    Comments on "Ships of the Galaxy"

    I noticed it too, the first to hit me is how the Omega Destroyer has 2 Fore Beam Weapons and no Aft is SotG (vs. the 1 Fore and 1 Aft of the core). The Command Variant has a Aft Beam, but it still has the 2 Foreward ones. As for Aramanthus mention. I think the pilots listed are the dedicated...

    am i missing something *(space combat)

    Aye... but the problem some people had is how the Delta Raider can not threaten the Starfury unless an entire wing hits one Starfury and they each hit, and even then. In the show we did see Starfury taking it, but it was not to the point of nul threat. From what the book shows a Starfury can...

    Antimatter Weapons

    I finally got my Ship Builder's Guide from my friend, it was explained in it. Still would have been nice if they reprinted the blurp material or atleast indexed it for us. Someone who did not buy SBG or has not read it yet would be lost or confused.

    Antimatter Weapons

    I just bought Ships of the Galaxy and loving it. But one thing has me stumped. Antimatter Weapons... what the heck does that do. All the special rules are explained in small blurps or indexed back (usually back to the core), and even sometimes they reprint them for ease of use (like the Mass...

    am i missing something *(space combat)

    Here is a few others. Improved Brace for Impact: As long as a hit location has 2 boxes remaining or more, 1 structure will remain before excess damage goes to the next location. If a section is down to its last structure (or it only had 1 Structure to begin with), then the structure can be...

    am i missing something *(space combat)

    *chuckles* I posted that while at work. I will put each of them separately. Armour Degradation: Each second hit in a barrage degrades the armour of a ship by 1, this does not include beam weapons as they have their own armour damage. Ships of Medium size and smaller also take one armour damage...

    am i missing something *(space combat)

    I came up with a few house rules that helped alliviate some of these problems. So far they seem to work really well and even makes dog fighters and fighter wings more interesting to play. If anyone is interested I would be happy to post them up here.

    Give me a rundown on the game

    I have to agree with the previous two posters. I own all of JC and I love it, however the problem always arises that what do the players know. I had players that would read what they need (ie the core book and whatever supplement they are from ie a Marsian PC would read the Mars book). However...

    Confusion over Force Blade

    As for Range I have no idea, but most attack spells and few others defualt to 120 ft, so it is safe to assume untill official word, that 120 ft is its range. If it is like lightning hand, I believe you can launch multiple attacks with it in one round with your additional base Magical CS, but...

    Brotherhood of the Crystal Star Lacks Variety

    Not to sound like a Secret Police, but Counterspell is a spell that is learnt with the other spells, thus it is at level 10 the BotCS have all the spell. Did not it seem weird that at level 10 they still get "a spell". Now after being a anally retentive picky man, I will say I agree with you...

    Anyone really started playing yet?

    I did the Scene with Grey Star, I can go into deeper details but in short summary: The Kai Lord threatened Tanith 3 times, and suspects that Grey Star will become Evil (I had him use Evocation to escape the Prison, the Forbidden Tome really upset the Kai Lord). They separated shortly after the...

    Lone Wolf: the game of foolish heroes doomed to fail?

    I agree, I enjoy the deperate dark heroic fantasy setting. As for evil campaigns, I tend to get bored of them quickly as a GM. There might be several reason but first I can say is because I can not stand how most people play evil, alot of my players play it a "poche evil". What I mean is it...
