Since my only experience with "Carrier based" based starships is with the F & E Rules. How would Carriers in Fed Com change the way the game is played? I would think that it would enchance the game play, if some what complicate it further.

I don't know how Carrier Launches work in SFB. But in F&E ...

How so Steve? In your opinion, what does each system do better than what the other system(s) do? I am not asking you to pick a side or choose a favorite. I would just like to know what the pros and cons of the respective RPG systems are.

Just curious, how did you come up with all 134 entries for F&E hex 0203?

Another question, are all of the entries equally likely in any given F & E hex(es)?

And lastly, its seems that you were generating your F & E Hex 0203 results randomly, are there any entries on the table that you were ...

Yeah, that is the beauty about using the GURPS system. They do love thier
Hexes within Hexes system. It is cool at times and a pain at other times.

It is my belief that the warp engines must produce thier own Anti-Matter.
If it is to be assumed that one has to introduce anti-matter into the warp engines, then that anti-matter would become a highly controlled substance. I would put that on par with Nuclear Weapons grade materials of today. Which ...

I would recommend taking each section independently as you work your way through the rules. Oh by the way, I do recognize that this thread is over 2 years old since the

I have played numerous games of Twilight Imperium and I can safely say its more
Like a regular boardgame than Hardcore Wargame sim. That is what F&E is, a hard-
Core wargame sim.

It takes roughly 4 to 6 hours to play a game of TI. F&E Turns can take hours each.
