By Drew Klenotic (Tillek) on Wednesday, June 01, 2011 - 07:06 pm: Edit

Well, I've been looking to get into one. The other one seemed to have died out.

By Majead Farsi (Devil) on Wednesday, June 01, 2011 - 08:02 pm: Edit

Ashley Clifton (aka USMC_Admiral) asked me to create the topic.

By Sterling Clifton (Usmc_Admiral) on Wednesday, June 01, 2011 - 09:09 pm: Edit

No I did. My name is Sterling, Ashley's my wife.

I'm starting a new campaign and looking for players. Most if not all factions will be playable, all playable factions not picked will be NPCs in the background, there will be Andros and monsters as NPCs as well.

I have 90% of the rule sin my head already and I need to type them out. I didn't' expect this fast of a response, I wasn't going to say anything until I had it typed up, lol.

I will not be using F&E command ratings.

IF the race is official in SFB, it will be playable.

On that note, I could use some advice and input on making the galaxy.

brb in a few hours.

There have been a few other campaigns over recent years, so you could probably find plenty of info here. One is just starting up (final ship choices due this weekend), so it will be interesting to see whether there are enough players for a second campaign.

I wont be able to play a second campaign, but Im more than happy to help out with any questions you may have. You could possibly also ask the other campaign GMs whether you can check out their rules. I created my own campaign many years ago, but all my friends moved on to other things and we never got beyond the first few turns.

Send me an email if you'd like some help.

Jason: I'd like to talk to you more privately about galaxy construction.

Peter: IF its a "real" race, not a simulator race, is from this galaxy, or has historical operations in this galaxy, and has been sanctioned by ADB, as in past the play-testing phase, then you can play it.

By Troy Williams (Jungletoy) on Thursday, June 02, 2011 - 11:19 am: Edit

I'm in!

By Jason Langdon (Jaspar) on Thursday, June 02, 2011 - 04:39 pm: Edit

Sterling, email is in my profile. Feel free.

Its a bold move allowing all races. Will be interesting to see how they all interact.

By Peter Thoenen (Eol) on Thursday, June 02, 2011 - 10:55 pm: Edit

Heh will Triangulum is out (outside galaxy) as is C5 and Peladine. Are we considering LMC part of this galaxy?

By Jason Langdon (Jaspar) on Thursday, June 02, 2011 - 11:07 pm: Edit

What does LMC stand for?

By Sterling Clifton (Usmc_Admiral) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 12:11 am: Edit

Alright... I don't have the rules for Omega, Triangulum or LMC.

If you want to use them in my campaign you will need to;
A. spend time traveling to the alpha octant and copy and paste/type out and e-mail me the relevant rules for your race.
B). play in your area of the galaxy in which I'd need the rules for your whole area.

Sorry about this but i just found out I don't have those books anymore, and that's too much money to spend on an SFBOL campaign.

So that being said, if you are not wanting to do all of that, then you must play as an alpha octant race.

First come, first server. Orions aare picked already. Gorn are picked already, and Andros will be NPC/Monsterish.

Races will have bonuses.

I need to knwo the capitals of the Pavarians, Peladine, Carnivons, and Vudar..

I have all the other races set. Once I've finished my map I will post game rules.

LMC = Lesser Magellanic Cloud (spelling?) its a sub-galaxy, nebulae like thing just outside our galaxy. The Andros conquered a lot of space there as an invasion springboard.

By Jason Langdon (Jaspar) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 02:09 am: Edit

I want to say 'yes', but Im going to struggle enough as it is with EaW and finding time for those battles, plus a campaign Im running with a friend.

I could maybe be a Vice Admiral "sounding board" for anyone who wants to bounce around ideas. Very unlikely I could fight any of the battles.

By Majead Farsi (Devil) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 04:40 am: Edit

I'm in and this will be me maxed out SFB wise, but Loving it.

By Gary Plana (Garyplana) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 01:01 pm: Edit

Back in '04 I wrote up the Paravians for Module Prime, I put their Homeworld in hex 5001.

Just keep in mind that this was never blessed by the Steves.

By Peter Thoenen (Eol) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 01:17 pm: Edit

I may or may not be in ... will wait on the rules before I commit.

By Francois Lemay (Princeton) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 01:59 pm: Edit

Sterling,
Could you send me a copy of your rules please ?

I'm interested but like Pete, I want to see the rules first before I commit.

Thanks.

Cheers
Frank

By Josh Driscol (Gfb) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 05:34 pm: Edit

Likewise I would like to see the rules before I commit to anything. I have quite a bit to do already with EaW. But if I really liked the rules, I could probably make time.

By Sterling Clifton (Usmc_Admiral) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 07:55 pm: Edit

well once i get those three home worlds done I'll be able to set up my map.

But I'm getting ready to type up the rules right now I am willing to alter some of the rules if need be.

By stephen l. caswell (Artiumas) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 08:31 pm: Edit

i would like in

By John Coleman (Aligato) on Friday, June 03, 2011 - 11:06 pm: Edit

Count me in and I know one other flyer that will play.....I'll let him know.

By Sterling Clifton (Usmc_Admiral) on Saturday, June 04, 2011 - 09:06 pm: Edit

I had to go to sleep early last night form my pain killer for certain injures so i didn't' finish the rules yet.. but I'm still typing them out... If you're in.. or are interested...

call your races you'd like to play, top 5 in order... first come first serve.
