Re: Player's Forum 2
1) According to the rules a reaction speed check is required for any melee or ranged weapon, so the answer is "yes." (Frankly, they didn't do much to make weightless combat as interesting or deep as it could be. If the starfrontiersman has modified rules there, I'd be happy to look at them.)
2) Hiding? Well, there's fighting, getting past the security lock...but even hiding won't do much good because the ice cutter robot can cut through it all to get to you with its powerful laser. If you can rush past them all and into the ice caves, you could possibly lose them for awhile...but I don't know about 11 days.
