Could this poor fellow get an answer, perhaps?

Some of the skill terminology needs to be brushed up. Throughout the careers we are given Guns (any), then in the skills section it changes to Gun Combat. Also, decide how you consider the skills, and stick to it. Diplomat, Investigate, Astrogation... Much better to have: a) Diplomat...

Well, you could argue Starfurys work as interceptors vs Epsilon 3's defense system in A Voice in the Wilderness... Almost certainly not the example you were after though.

I'm not a Traveller player. Yet. This new edition might just make me invest. I like the simple cover. In my opinion it looks classy. If it had a bunch of spaceships or some dude in sci-fi armour or whatever else on it I would find it very, very easy to dismiss it as just another sci-fi rpg...

Interesting. I'm quite intrigued by what's going on in your setting. The B5 ccg has plenty of named League characters, and some might give you ideas for the traits they'll have. You can check them out here. Best to view by type, then character. League characters have the subtype non-aligned...

Thanks. Hope to be there! 8)

Actually we see the Narn using energy mines at the Battle of Gorash 7, during the Narn-Centauri war. There is even the exact line "Fire energy mines!", so I've no doubt about the weapon in use.

Hey guys. There's a few of us in Swansea, getting (back) into ACTA. We play quite a lot of games, always have a blast, and more often then not see what we consider be be highly amusing freak accidents (like an Adira carving something like 130 damage out of a Ka'Bin'Tak. I always enjoy reading...

Thanks. That's what we ruled as well, but it didn't seem obvious that we were making the right ruling at the time.

Today we broke out an Ipsha War Globe and immediately came across a rules question. If a SM ship uses the all power to engines special order, how does the order and the trait interact? Can the ship only speed off in the direction it faces at the beginning of the turn? Can it choose which...

It seems to me that the Brakiri are missing models for several ships as well, at the moment.

IIRC the Gaim player in the battle was using: 1 Shrutaa 1 Shakaak 1 Stuteeka 2 Sataaka If that helps. Not the best fleet possible, but one using the models the player currently has. As an impartial observer to that battle, I have to say the Gaim looked seriously nasty this time. Compared to...

Thanks guys! That certainly helps me out. I can definitely understand the desire to play one league race, but I'm terribly indecisive, if I was restricted to one I'd never manage to start a fleet. Now I can happily toodle along with a mess of various ships. Any recommendations of league ships I...

Hey guys. Just recently been getting back into ACTA (played a little first ed., but with a play group of 2 it didn't last long.) and I've been nosing around the forums which has given rise to a few questions for me. 1. Now I haven't been able to lay my mucky paws on a fleet book yet, and I've...

I'd love to see the Hurr get a full fleet personally. I don't know why but for some reason they're a race that always leaves me wanting to know more, much like the Ipsha. I'd really like to see both races hit the tabletop with proper fleets.
