Theres two problems with carries (Morshin excluded cause they disregard one carrier rule) Most carriers are not even half a warship. Thats acceptable, cause fighters make up for that. The Poseidon is even lacking a bit here. Here the Morshin breaks this rule, it gets you mroe fighters than you...

Check again David. It says: "Whenever a ship suffers 'A HIT', roll one die. It tells us whenever you siffer a single hit. A 6AD Matter cannon can score six hits, so you get 6 dodges. When it goes down to "all effects" it pratcially means, that you dont get to check for crits or anything like...

I simply dislike the fact that E-mines are anti-precise. Thats why i shy away from the Dag'kar, sure makes great for washing a Rothan to get rid of fighters, but if E-mines would do more damage, i might field one more often. I do have one, and it won me a game already ^^.

I rarely use them, but then again theyre hard to find in the Narn fleet...... Dag'kars are kinda dunno, and G'Stens are skirmish lvl, Theyre good, but against the Ka'Tan from hell, pretty much nothing compares.....

Ok i skimmed the last few posts, seemed to be getting mostly blabber...... and funny accusations. Beams are perfectly good as they are. Heck when you get to your third reroll, you already have a pretty low number of dice. 6AD against Hull4: 6AD at 2+ leaves 5 1. GO 5AD at 3+...

Just the base. He decided that painting anything on the actual minis might just not be woth the time, and better spent playing the game :D

A fellow gamer has gone even farther than numbers with his figters. OFC hes EA. He painted squadron ensignia on the hexbases. So he knows which furies belong onto whichever parent craft. Kinda makes it really neat. Plus crew is so fun. When EA and/or Narn play, its so often the crew crit that...

Basically i meant ships explode when they run out of damage points ofc ^^. then i went droning on rather non-splodey Centauri ships, and then the rather splodey Narn ships. Yes less numbers is good. But the time i need to record crew might be 5 minutes from the total game...... Now i prefer to...

Absolutely necessary ^^. Ships can explode, which is really cool. Now on the other hand consider Centauri ships like the Prefect or any ships which has crew scores barely bigger than the damage value. Wont really explode because crits mostly deal crew damage, so itll be de-crewed and less...

I keep all my boxes. Back in school i would keep all my PC game boxes. Though they were made from hard paper. Still have my fav game boxes though ^^. The new DVD boxes just plain suck. I could still transport my full armies in the boxes i bought the models^^. And I even keep the blisters ^^...

Actually as its Greek and not Latin, you'd have to go with a Chronoi :P So you have a fleet of Chronoi coming at ya.

I try to stack on Hull 6 ships, because i prefer the extreme opposite of Drazi tactics, no need for extra weapons, when youre simply around long enough to whittle em to death. Ok i play Narn so Hull and damage are plenty. My gripe with Hull4 hips is theyre total weakness to beams (that is...

Basically i never watched the TV series, except maybe 3 times.....at least you can count it with one hand. But kinda that already hooked me up. Bought all the box sets and now Im playing ACTA too......... Kinda love at first sight. Even though it was a very short sight...

Didnt vote, cause i I have never held a Starship Troopers fig in my hand, BUT ACTA stuff ranges from acceptable to seriously nice. (Wont say great, cause theres only so many a details a starship can have) OTOH theres stuff like the Drakh.....kinda hard to actually get any less detail at all :S...

Well it doesnt need to be radical to be good. Subtle is normally far more preferable. OTOH Stealth and fighters need a fix. One is too much like playing russian roulette, the other needs some boosting ^^. (Now dont mix em up.... :lol: )
