Got me either .... right now though they have big black boxes you have to attach a CC-P to. Would love to have it included already. I assume any freighters can use any pod even if inactive (for transportation) but maybe not .. not big on the whole tug / freighter / pod rules.

F-AL: Can't designate weapons on the forward "option" mounts. Ex: I can't tell the client that I have Pl-Fs in the two forward weapon mounts on a Gorn or Rom F-AL.

Thanks,
Ted

Everybody please go to the "Library" window and click on the "Update List" with the "SFB" tab being selected. This should fix the problem with refits and General ships.

Posted in the Bug Reports, although this may be the right place for it:

The Peladine cannot launch shuttles, drones or plasma. I *believe* this is because no one has done up these for the client, but I could be wrong... please fix, we use the Peladine in our campaign and "kludging" it is a pain!

Dale,
I will get right on this.

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Tuesday, October 23, 2007 - 09:38 pm: Edit

Dale,
This is now fixed.

Thanks Paul!

Thanks!!!
Ted

Ground bases not allowed to have t-bombs should have those boxes grey'd out.

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Saturday, November 24, 2007 - 08:28 pm: Edit

Romulan G-SF-E should have drop down menus to hold Plasma-K's. It has nothing ATM.

Hello,

I'm thinking of starting a campaign using the Iridani. Would it be possible to add their ships, modules, and fighters any time soon? (ie. a month or two)

Thanks

The Eneen DWs show turn mode C, and should be turn mode B

Paul: Drawing in pixels is really killing me as none of my favorite tools like them (e.g. they all antialias). Are pixels the only measurement the tool accepts or can I do 16x16 points for example

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Wednesday, January 02, 2008 - 09:57 pm: Edit

Peter,
Basically, yes. The boxes don't have to be 16x16 but those are best. Also, the main thing that the tool requires is that the lines be pixel clean. The assumption that the tool makes is the background is pure white and the lines are any other color. This is how it does its detection. Obviously, I can change the tool so that you need to position the boxes a little more. So instead of using a method of detection, you would be "drawing" and position the boxes on top of the image.

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Sunday, January 06, 2008 - 04:39 pm: Edit

The Eneen DWs have been fixed.

Iridian Galleon has been added.

The Eneen BS does not take damage on its repair boxes. Fix requested. Thanks!

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Monday, January 14, 2008 - 08:53 am: Edit

Might want to check Eneen warbase, too.

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Monday, January 14, 2008 - 10:23 am: Edit

Eneen BS says repair hit on "cargo." However, repair is also hit on hull, and I could find no rule to the contrary in C5. Might want to edit SSD. Is the the problem with damage allocation, too?

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Wednesday, January 16, 2008 - 09:46 pm: Edit

Added Federation CAV and NHA

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Wednesday, January 16, 2008 - 10:22 pm: Edit

Ted,
I have reviewed the C5 SSD book and Eneen BS & WB both state that Repair is only hit on Cargo. Since this is specific to this SSD it overrides the general rule.

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Wednesday, January 16, 2008 - 10:35 pm: Edit

Paul,

I'll ask on the official questions topic, but I think that's an oversight. I've looked at the C5 rules, and and there's nothing about overriding the general SFB rule regarding repair hits - and C5 is generally good about addressing when they do override normal SFB rules. Let's see what ADB says.

By Ted Fay (Catwhoeatsphoto) on Thursday, January 17, 2008 - 03:24 pm: Edit

Paul, from SPP on the SFB questions topic:


Quote:

Ted Fay:

It is supposed to be the same, but probably was copied and pasted from an older SSD. Repair works in Magellanic exactly as it does in Alpha and Omega and in Module E2 for purposes of damage. Any hit in Annex #7E that can be resolved on Repair can be resolved on Repair, and in some cases must be. In this latter, note that "Excess Damage" can be resolved on repair (but I do not think a single SSD notes), and MUST be resolved on repair if repair is available before the last "excess damage" hit (the one that blows the ship or base up) can be scored. So Hull, Cargo, and Excess Damage can all be scored on Repair, and Excess Damage must be scored on repair (or cargo, or mine racks) if such are available before the ship or base can blow up.


By Dale McKee (Brigman) on Friday, January 18, 2008 - 02:41 am: Edit

I'd like to request the Juggernaut CA and CL from CL #35 be added to the library - we've got a campaign battle with the JUG-CL coming up!

By Paul Franz (Andromedan) on Friday, January 18, 2008 - 03:03 pm: Edit

Dale,
How soon do you need it?

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Friday, January 18, 2008 - 03:21 pm: Edit

What can I do to help?
