The operator manages the ship's internal systems. They can use their turn to boost certain ship functions.
A ship can only have one Operator.
Boost engines
Make an INT Test to send energy to the ship's thrusters, giving the Pilot Advantage on their next Piloting DEX Test, but only if they perform one in their next available turn.
Boost Shield
Make an INT Test to strengthen the ship's shields. If successful, the next damage the ship takes does not require you to roll your Shield Usage Die.
Boost Blasters
Make an INT Test to send extra energy to the ship's blasters. On the next successful hit, the opponent's usage die fails on 1-3.
