Expansion Bays

An expansion bay houses a facility designed for downtime activities, including healing, recreation, research, and socialization. Player starships have a number of expansion bays determined by their frame. The exact location of an expansion bay on a player starship is determined by the players and GM when they create their starship map. Many expansion bays occupy their own room on a starship, while others might occupy the same room as a battle station or other expansion bay. All expansion bays come equipped with escape pods Some expansion bays grant new activities or special benefits to crew members. Using an expansion bay's activity and gaining its benefits typically require a creature to enter the expansion bay. Most expansion bay activities are resolved during downtime.
