Great War #1

Post by Aabh »

This may totally be inappropriate, I'm cool if moderators want to move/remove this to somewhere else! :)

The first piece in the "Great War" series, chronicling the travels of our local campaign. This is the Arvada (I made it up so it can be a hero ship), who is stuck at port with her captain looking on. The third engine on the NCA is bad (They made her too quickly), so she (And her crew) are waylaid for the moment. However, there is a solution on the way (The results of the last campaign game).

Or at least that's the theory.

The characters are randomly generated and every ship in the campaign is "Crewed" (Not completely, but the command crew has been fleshed out). We added some small rules about percentage chance of a ships crew being hurt or killed when bridge/Aux/Emergency bridges are hit. It's something I've wanted to do since we played SFB in the 80s :D It means these characters could be wounded or even die in any given conflict.

I will post the results in the campaign section as they come in. That may be a while, so before I forget, I wanted to post this here :)

Sorry, I'm long winded... :)

I am good with it. Post away! I, too, look forward to seeing more pictures, particularly if they match the quality of this one!

Thanks guys (I was a little worried... there doesn't seem to be a "fan art" section, as long as no one minds! :D). I'm deeply honored, I always find my art to be sort of bland and not very interesting, I always appreciate the comments!

I'm moving to a new place (Not far from my old place) and so I'm a little disconnected this week, but next week I'll post the first installment of this story. I have no idea when the SECOND one will be (It depends on when I can get our FC team together :D), but I can certainly get the first one posted here soon :D

Woah, I moved! (Which means I was completely displaced :D). I totally missed all of the responses here. Sorry about that! And thank you!

Our team is still hammering out a regular play time, so I don't have much of a story ready yet, but it will start soon! :)
