Well, thanks to the set up, and placement, the Nova was basically crossing the 't' of both sides--and when the IAA basically rolled up the shadows flank, they sort of did the manuevering for the Nova. The Twin linked worked so much better against them than the Hyperiosn beam. so many hits...

hmm I asked, but supposedly the person checking the book said they couldn't. I'll verify from now on.

the Battle Lasers were providing an average 3 -4 hits--but dodge negated most of that, or when trying for the Shadow vessels, I could never beat the stealth. I was going for a kill, plus his speed and the 3 way battlefield made it get close quick. Still, they mopped up every fighter that...

Well it turned into a 3 person game, the fourth didnt show. Shadows and ISA. the workhorse of the fleet was the Nova. As the ISA went speedy to get around the shadows, I managed to stick it right inthe middle of everyone, and it went to town. The Hyperions were window dressing. Everythign out...

well, I could be facing one of three opponents. One is using raiders, another..probably shadows, then there is a liley narn. If its the Raiders or Narn, I'll go with the T-Bolts then.

Ok, just a handful of 1e games, going for my first full scale 2e ACTA battle. After picking up a little EA fleet (the box set, reinforcements, and a Warlock...) I am going to see if I know how to handle them. We're doing a raid battle, nothing fancy, just a one shot to the death type game, as...

Why yes it is. Just a lurker of the newsgroups now, but I'm still alive and kicking, gaming wise.

I can attest to the increased demand from 2E. After initially buying the first edition, some hesitations made me and a friend sort of go on hiatus,. We heard about 2E, and gambled on the books, based on changes and improvements we'd heard about. (The work on Stealth, and mitigating jump point...

How many of you make rules to limit, or forbid jump point bombs? It's one of the bigger turn offs I have--I'm not interested in playing a gamne where it occurs, and I was wondering how many felt the same way.

After trying for a year to get ACTA to be played, a friend and I are pretty much on the verge of giving up and auctioning off what we own, or waiting to second editon. How far off is this fabled new ediiton, and will it bring everythign together into one base product that exists now? Trying...
