    Sideslip

    Yeah, but I was thinking that the sideslip would be the whole movement. You are limited to only the sideslip and only up to half of your movement.

    Boresight vs Fwd arc idea

    I actually don't have a problem with boresight, either. There was talk of changing it, so I thought I'd pitch in. If you have intiative sinks in place boresight really isn't all that bad. And luckily, I don't play with douche bags, as it was put.

    Boresight vs Fwd arc idea

    How about a line the width of mini instead of an arc. A 60 degree still covers a lot of ground that probably would happen with a forward mounted weapon, but a line the width of the miniature, that can easily be a mounted weapon and is much easier to line up than a point-to-point line. My...

    Sideslip

    All I'm saying is that it is a really basic kind of maneuver and may bear playtesting. The times I'm on don't normally line up with the majority of the players, so I actually play by myself most of the time. It's kinda like playing chess by yourself I suppose. Trying to outtink yourself all...

    Sideslip

    The way I see it is that if you fire all of your maneuvering thrusters on one side while you are moving forward that is a sideslip. You don't change facing, so it is not SM. Also it would allow your larger ships a little leeway in their movement. Small corrections can mean a lot when you have...

    Sideslip

    I was wondering if there were any rules for a sideslip? Any ship, even the larger, less manueverable ones should be able to make a side slip. Basically a half speed movement at up to a 45 degree angle where the facing of the ship doesn't change.

    Informal Petition: Please sign if you agree....

    I actually got the Crusade Era Fleet for Xmas and found it wasn't very good. All of the 1 piece ships turned out fine. The others not so much. My Marathon has a hole in the engines. I plan to make it look like it took a hit there so I don't have to send it back in, but it shouldn't be that...

    Casting quality - time for new moulds?

    Some of the newer companies are going to a computer generated sculpt. The lines are much cleaner and the models that come out are far better. The best thing is that a majority of the vessels in ACTA come from the Babylon 5 TV show, which there already exists computer models that are usable in...

    Late Night B5

    Hey all! I'm looking for people who can play B5 on Vassal at about 2:20am US Central. That's about 8:20 GMT (I think). I found out today that most people that play Vassal are from England, which leaves them going to be around 7 O'clock would be my guess. Post if you want to play. Thanx

    Vassal ACTA v7.2 and 7.3 link too

    You said that you would like to know if there are more counters that need to be changed? Unfortunately the Abbai Alanti OBS still have the Narn OBS counter. I don't know if there are any more but that is one that I found.
