    Orions are nasty.

    Try Orions against Kzinti or a drone heavy fleet, not so powerful then.

    Shield crits

    Exactly the same as we do (you do need a lot of die though)

    Balance Changes

    If the removal of accurate helped Romulan's, it will help the Gorn (as they have more Plasma per ship). Might backfire a bit in defence though, as their phaser suites don't have that many weapons. At least you won't be getting phaser fire as well as plasma from the pointed ears, 12AD of plasma...

    Shield crits

    Interesting, we've basically used the same rules as everyone else of shield crits, BUT have reduced shield boost die equal to the maximum remaining strength of the shield - so 19 would be 0ne die (always get one die). Gives the Klingons a chance in a prolonged fight. And makes Gorn/Romulan...

    If you could have one non OS ship, what would it be?

    Cardassian Galor Class Cruiser :?

    Romulans vs Klingons. Oh my...

    I actually agree with you on the 'wait till it's all there' thing. I generally play either Fed/Kintzi v Klingon or Romulan v Gorn, so alot of the issues don't arise in these games (though i've still to work out how people think the Orion fleet is hard to lose with, Kzinti murder them, even with...

    Romulans vs Klingons. Oh my...

    The idea has been posted before - can't remember by who, with the twist that phasers count Killzone when used against plasma (still makes a P-3 too good :? ), so that the target ship got reasonable defense, but supporting ships suffered (explains why most Gorn/Romulan (and ISC) ships mount P-1...

    Romulans vs Klingons. Oh my...

    Wasn't worrying about hull redundancy (i actually like the D6/7), more bemoaning the massive drone spam that is occuring in fleets :roll: (could this be that i'm a Gorn at heart :evil: , so don't get to join in). Everything these days seems to have 4 drone racks. And i'd never say no to...

    Romulans vs Klingons. Oh my...

    the main problem the Klingons face with shields is rebuilding/reinforcing. If you get around the side (extremely hard with Klingons due to all the agile ships), the double shield rule actually becomes a weakness as the base levels are worse (D6/7 have 18pt shields so only rebuild/reinforce at 1...

    Reality Check ship costs for update 1 (and 2)

    That would ft with the upgraded Gorn Dreadnought (DNH), which has more weapons, better shields and a lower critical/crippled threshold - and is 10 points cheaper :?: :shock: :?

    We've Had Drones - now back to plasma

    With the recently released 'playtest' various drone types, escorts and Ph-G's, and all the chatter they generated, it set my mind to my weapon of choice and it's depiction in the game. I'm talking 'Plasma Torpedo' here. Now, i actually think the rules for plasma's are a good attempt at...

    Fleet Update #2 - Ready for Free Download

    Don't think the issue is the actual drones, just the 'upgrade' options. Plasma races go cry in the corner whenever a drone heavy fleet turns up (as do, i my experience, Orion's when trying to mug Kzinti - phasers, all well and good - but if you've used them all to shot down drones :?: :?: )...

    Fleet Update 2 - Questions, issues etc

    20AD - 'splutter', are you a Romulan spy - 21AD dear boy, 21AD

    Fleet Update 2 - Questions, issues etc

    What is it with the Gorn Dreadnought varients - both have improved shields (2 extra points), reduced critical rating (17 instead of 18), and obviously weapon changes (the DNH gets extra Phasers and Plasma-D, DNT loses Phasers and changes Torp Load). And there both cheaper than the Standard...
