All the pulses are added togther into a single volley, per shield of course.

So If you fire at range 9 and roll a 10 you have hit with 3 pulses (1 over the to hit number means you lose one pulse). ...

I'm a recent Fed Com purchaser and I got my friends to by into it. We played SFB in the early 90's, and we've forgotten most of what we learned.

A quick question, does anybody know what fleet boxes and squadrons I'd need to get all the figurines required for the SSD's included in Klingon border and Klingon attack? I haven't decided what race I ...
