The Omega Master Rulebook is new on our storefront: http://store.starfleetstore.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=S&Product_Code=5670&Category_Code=SOM

Young Warrior! You think you know Star Fleet Battles, with all of its tactical twists and turns. But you do not! To truly understand the game, you must understand all of the game, including the ships, empires, history, weapons,and tactics of the wild and unpredictable Omega Octant! Only then can you truly know Star Fleet Battles.

And to truly know the Omega Octant, you need this rulebook, which includes:

Every rule, chart, scenario, and ship description from all five Omega Modules.
PLUS an extensive Omega tactics section.
PLUS an updated Sequence of Play listing, including the entire Alpha Octant,the Simulators, and the Magellanic Cloud.
PLUS completely updated Annexes and new Master Ship, PF, and Fighter Charts.
PLUS all ship descriptions, rules, weapons, and scenarios for the Omega Octant that were published in Captain's Log.
PLUS the "lost" history section originally written for Module Omega Four.
PLUS each carrier as needed has an updated Escorts and Fighters Table.

This product is an updated rulebook for the five Omega Octant Modules of STAR FLEET BATTLES. You must have SFB Basic Set and the SSD books and counters from the Omega modules to use this material. Some material will also require Advanced Missions and other modules.

Enjoy!

Steven Petrick's latest project is now available through our storefront if you haven't already made arrangements to get it through your local game store.

http://store.starfleetstore.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=S&Product_Code=5622&Category_Code=01

Newly updated for 2012, Module T-2012 is the replacement for Module T-2000 first released in 2000. The new version has an 86-page rulebook that also has information for conducting a tournament for any games currently in the Star Fleet Universe, including Star Fleet Battles, Federation Commander, Federation & Empire, Star Fleet Battle Force, A Call To Arms: Star Fleet, and Starmada. It also has a 28-page SSD book including the 18 authorized and 10 experimental tournament ship SSDs, including the Borak and Peladine tournament ships.

This will ship next week (mid-week) to people who order it through us.

Steven Petrick has been busy! The rulebook for Advanced Missions has now been updated. You can find it here: http://store.starfleetstore.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=S&Product_Code=5502-2&Category_Code=SFB_RB

It will be a bit longer before Petrick finishes the SSDs, but we wanted you to be able to get the new rules if you needed them.

Klingon Master Starship Book Now Available

"Cadet, there's a Klingon ship approaching. What is it?"

"Sir, it is a D7 battlecruiser. Arming phasers on your command!"

"Cadet, that is the
Overlord, a D7N diplomatic cruiser. Diplomats take a dim view of having phasers pointed at them or their ships. After this simulation is over, you will return to your quarters and review the Klingon Master Starship Book. Dismissed!"

The third volume in the long-anticipated Master Starship Book series is now available. It includes every Klingon ship in Star Fleet Battles, including X-ships, Y-ships, and R1 units that are specific to the Klingon Empire. Every ship is illustrated. All updates, corrections, and errata have been added. The ships are in order (regardless of the product they came from) with the enhanced format listing detailed information in a consistent manner.

This book contains the descriptions of the ships, but no SSDs.

Want it as a PDF? You have several choices.

Star Fleet Battles: Module C1 - New Worlds I (2015) Now Available

Lyrans and Hydrans and WYNs, oh my! New enemies, new allies, and new challenges for Star Fleet Battles. All newly revised for 2015! (Countersheets were revised in 2007.)

Explore these new empires, fly their ships, and conquer new enemies in the scenarios that are included!

Lyrans are allied with the Klingons and are mortal enemies of the Kzintis. These Lynx-humanoids developed the powerful expanding sphere generator. Their catamaran hulls are easily converted into larger trimaran warships.

Hydrans are methane breathers who border the Lyrans and Klingons. Once conquered by both empires, they fought their way to freedom and now threaten those who once defeated them. They fight with deadly fusion beams or hellbores (command ships have both!). They are also known for their lethal Stinger fighters.

WYNs are a vibrant society built by Kzinti and Lyran refugees, supported by Orion Pirates. They are surrounded by dense radiation fields that allow their ragtag fleet to have a fighting chance against larger ships that have been damaged by that radiation.

The 54-page rulebook includes information about the weapons (fusion beams, hellbore cannons, expanding sphere generators) and WYN Radiation Zone, as well as the background information on the ships. It has four scenarios and one campaign. Annexes and the Master Ship Chart for the ships are also included.

The 65-page SSD book has 18 Hydran ships along with tug pallets and fighter squadrons, 15 Lyran ships along with tug pallets, and 16 WYN ships. There are also generic units that have been specialized for some of the empires, so you will find fighter squadrons for Lyrans and WYNs, Q-ships for the Lyrans and Hydrans, and bases and defense satellites for the Hydrans. You will also find small and large fusion-armed freighters. It is available in B&W and as an ebook only in color.

