    Building question

    1) Cleaning - yes, a little soapy water and they should be good to go. Also use a hobby knife (metal) or sandpaper (resin) to remove the flashing. 2) Gluing - glue first. For the metals, I use super glue. Get the liquid and keep it in the freezer. An open tube lasts for years in the...

    Gorn Fleet - Comments Welcomed

    Does it really matter? If the Gorn were destroyed by drone fire, even with a dedicated anti-drone ship... Yes, some were destroyed by disrupter fire. But it's the hit percentage that's pretty stunning. I think that anyone (and I mean modern armies and air forces) would be thrilled with an...

    ACTA:SF - tractors, crits, and cloak

    OK. I think I was confused by context. The +4 or +2 doesn't actually change the roll. The +4 and +2 are the new to-hit numbers...

    ACTA:SF - tractors, crits, and cloak

    Huh? OK, I'm confused now. Let me go reread the rules and see if I can make sense of them again. I'll check back this evening.

    ACTA:SF - tractors, crits, and cloak

    Thanks scoutdad, For the tractors, I was wondering if I could anchor a ship and prevent it from launching things... :) Crits, fair enough on the example. Though I'm going to hate buying a new book when all the rules are worked out. The rule I was reading about repairs was from the campaign...

    ACTA:SF - tractors, crits, and cloak

    Hello, I got my rule book last night and read through the whole thing, in an hour or so. Thanks for making it so easy to follow. But I did have 3 questions that weren't answered or seemed very confusing in the book... these may have multiple parts. Thanks in advance Ogre 1) Tractors - can a...

    Gorn Fleet - Comments Welcomed

    I don't think it's a mistake. It is THE main attack weapon of the Star Fleet universe. Even in SFB, they are over-powered. They cost no energy, have no reload, and are guaranteed hits at even long range... well, not anymore, but the principle is the same. Why charge and overload disruptors...

    Updated Errata & FAQ

    Are the rules changes to lumbering and drone control and drone range 'official'? i.e. will the errata sheet be updated?

    Gorn Fleet - Comments Welcomed

    I hope they aren't acting too differently :| Anyway, I think Captain Jonah is definitely on the right track, though I don't think I agree that a change to plasmas is the best route to go. It's going to have to be something in the rules, not the ships... though I would be a lot happier with...

    Gorn Fleet - Comments Welcomed

    I am reminded of a scene from Car Wars... can Mad Dog survive 3 turns of recoiless rifle fire, while he closes to range 3 or less with his heavy rocket? Any time one side can kill/cripple enemy ships on turn 1 and without any movement taking place is a bad mechanic. I love drone races. I...

    US Distribution

    I'm pretty sure he means just to the US distributors. Thanks. I'll go ahead and put in my order for the Fed and Klingon Fleets. I really hope you guys can work out the Gorn/drone issues. This has the makings of a great game. I have some blank counters and I will try to find some people...

    US Distribution

    Any ideas what kinds of material? Fleet or squadron boxes? I'll put in my order with the local guy on Thursday if I know what can be expected.
