Voidship Management

Manage your voidship in "Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader"! Learn about Speed, Manoeuvrability, Damage Reduction, Shield Strength, Armour Plating, Hull Integrity, and component stats.

Vital Statistics: The lower screen displays essential voidship parameters. Speed determines the VMP you gain at the start of your turn. Manoeuvrability dictates the cells your ship must travel before it can turn 45°, with higher ratings requiring shorter distances. Damage Reduction (Ram) reduces damage when ramming another voidship, while Damage Bonus (Ram) increases the additional damage dealt during a ramming attack.

Shield Strength and Armour Plating: Shields absorb a percentage of incoming damage, while armour plating reduces damage that bypasses your shields.

Hull Integrity: This functions as your ship's lifebar. After taking combat damage, you can restore hull integrity using scrap.

Upgrades: You can spend scrap to upgrade your hull, increasing integrity, and your ramming capabilities (increasing damage dealt and decreasing damage received). The cost of upgrades is as follows:

• Level 1: 50 scrap
• Level 2: 65 scrap
• Level 3: 85 scrap
• Level 4: 115 scrap
• Level 5: 155 scrap
• Level 6: 215 scrap
• Level 7: 305 scrap
• Level 8: 430 scrap
• Level 9: 605 scrap
• Level 10: 860 scrap
