Federation Commander

Well, we have another pbem game going.
This has mojo jojo's ISC forces (CS, CS, CL, CL) facing off against Terry's extra-galatic invaders (INT, COB, COB)

Terry's Andros will start within 3 hexes of 0101
while
Gary's ISC will start within 3 hexes of 4230.

EAs and SitReps to come.

Ooohhh, this should be a good fight. *grabs popcorn to sit and watch*

Terry's alternate fleet 9in case Gary chose not to face Andros) was the same ISC fleet he used in FC0001. An ISC civil war would have been interesting... but I'd have hated trying to remember which ISC counter went with which fleet...

The CS Charity, CS Mercy, and CL Compassion will attempt to set the misguided on the path to enlightenment.

Love the names. Incidentally, is it three ships (one CL) or four ships (two CLs)?

3 ships at fleet scale. Both fleets are exactly 225 pts.

So how much damage can two PPDs put out at Range 10, again?
[counts on whatever it is Andromedans use for fingers]
Uh oh.

Alfter an extened delay brought about by first an intense work schedule on my part, then a crashed comuter on the player part, followed by more 70+ hour work weeks - we're back at it:

Turn 2, Impulse 4 has been completed and the the move orders for 2.5 through 2.8 have been submitted.
Here's where the forces are currently located:

Impulse 5:
Range from INT to ISC forces: 7 hexes.

All three ISC units have directed an Alpha Strike at the INT's weapon suite...
More to come...

Hold on a tick, can PPDs use Directed Targeting?

Offensive Fire for FC0004 has been completed.
Here's wher they're at:
