Federation Commander

OK, so I have been spending $$$ to round out my FC supplies and get back into SFU. I have so far purchased the following:

Klingon Border
Romulan Space
Klingon Attack
Romulan Attack
Distant Kingoms
Hydran Attack

So, with that in mind, what do all of you would be the next best purchase (or purchases) to make? I feel what I have is a very good baseline to work from, but not really sure what should be next.

I appreciate your thoughts and suggestions!

If you want a module with laminated cards, War and Peace would be top of my recommend list; that would get you started with the ISC, Andromedans and Vudar.

If you don't mind black-and-white cards, Briefing #2 fleshes out the Middle Years nicely; plus you can also get the cards in colour in pdf format on e23.

Speaking of e23, there are plenty of ePacks and other files on that site already; at the risk of sounding self-serving, I might mention the playtest pack featuring the Omega Octant...

Yeah, I'd suggest either Orion Attack (Pirates! Argh!) or War and Peace (ISC, Vudar, and Andromedans)

I'd concur, but with the proviso that I'd probably buy Tholian Attack first. Can you afford all three in one go?

Also have you got the Booster packs for the modules you already have? There are some ships in those - such as Command Cruisers and such - that're not in the main modules, only in the Boosters.

I haven't gotten any booster packs yet. I am looking at them, but have been wondering whether to buy some of them or to buy some of the other full sets (War & Peace, the "Attack" expansions, etc).

I am looking at being able to play some PBEM and live games with the new group I hooked up with at a local game store.

I spent a lot to get up to what I have now, so I have to be a little more frugal going forward. So, instead of $70 to $100 at a time, I have to keep it around $50 or less (for the time being).

The question becomes, is there more you want to try or do you want to fill out your favorite Empire(s) ---

If you want to fill out Empires then boosters the way to go for the time being -- get 4 of them for less than $50 (tax and s/h depending on where you get them) --

I personally think Attack products are the way to go. Most boosters simply have more copies of existing ships, and maybe one or two bonus ships. Attack products will contain all new ships, and more scenarios too. Better value than boosters IMO.

If you have a colour printer the ship packs on e23 are pretty good value.

SHould buy the War and Peace Booster. Dont buy the expansion because its cheaper and provides ships from all 3 new empires. Although it doesn;t have any BBS (except for ISC) it does have a Andromedan StarBase

You're thinking of the Battle Station; the Andromedan Desecrator Starbase is not in FC yet.

I reccomend Tholian Attack and War and Peace. Unless you really like orions, I think Orion attack could wait.

And get Booster 91. It's the best booster available
