like this skill.
