Starbase Question

Post by Krellex »

Ok, so I am working on some ship card definitions for FCOL, and I currently have the starbase in hand from Battleships Attack. Adjacent to the Weapon 3 boxes are yellowish green boxes with the letter "H" in them. What are these?

Thanks

Dunno, haven't got BA yet. That they are yellowish green argues for them being Hydran Stingers, however. The letter H also argues for this interpretation. Presumably hte Hydran version of hte Starbase has some Stingers aboard.

The boxes marked "H" are Stingers on a Hydrian Starbase. I can't remember for sure if the are Shuttle Bays for everyone else or just voids.

Hmmm, anyone know if these are voids for the other empires?

Also, anyone have the weapons table for each empire? (i.e. what goes in W1 slots, W2, etc, etc?)

I seem to have misplaced my card from Battleships Attack, but isn't that written on the card? It is on all the other "generic" bases, freighters, Q-ships, etc.

There is no information in the BA rulebook either.

The boxes with the 'H' are Stinger fighter boxes for the Hydrans, and void for anyone else. The adjacent weapon boxes are Stingers, too. That means the Hydran starbase has 12 Stingers total.

Optimus,
When I get the cards, they just have the ships and the boxes, no charts, descriptions, move costs, turn mode etc.

Mike,
Thank you.
