Category:Technologies

(spoilers!)
 
This implements the "% chance to grant the ship another life at 1 health, if reduced below zero health" mechanic, but based upon playstyle may not be as good an option as, for example, speed, maneuverability, or armor. An Engineering skill of 5 is a considerable investment, since skill points are not infinite.
Remarks: The technology name may be a nod to the archetypal starship's Chief Engineering officer from the 1966 science-fiction series Star Trek, Montgomery Scott, an acknowledged (but not self-confessed) miracle worker.
