Asteroid Maps

JonPerry · Post by **JonPerry** » Thu Jan 20, 2011 4:40 pm

For the scenarios that call for folks to use the "Asteroid Map" (which I don't have, because whatever FC products have them, I don't have), what are these like?

What I mean is, I have the Asteroid Belt map and the Asteroid Field map (I believe this is what they were called) from SFB in the 1/2" hexes.

On the Asteroid Field map, the asteroid hexes are mostly large clumps of asteroids thrown all over the map. Is that what the FC asteroid maps look like, or are they a larger number of smaller clumps or even mostly just individual asteroid hexes?

Hope the question makes sense.

Our you can do what scoutdad does and use the lava rocks from the grill and put them on your hex map. And if your players ask about the strange aroma, tell them they are traversing the hamburger expanse.

Thanks, Steve. That doesn't look too dissimilar from the SFB Asteroid Map that I already have.

Wanted to make sure before we started doing those two linked scenarios from the Tholian expansion, with the Klinks trying to steal the web generator.

Umm... actually, that's the smell of BBq'ed Hydrans.

Those were always our favorites as well. that's one of the main reasons I worked to convert them to Fed Comm. They don't play out quite the same in Fed Comm as in SFB, but they are still a blast.
