We just treat this and similar decisions as a bidding war.

"Anyone want to fire?"

"I'll fire my photons."

"Well then I'll fire my disruptors."

"Ok, I'll ...

I think it's common sense. No-one is going to force BoM down the throats of the FC players; I'm sure nobody wants to. But for those who fancy using the extra detail, there is the standard ruleset of ...

Mike,

I like the WoW card idea and have considered it for game using Star Wars mini space fighters. But the number of cards required for squadron vs squadron might be a bit much.

How about a no ...

Now that is cool ! How did you keep your copy looking so new?

I foolishly sold my copy MANY years ago when I sold off most of my board game collection (made sense at the time as I was getting i ...

Nope, there's an older one! Very Happy

As for options, no doubt that some players like more options. And more options. And then a few more. With just a couple more for variety.

For those of us who started with Task Force game's SFB that's really our reference point.

I've actually tightened up some impulses so there were not sub-pulses either. Particularly when everyone gets separated by a decent bit of space and no one is counting on each hex. Anything to speed ...

eliminated fractional energy

So phaser-3s now cost you one full point of power to fire? And accelerating or decelerating costs you a full point of power even if the movement cost of your ship ...

We're FC heretics and have made a number of mods to make the game play faster and cleaner. We felt there were way too many artifacts from SFB that slowed things down without significant benefit. The ...

In fleet scale a Fed Battle Frigate could inflict about 40 points of damage in an Alpha Strike (excluding its Drone which could do another 12). That's enough to drop the front shield and inflict 22+ p ...

Doesn't the SFU timeline mention something about Klingons being descended from something like a "horse people"? I've imagined them as coming from something like Cossacks or Parthians in whi ...
