    Hunting Balvarins...

    Or specifically a miniature for said ship. Does anyone have one theyre looking to sell on, painted or otherwise? Preferably full sized but FA would be acceptable too! PM me if so!

    Tourney in Aldershot

    One question though guys: Is 5 point war not pushing it a tad for a short tourney game (also a tad limiting on some folks who play fleets like Drazi etc and dont happen to have lots of the bigger Drazi ships etc) Only other thing Id say is I agree with Digger about the beam rules, yes the...

    Stargate ACTA conversion

    As noted at that point Atlantis was running with one ZPM rather than the 3 it's supposed to have not to mention the fact that the ancients had/could make more as needed to replace them as the shields depleted them.

    A New Edition of ACTA is coming...

    Well not liking Star Trek ships is rather a matter of personal taste as has already been touched on by alot of folks but given the number of ships and races I still find it hard to understand how anyone can hate them ALL and yet love so many more of the B5 Ships. Oh don't get me wrong, I prefer...

    EA early years v ISA

    Fighters can attack as long as theyre within 2" range, the issue about numbers contacting the stem only really comes into it with suicide fighters (gaim and dilgar) or targets with stealth. And yes you can shoot at fighters in base contact with enemy SHIPS but not if theyre in contact with enemy...

    Dag' Kar' kar' kar' kar' kar' kar

    AoG made a bunch of such 'joke' ships. The Narn Da'ga'ga'ga'ga'ga'ga'ga'kar was according to AOG named after the sound the centauri admiral made upon first spotting it :P Some other clasics they came up with: The Posseidonova. Take one Posseidon hull. Cover every square inch of it with big...

    Rules Wish List

    Sorry Digger but this is just not a good idea as it just adds more complexity to the moment rules. And for that matter why should a ship not be able to go back to full speed next turn. After all it can all stop after going all power to engines the previous turn. ACTA's movement system is very...

    Pwned by my own Canteauri

    1) The regular hyperion whilst good is in my eyes simply too fragile for raid level. The RAIL hyperion on the other hand is an absolute gem of a ship and should be used liberally!. 2) The Olympus gunship is a horrible ship but personally I would say the regular Olympus loaded with heavy...

    Playtest Rules -- Drazi

    No no no sir, you misunderstand me! I was merely mentioning in passing that I still despise the stealth rules as though they are perfectly fair and balanced in my oppinion now they are excrementally un-fun to play with or against and are just reduce the game to a contest of lucky dice rolling a...

    Playtest Rules - Fighter Flight VPs

    Lets be honest though Burger, how likely, if we're honest, do you think it is that an Abbai player in their right mind is EVER going to field purchaced wings og Kothas, the most useless bucket ever to fly the skies ;) Ok it's not as bad now you at least get bazillions of them but still...

    Playtest Rules: Manoeuvre to Shield Them

    Ok. No. I completely agree with the above, I hadnt noticed the bit about the minaiture rather than the stem. All of a sudden folks using full size minis have an advantage over guys using FA scale or counters. For my part I personally use Liandras as Nolotars and vice versa since the Nolotar...
