In Response To: Re: In Amber Clad loadout discussion (dude1) : regarding damage control techs: we really don't see many onboard, as far as i
Still, you do have damage control techs, have you seen the new Battlestar gallactica miniseries? plenty of damage control there. Basicly they are going to put out fires [which we see plenty of], make structural patches, jury rig busted systems, repreassurise busted compartments, unstick airlock doors, masicly stuff of time critical importance. Note however that they may contribute to the general maintence, only being broken off for auctual damge control. : regarding aircraft maintenance: there's not much in the way of crew in the
