Umm...
I don't know if anyone already knows this, but there's a small mistake in Serenity RPG. When giving examples in the Ships section under "Complexity" the ship Hotaru is said to have a "Low" complexity (x.6) with 28 points. Later under the "Maintenance Cost" section, Hotaru's maintenance cost is calculated using only the Very Low factor (x0.4). This answer is then used in the "Maintenance" section example with Bester. Turns out the actual monthly maintenance cost for a "Low" complexity Firefly is C480, I guess Bester can keep his job...at least till next month. I find this really annoying because I'm not particually good at math and RPG books need to add up correctly, especially when giving examples! So Long Travellers, Saulsecond
