Hy guys!
I feel a bit stupid for asking since nobody else seems to have had problems with this issue but here goes.
What I don't understand is the action economy of the ship combat described in the skulls and shackles player's guide.
It seems that the pilot may take a standard an a move action while piloting. This means he could accelerate (thereby moving the ship's speed) as a standard action and then move forward as a move action (meaning he moves his speed plus his acceleration).
But what happens if he moves forward as a move and then fires a spell as a standard?
Does the ship take an uncontrolled action or does it not move altogether?
The reason I ask is in the first case it would mean the pilot must dedicate all of his actions to piloting. In the other case it would be as if the ship stopped (or any way moved less than the other) because he fired a spell. The latter doesn't make sense to me, but the uncontrolled seams quite harsh. What are peoples opinions on the matter?.
Thanks in advance
