In space, a few hundred kilometers. * Ideal range for large guns on capital ships. * **Long Range** * On a planet it’s about 100 to 200 kilometers away and just out of sensor range. * In space it’s several thousand kilometers away. * Only the largest capital ships can engage at this range. * **Extreme Range** * In space, both sides still have the chance to break off and escape. ^ Band ^ Maneuver Cost (Speed 1) ^ Maneuver Cost (Speed 2-4) ^ Maneuver Cost (Speed 4-5) ^ |Engaged/Close|1 to Close; 2 to Short|1 to Close or Short|1 to Close - Medium; 2 to Long| |Short|2 to Close|1 to Close; 2 to Medium| | |Medium| |2 to Close|1 to Close| |Long| | |2 to Close|
