Perhaps I wasn't very clear with my definition of terms in the
agility equation
"Power Required for maneuver drive": this is the amount of power which is
normally drawn by the manuever drive
(I don't have my books with me but I think it is (per ton of drive)
65MW for anti-grav drive
70MW for Thruster plate drive (this is for every 13.5 KL of drive)
"Excess Power": Is the amount of power left over after all systems have
been powered (Sensors, Weapons, Drives, Environ, Comm, etc. etc.)
The "Excess Power" can be negative. The Weapons may draw more power
than is available after all systems have been powered. In this case
the power is being diverted from the maneuver drive to the weapons
enabling them to fire. This will have an adverse effect on maneuver/agility.
(note that the weapons may not draw more power than the total output
of the power plant)
Thus the equation:
(Power req for maneuver drive + "excess" Power)
Agility= -----------------------------------------------*10
