The RCV (remotely commanded vehicle) skill
allows the character to control weapons or vehicles from a remote
location. The limitations imposed by reliance on sensors mounted in
the remote vehicle, the absence of subtle sensory inputs such as
motion and the time-lag built into the control transmissions make
RCV Operations very difficult without training. RCV Operations is
always used combined with another skill, such as
Pilot,
Ground Vehicle,
Tac Missile, etc.,
depending upon the type of RCV that is being controlled. The firing
of weapons from such vehicles works the same way, and is rolled
against RCV Operations and
Energy Weapon, RCV Operations and
Heavy
Weapon, etc., depending upon the weapons mounted on the remote
vehicle. The interpretation of sensors mounted in these vehicles
does not require the use of the RCV Operations skill, as the data is
sent directly to the control station and can be read there.
