Hello sorry for the lame question. We lost our rulebook for Battle Force. I've ordered another one, but in the meantime, I'm not sure of the Tholian web rules? Tholians can fire phasers out but nothing goes in if they are webbed, correct?

Tholian ships can activate their webs in the Formation Step. Iff the target is a Tholian ship which has deployed its web, all attacks on it are reduced by 50% (round fractions up, 5 damage points become 3). To mark a webbed ship, place a damage marker on the diamond-shaped "web" symbol on the card. A webbed ship can only fire phasers. The marker is removed at the start of the Formation Step of the owning player's next Player Turn. [The marker does not mean the ship is damaged. The diamond symbol cannot be marked by normal damage, and does not have to be marked to destroy the ship. Damage repair cannot, and need not, be used to remove it.] Note that Prime Teams can cancel the effect of a web (removing the marker). Any other defenses used take effect after the 50% reduction.

Is there a pdf of the rules somewhere? I'm sure I'll end up buying the set at some point but I'd like to understand it more to see if it's something I'll like. I love card games so the answer is probably yes.

I don't think so but send me an email and I'll see what I can make happen.

What is the best way to integrate cards from Captain's Logs into this game? I assume standard card sleeves plus cards printed onto light card stock?
Second query, do regular, sized for poker cards, sleeves work okay for these (bridge sized) cards?
