Rigger Electronic Warefare Action Guide

Infiltrate Channels

Test: Electronics (Electronics Warfare)
Complimentary: None
Target Number: 6
TN Modifiers: Difference between targets remote control deck rating and intruders protocol-emulation module
Action: Complex
Base Time: 10 Turns
Result: Each success locates one remote channel (Command, Simsense or System). Successes can reduce time taken or can add to the Infiltration Factor.
Page Ref: R3 pg. 36


Defeat Remote Deck (Broadcast) Encryption

Test: Device Decryption Rating
Complimentary: Electronics (Electronics Warfare)
Target Number: Encryption Rating + 4
TN Modifiers: As per situation
Action: Complex
Base Time: (Encryption Rating x5) minutes
Result: Success decrypts signal and can reduce base time. Failure alerts target network. Subsequent tests are at +2 TN.
Page Ref: SR3 pg. 289 R3 pg. 36


Detect Infiltration

Test: Remote Deck Rating (when an infiltrator takes an action)
Electronics (Electronics Warfare) (when actively seeking infiltrators)
Complimentary: None
Target Number: Infiltration Factor [Intruders Electronics (Electronics Warfare) rating plus additional successes allocated from Infiltrate Channels Test)
TN Modifiers: As per situation
Action: Complex (or whenever infiltrator takes an action)
Base Time: N/A
Result: Success detects infiltrator, network goes on alert.
Page Ref: SR3 pg. 289 R3 pg. 36


Switch Channels

Test: Automatic. Electronics (Control Systems) to reduce base time)
Complimentary: None
Target Number: Remote Deck Rating
TN Modifiers: As per situation
Action: Complex
Base Time: Remote Deck Rating x 2 turns
Results: Infiltrating deckers lose communication
Page Ref: R3 pg. 36-37


MIJI Test (Intruder)

Test: Electronics (Electronics Warfare) [Contested]
Complimentary: Remote Control Deck Flux Rating
Target Number: Remote Control Deck Rating
TN Modifiers: As per situation
Action: Complex
Base Time: Complex Action
Results: Success Targets channel takes damage equal to net successes
Page Ref: R3 pg. 37


MIJI Test (Target)

Test: Electronics (Electronics Warfare) [Contested]
Complimentary: Remote Control Deck Flux Rating
Target Number: Protocol Emulation Module Rating (for meaconing, intrusion or interference)
ECM Rating of Intruders Device (for jamming)
TN Modifiers: As per situation
Action: Complex
Base Time: Complex Action
Results: Success: MIJI attack resisted.
Page Ref: R3 pg. 37


Meaconing

Test: MIJI
Results: Degrade target channel
Page Ref: R3 pg. 37-38


Intrusion

Test: MIJI
Result: Implant false sensor contact
Page Ref: R3 pg. 38


Intrusion: Observe False Sensor Contact

Test: Perception
Complimentary: None
Target: 4
TN Modifiers: Additions to TN from intruders programming of false contact
Action: In response to false signal or Simple
Base Time: Instant
Results: Contact recognised as false
Page Ref: R3 pg. 38


Intrusion: Clean Sensor Feed using ECCM

Test: ECCM Rating of Device
Complimentary: None
Target: Intruding Rigger Protocol Emulation Module
TN Modifiers: As per situation
Action: Complex
Base Time: Instant
Results: Removes false signal if the number of successes generated is equal to the intruders net MIJI test successes
Page Ref: R3 pg 38


Intrusion: Construct False Sensor Contact

Test: Computer (Programming)
Complimentary: None
Target: 4
TN Modifiers: As per situation
Action: Sustained
Base Time: 1D6+1 hours
Results: Each success adds one to the target number for perception test to recognise false sensor contacts
Page Ref: R3 pg 38


Jamming

Test: MIJI
Result: Command Channel: Adds TN to drone comprehension and IVIS tests. If signal is lost drone is cut off and follows last command.
Simsense: Adds TN to Perception, Manual Gunnery, Riggers TN and initiative. If signal is lost rigger suffers dump shock
System Channel:Adds to TN for indirect fire tests and counters smart link modifiers.
Page Ref: R3 pg. 39


Interference

Test: MIJI
Result: In each combat phase after initial MIJI test, intruder and target make MIJI tests. This continues until target or intruder has taken 10 boxes of damage to the system channel. Who ever wins takes control of the network. Who ever loses gets dumped.
Page Ref: R3 pg. 40


Regenerate MIJI damage

Test: ECCM rating of targets device
Complimentary: Electronics (Electronics Warfare)
Target: Intruders Device Rating (Either Rigger Protocol Emulation Unit or ECM)
Action: Complex
Base Time: Instant
Result: Ever 2 successes ‘heal’ 1 box of signal degradation
Page Ref: R3 pg. 40


Re-Connect Lost Carrier Signal

Test: Electronics (Control Systems)
Complimentary: None
Target: 4
Action: Complex
Base Time: Instant
Result: If number of successes is equal or great than boxes of damage on the signal degradation monitor, to carrier signal is reconnected. Carrier signals can only be reconnected when the signal has been regenerated to below 10 boxes (through Regeneration MIJI damage)
Page Ref: R3 pg. 40


Reboot Remote Control Network

Test: None
Complimentary: None
Target: Automatic
Action: 3 Complex Actions to shut down deck
Base Time: (Remote Control Deck Rating) turns to reboot. 10 Turns to re-establish channels
Result: All signal channels are fully healed
