Theoretically a bleed through torpedo that lays 2 - 3 crits on a ship that all hit the same section could do it. Multiple Strikes to the Dilithium chamber would be a disaster. Though, the odds of that are unlikely to say it mildly.

I know none of this is really covered in ACTA book and I have zero experience with Federation Commander or Star Fleet Battles. Are there rules or information about planetary bases for Heavy Phasers or ground cannons of some kind. I was thinking one could work as a kind of 'missile battery'...

This was actually on us. This was the first time we started using that special order. I didnt notice it till we were doing the 1 on 1 fighting. So it would have changed things up only a little. The CA-Alpha didnt make it, so its fate would not have changed. What would have changed is the...

Just a thought on the overall 'Taming of the Klingons' purpose on the thread. My friend and I sat down this weekend and play tested a few things. Overall, we did four games. Two 'demo games' and then two variable games. 1st Demo: I played 2 D7s & he played 2 CAs. Neither of us had ever played...

The Freighter models are indeed, very good. The Scenario is also quite a good idea! The Freighter Models, where are they from?

Does anyone else think that is a bit much? I have had no problems dishing out damage with Phasers critting on a 6. Seems a little overpowered considering that is all the Federation use.

A Call to Arms - Scenario Celes Sector: Federation Territory Star Date: 173.10.26.2208 The following battle was not part of our official campaign. Since we have not played in a while we both agreed that this should not count. We still allowed ships to earn experience but damage would not be...

Is this Correct? Phaser's deal critical damage on a 5 or 6? I know the part about 1s become 2s so effectively they will always deal damage, but that is rather strong. We have been doing it on natural 6s on all weapons, even Phasers and they have been working out well.

Id be more then willing to part with them. Is it just the ball and peg joint or the whole thing? A majority of my stands will have Billco's firing arc stickers on them, and a few of the stands I have 'modified' to just stick the ships on them (Three of them) but I still have the ball and peg...

The way my friend an I rationalized it out and think we will roll with is the following: 1. At the start of your turn, declare a H.E.T. 2. Either begin your turn (if you are dedicating your entire move to sitting in place and turning) or move the required distance to start your initial turn...

Wait, then by that logic, shouldnt you still get the turn? It states thats in the rules. If you dont proceed with the turn then what caused the damage? Your ship 'knew you were going to do it' so it throws its hip out in anticipation? I think that is what they mean by getting the bonus turn...

Okay, have a question about this special order. It has been used twice in our games to devastating effect and it has always raised questions. Now, it reads a little strangely but we interpret it as such: Unlike other orders you carry out your move as you would normally, taking into account...

Thought I had a decent 'fleet' of 25 federation ships. Apparently just a Taskforce really. Though, I get dirty looks from my wife with the current ship count I have. :lol:

Unfortunately, not in the UK however I do have ten stands that I could part with. They all already have Billco's firing arc stickers put on them as well.

If one of those factions is Federation, then the starter fleet box + singles of the new 'War-Class' vessels is a good way to go.