You must have the Star Fleet Battles Basic Set (or the Master Rulebook) to use this material. Most of the material will also require Advanced Missions. Also useful are Modules J, K, M, R2, and R3.

You can get SFB Module C1 from the following sources:

I spent a shameful amount of time trying to find any information of what has been updated with Module C1, but could not find anything. Is there anyplace that discusses this?

Romulan Master Starship Book Now Available

"Cadet, identify that Romulan ship which just uncloaked off our front shield!"

"Sir, that is a King Condor battleship. My copy of the Romulan Master Starship Book notes that it is conjectural. Should we try to escape to warn the Federation that it is not conjectural?"

"Well done, Cadet! Were this not a simulation, we would indeed do exactly that. However, since this is a simulation, let's see if we can still carry out our mission."


The fourth volume in the long-anticipated Master Starship Book series is now available. It includes every Romulan ship in Star Fleet Battles, including X-ships, Y-ships, and R1 units that are specific to the Romulan Star Empire. Romulans are especially challenging because of the history of the various great houses insisting on a particular design, the various stages of early versions of what would become the cloaking device, and the addition to their fleet of converted Klingon ships.

Every ship is illustrated. All updates, corrections, and errata have been added. The ships are in order (regardless of the product they came from) with the enhanced format listing detailed information in a consistent manner.

This book contains the descriptions of the ships, but no SSDs.

Want it as a PDF? You have several choices.

Lyran Master Starship Book Now Available in PDF

"Cadets, how did the Lyrans produce their Lion dreadnought? Anyone beside Cadet Granger? Yes, Cadet Granger."

"Sir, it involved cutting a Tiger-class heavy cruiser in half and installing a new center section."

"As usual, Cadet Granger is correct. The rest of you, study your Lyran Master Starship Book. It isn't a paperweight, you know."


The fifth volume in the long-anticipated Master Starship Book series is now available. It includes every Lyran ship in Star Fleet Battles, including X-ships, Y-ships, and R1 units that are specific to the Lyran Star Empire. Lyrans are interesting because some ships were assigned to particular duchies. (This book does not focus on ships from the Lyran Democratic Republic; those will be in their own book.)

Every ship is illustrated. All updates, corrections, and errata have been added. The ships are in order (regardless of the product they came from) with the enhanced format listing detailed information in a consistent manner.

This book contains the descriptions of the ships, but no SSDs.

This is available as a PDF from these sites:

Warehouse 23: http://www.warehouse23.com/products/ADB5441

DriveThru RPG: www.drivethrurpg.com/product/209227/

Wargame Vault: http://www.wargamevault.com/product/209227/

We'll release it in print most likely in May.

Lyran Democratic Republic Master Starship Book Now Available

"Sir! Lyran ship approaching!"

"Load photon torpedoes. Fire all phasers!"

"End simulation. Congratulations, cadets. You just started a war with the Lyran Democratic Republic, a neutral power. Go study your LDR Master Starship Book. Quiz tomorrow. Dismissed!"

The sixth volume in the long-anticipated Master Starship Book series is now available. It includes every LDR ship in Star Fleet Battles, including X-ships and general units that are specific to the Lyran Democratic Republic. The LDR has very specific information because it was such a small empire. There are no Y-ships as the LDR didn't exist in that timeframe. (This book does not focus on ships from the Lyran Star Empire; those are in their own book.)

Every ship is illustrated. All updates, corrections, and errata have been added. The ships are in order (regardless of the product they came from) with the enhanced format listing detailed information in a consistent manner.

Star Fleet Battles: Module C3 -- New Worlds III Available from Multiple Sources

Battle for Two Galaxies!

Meet the Seltorians and Lyran Democratic Republic in this newly revised (2017) module. (The counters remain the same.) The Andromedans and WYNs get even more ships, too!

The Seltorian Tribunal arrived from the Tholian Home Galaxy, ready to settle the score with their former masters who had fled to our galaxy. The Seltorians have 12 ships armed with particle cannons, web breakers, and shield crackers. Two new Tholian ships are introduced for battles in the Tholian Home Galaxy.

The Lyran Democratic Republic was once a province in the Lyran Star Empire. Now it is independent and its ships carry Gatling phasers along with other special features.

The Andromedans await the galaxy's puny assault forces as the Galactic Powers try to throw them out of the galaxy! Face their battle station, base station, ground bases, auxiliary sled ship, Missionary carrier, Exploiter heavy cruiser, Queen Snake cargo ship, PA mine, trans-captor, and temporal elevator.

The Usurper returns to reclaim his throne with the WYN Cluster's Barracuda, Mako, Orca, and Great White Shark warships.

The rulebook provides additional rules, ship descriptions, and scenarios for use in Star Fleet Battles. Matching ships are in the SSD books. You must have the SFB Basic Set in order to utilize this material. Most of the ships require the Advanced Missions set as well as Modules C1, C2, J, K, M, and X1, or the SFB Master Rulebook.
