Was wondering if anybody had this and how it is, especially what Federation ships are in it. The SFB website doesn't have much detail in the description. Thanks. |

I've got it... I haven't had a chance to use any of the ships in it yet (other than a bit of playtesting early on... The NAX is a really fun ship to fly )
The Fed ships are:
DGX - Advanced Destroyer
CSX - Advanced Technology Strike Cruiser
GVX - Advanced Medium Carrier
DWX - Advanced Technology War Destroyer
NAX - Advanced Technology New Heavy Cruiser
NASX- Advanced Technology New Heavy Scout Cruiser
HVX - Advanced Technology Heavy Fighter Carrier
HWX - Advanced Technology Heavy War Destroyer _________________ Commander, Battlegroup Murfreesboro

Thanks guys. I was kinda leery of it not having much to it since it's X1R and not X2. Sounds really good now though. |

WOW! That is some neat stuff! I don't get much SFB material anymore, but I might make an exception here. From the looks of it, this X1R looks more interesting then a hypothetical X2 module that I heard about.
I'm suprised to see Carriers in PF Tenders in it too. Lots of SFB players kept insisting to me that Fighters and Carriers were clearly obsolete during the X ship eras, so it would be interesting how the history explained why they were still used. Could this bring the possibility of X-Fighters in SFB?!?! |

Magnum, IIRC the Hydrans were the only ones to develop X-fighters, they invented the Stinger-X. _________________ "Captain" Terry O'Carroll, fourteen papers published including six best of issue

The basic idea was that while fighters and PFs were mostly outdated compared to the X-ships, they were still cheap and economically viable for use against the enemy. The X-ships gave them faster transport and could back them up. Plus, a number of those were ships with scout channels which would be very useful later when they were hunting Andros. _________________ NOLI UMQUAM VIM TURBARUM STULTORUM DEPRETIARE.

Having bought and read X1R it is my impression and opinion, note that I said mine, that Scout Carriers were include for two and a weak third roles:
1) Used as picket Ships to detect and slow down hostile raiders.
2) RTN Hunting cause they had the Scout Channles to find the Nodes and then the Heavy Fighters to provide a serious crunch aginst Andros. Who did not develope X Tech.
3) I suppose one could still assign them to escort convoys in areas you are expecting trouble.
I know some people say they should be in mixed squadrons as a Scout but, I personally would just about never put them in a X Squadron. _________________ -Dal

I'm an SFB nut, and will grab up just about anything SFB, but I have to say, X1R is one of the better SFB modules I've seen in recent years. Lots of unique stuff.
If you like the idea of X-ships, and always wanted to see more, this is the product for you. _________________ Check out my website at: http://www.jgray-sfb.com/
