PDF Ship Cards Request

Post by Cat Who Sleeps With Dogs »

As I play more and more, I am seeing the potential benefit of PDF ship cards rather than pre-printed ones.

I play with my kids and their friends, and with the printed PDFs, I don't have to worry about damage to a ship card, as I can just print another. I also plan to run some convention games, and the PDFs will be a benefit for the same reason.

The PDFs also allow be to build a nice little library of only the ship cards I have miniatures for, so we can be sure we will be okay with miniature availability.

On to my request! I would really like to see the PDF ship card line expanded to include General Units. I enjoy playing and running scenarios, and bases and freighters are an essential part of that for me. For the PDF line to be complete and distinct (I mean able to play by just buying PDFs aside from maps and counters), these General Units are really needed. Monsters would be great as well.

If they are available somewhere and I am missing them, please let me know! :D I seem to remember seeing a PDF for the freighters somewhere....

Thanks!

Not the general unit type stuff. At least not that I can find.

Go to Commanders Circle. Find the latest Master Ship Chart. Go to the General Units section of the Master Ship Chart. Look for the Comm Rev and Comm Large columns. These two columns will show you in which Communique each unit can be found. Not all General units have appeared in Communique, but several have. Download the Communique and print away!

Note that most of these will be grayscale rather than color, but they work just as well, and are cheaper to print.

(If I remember I'll post a direct link to the Master Ship Chart.)
