Minimal aspect
From Peace Station Encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to searchA type of evasive maneuver, Minimal aspect (also known as Defensive posture) means the starship performs a series of pitches and rolls in order to present the smallest possible aspect (profile) to enemy vessels, making the vessel harder to hit.
Minimal aspect allows a ship to break an opponent's Lock On maneuver. The Come About and Hard About maneuvers have the same basic effect but are more effective when facing only one vessel while minimal aspect affects all vessels targeting the executing ship.
