    Fighter trade: EA Starfuries for Shadow fighters

    Hi. I have 52 unpainted, unclipped, but out of the package ACTA EA Star Furies with 8 bases which I would like to trade for at least 36 ACTA-style Shadow fighters and 6 bases. No B5 Wars or Fleet Action fighters, please.

    A Perfect Tie

    Minbari versus Shadows. It's the last turn, with one damaged Tigara versus one damaged Hunter. The Tigara tries to manuever for distance, but the Hunter races up from behind, closing up to reduce the effects of Stealth. He fires. 4 regular hits and 5 critical hits wipe out the Tigara...

    2x, 3x, critical hit damage?

    When you inflict a critical hit with a weapon that does double or triple damage, and the critical hit calls for crew or ship damage, is the damage from the critical hit table doubled or tripled?

    Shadow hyperspace withdrawl

    Does a Shadow ship leaving the table into hyperspace count as a withdrawl from battle, or can it come back some turns later? Can it repair itself in hyperspace?

    Shadow hyperspace entry

    How does everyone feel about allowing Shadows to start a battle in hyperspace, and come in anywhere or any time they want?

    One flight or six fighters???

    This is a pretty appalling oversight -- nowhere in any of the books or supplements can I find a sentence which explicitly states whether a flight of fighters makes six attacks (one per fighter), or just one! Which is it? Also, I cannot find a sentence anywhere that says that an entire flight...

    Pin the tail on the Primus

    Could someone give me advice on how to attach the "manta ray" tail piece to the rear of the Centauri Primus? The main body of the ship has a nice hole cast into the rear, between the engine thrusters, but the tail piece is perfectly smooth and flat, with nothing to inset into the hole on the...

    Ship Identification Etiquette

    When you place a model of a ship on the table and that model could represent any of several variants (e.g., Vorchan, Vorchat, Vorchar, Demos), do you tell your opponent exactly what it is, or does he not get to find out until you empty your missle rack at him?

    Stopping in space

    Can a vessel start the game stopped? Once stopped, can a vessel remain stopped? A strict interpretation of the rules would say that stopping is only possible if you perform an All Stop, and that if you want to stay stopped, you must issue an All Stop every turn, which would prevent you from...

    2nd Edition counters

    Sorry. It was 90 x 130 pixels and only 4 MB, so I thought it would be OK. Let me try something else. cheirisophus

    2nd Edition counters

    I realize that it may be too late to change the counters for the second edition of the rules, and there may not be any other reason to change them, but I would like to ask for a change in the counter lettering. The current two color (red outlined in white) letter is very, very difficult to...

    Nodules on Minbari fins

    I am in the process of assembling Minbari ships for the first time and I am discovering small spherical nodules on the edges of each of the small "side fins" on the larger ships. These do not show up in any pictures, but they occur on all of these fins on multiple models. Is this a casting...
