Well Daniel I certainly can't argue with that.

Sigh. I am an addict with at least 200 miniatures. Almost every fleet from star fleet battles. Most of the ships from noble armada. Some Babylon 5 ships. Most every micro machine space ship ever made. Then some oddballs. Then the game rules. Star fleet battles, full thrust, battlefleet gothic...

Oh you are quite right, there is nothing wrong with variety in war gaming. I'm just biased to ship to ship space combat.

I guess I just wanted ACTA to get a new lease on life and a traveler version seemed the most promising. Though given the relative obscurity of the fading suns in sci fi, a new version could be anything. That assumes there will be a new version.

Thank you, I was hoping for a ACTA type game unfortunately.

So I saw on the upcoming release page that there is going to be a Traveler miniature game. Any hints or preview? Any idea what kind of format there will be? Is this Traveler ACTA? What is the anticipated release date?

Apep, any games in particular? Aside from ACTA I like full thrust and Starmada nova. I'm checking out the rules to pax stellarum, but haven't played a game yet.

Apep, I guess living in the USA I never realized that getting star fleet stuff would be hard. I've bought products from mongoose and ground zero games, as well as ADB. I was exited when I found out they were taking over start fleet:ACTA. I would like to say that I would not by another ACTA from...

Yeah, but checking out their forums it's quieter than the call to arms forum here. I keep waiting for mongoose to come out with a new version of ACTA, but I'm starting to have doubts. Traveler would be the obvious choice, but Babylon 5 and noble armada were both pretty obscure backgrounds...

I'm curious how that project was going to turn out since I have both the old holistic rules as well as the ACTA one. Since it's April I'm guessing things went south since back in the summer the forum there implied they were close to being done.

Best wishes for you and Steve.

I would be curious to see what you had come up with. I was putting together my own thoughts/ house rules/ homebrew ship stats. I really enjoy the game. Right now my 12 year old and I play.

Thank you all. While it does sound interesting, I think I'll give Traveller a pass. I do appreciate the responses.

hey phavoc, or really anyone. Could you give me an idea of what the ship to ship combat is like? I appreciate.

Thank you. Like I said, I have heard of the game, but realy nothing else about it. I've looked through a couple of the Traveller threads, but most are over 100 posts, at least one has over 1100, so I which is why I would just rather get it straight in one thread. I guess I'm torn on jumping in...
