    Book listed as available! YES!!!

    After handing a crushing defeat to the Red Hordes with my German Panzerkompanie at our local FLGS this afternoon, I did a victory lap through the store and found this on the shelf. Despite the rebuke that I knew I would receive from the High Command when I got home, I purchased it immediately...

    ACTA counters

    Seriously, counters that are complete and up-to-date for ACTA should be a no brainer now that minis are no longer available. Updated VaS (and OOB) would be icing on the proverbial cake.

    Proof of intelligent design in ACTA????

    That would of course depend on what your definition of "is" is. :roll:

    Starship Power System Defective?

    Oh, while I may not be a gearhead of high caliber, I most certainly am a gearhead. I am certain that there will be an ACTA version, as you said, even if it is only an S&P version. My reservations concern the current state of the power systems in the design which change the core fundamentals of...

    Starship Power System Defective?

    Well said. One of the first things that popped into my head when the original announcement that Mongoose was doing Traveller was "Awesome, and it will be so easy to convert traveller ship combat to an A Call to Arms style game!" However, this current system leaves me cold. While it may serve...

    Starship Power System Defective?

    My basic question is, does this change to starship operation improve Traveller? And does it make it more fun? So far, based on my reading of the test rules and following the discussions here and elsewhere, the answer to both thus far is no. Reinventing the wheel by substituting squares or...

    When? When??!!

    It is only because of the pending Dark Heresy release that I am even beginning to comtemplate doing the same thing, thus ending both my son's and my own six years of exile as well. Are BF:E stuff has been boxed up and is in storage, where it has been since October.

    Hadn't worked my way up there yet. :D Thanks for doing Yaskodray's work there, EDG.

    But a bump to TL-G for a total of 12.

    More impressed that there are nine TL-G worlds.

    Conan RPG for E-Tools???

    The folks at Lone Wolf Development who do the Army Builder program have also created Hero Lab, which currently supports D20 and has a WoD trial component, are also slated to support MGP's RuneQuest. I'm sure that if enough support can be raised, that MGP and the maker's of Hero Lab can fix us...

    S&P 48 LAV ???

    Faced with the need to have my wounded "6" hauled out of the fire, I'd gladly take someone willing to at least try, regardless of whether their reproductive organs are on the inside or out. Regards, Larry

    Airborne(Parachute) deployment rules?

    Rules-wise, I'd pull an idea from Avalon Hill's old, original Starship Troopers wargame. It would basically work like this: 1) Randomly determine which direction the wind is blowing (or use the direction designated by the scenario). 2) Line your infantry unit up in a straight line, each 1 inch...

    Wave 3 - anyone found them in stores yet?

    My son just called from the Game Parlor in Chantilly. They have two Tunguska's, 2 SAS Squads and 2 PLA Command Squads/FAV. No sign of any Force Recon. Regards, Larry

    Anyone else disappointed in the full Rulebook?

    The pendulum swings both ways. I can't tell you the number of times he's literally shellacked me in 40k, ACTA and most especially SST (damned dirty bugs). I take my victories whenever and whereever I can get them. That said, I'm incredibly proud of him. He is gracious both in victory and...
