I'm trying to learn ASL myself. Made harder because nobody I knows plays. Had to hunt for the original Squad Leader before the Starter Kits actually made SENSE.

Its part of the reason Federation Commander is so appealing. Its an awesome game that gives me all I found interesting about SFB, but ...

Ive been reading the book myself. It seems like GURPS Lite's rules with all the extra bits one would need to play in the SF Universe. Which is good because waaay back in the day original 3rd ed GURPS had so much stuff in it I just gave up trying to read it. PD did the nice way of easing us into ...

For core spraypaint colors I tend to use Krylon Fusion or Testors Spray Enamels.

I just got Gurps Prime Directive this week. I am pretty impressed so far, even if some of the alien race art feels a little flat. A shame some of the Starfleet Command 2 character designs couldn't be bothered...

I'd like to see a section for the game here sometime soon. I have a nice canon abusing ...

Drones and Photons.. a little tactical help?

Ok. So far in our games of Federation Commander it has primarily been Kzinti (me) vs Federation (my friend).

(Note we play Fleet Scale exclusively.)

So far I have noticed that VERY few drones ever hit. If any. If the ADDs don't get em, Phaser 3s do. How do I ensure a couple hits outside of ...
