Federation Commander

I agree about the short weapon ranges and traffic jam.

I think an SFB version of Talon would work best with 8 impulses, with weapons ranges out optimally at 4 hexes, with a chance to do slight dama ...

Who are these imbeciles posting negative reviews? The PDFs and Shapeways are the best things that have happened in my opinion. I remember when I was a young boy (well over 30 years ago) asking my mom ...

They are 2-turn arming weapons. Snip at a range where they are not as effective and close with him when they are re-arming. If he starts splitting them up and firing them half on each turn then now he ...

I'm kind of skeptical about that. These are niche products on a niche topic in niche hobby. The people who are going to buy the PDF of the Module R1 SSD book are not likely going to be new customers, ...

When I did my research into trying this game, many online reviewers made the comparison of this game to SFB. That was what made me finally track it down. This game is literally the micro scale/ ...

SVC,

I play the way you do too, for the last 30 years. That way doesn't work very well with gamers today or for me do to time constraints. Talon (and an SFB version) is a game my wife and kids will ...

I just picked up Talon recently and it is fantastic. Having played SFB, Fed Com and Starmada, I feel Talon comes much closer to capturing the core mechanics of the game. The designer has played SFB an ...

Ooohh, fleet scale Fed CAs?. "There are only two sprues like her in the fleet".

Very nice!

I use dish soap and a toothbrush to scrub off that film, works well enough.
