Re: Psi Helms & speed limits

well I've had ships moving faster than SR5 in my campaign...quite a bit
faster...but it's rare..and yeah..I'd enver seen any upper limit thing
either...eventually I'd think there'd be a limit simply because you'd have
more SR than you'd need...even with a bad manuverability class....you could
dance around the other ship and hammer them into the ground...not only
that...but at high enough levels...ramming takes on a wonderful
sound...<smile>

so it's not like you hit a "speed limit" it's more like a horsepower
limit....how much are you really going to need most of the time..???
