Hi, all.

In a recent game, my opponent and I found that we were reading from different rulebooks. I was reading from the Rulebook https://www.trekcc.org/op/1e_rulebook/ , and he was reading from the "Basic Rulebook" https://www.trekcc.org/op/1e_rulebook/?streamlined=y .

We found a discrepancy in the rules for personnel battle, were you determine the extra kill for the losing force. The Rulebook says:

Randomly select a combatant from the losing force who is not already mortally wounded. That combatant becomes mortally wounded.

The Basic Rulebook says:

The winner randomly selects one of the unstunned, un-wounded personnel from the losing side as a casualty. The casualty dies.

In the first, stunned personnel are part of the selection, but in the second, they're exempt.

This is a clear error. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. It will be fixed presently.

The Complete Rulebook is correct: Randomly select a combatant from the losing force who is not already mortally wounded.

I apologize to your friend who was using the Basic Rulebook. It's awful when the rules say something that isn't correct.
