    Handling In "Ships of the Galaxy" v "Ship Bui

    I totally agree. When I bought the ship builder's manual, I had in mind to create a new shadow-type cruiser to use in my campaign. As it is, I can only use the ones in Ship of the Galaxy. The SBM does not allow us to recreate the ships in SOG. A good point was raised. Perhaps we could devise...

    am i missing something *(space combat)

    I asked the same question a little while ago in a thread called B52E Space combat. Even if no official answer from mongoose was given, there is opinions and suggestions to fix the problem. It bugs me too...a lot... :evil:

    B52E Space Combat

    Just seen the adaptive armor special quality. Ouch!!! Coupled with the Victory awesome armour, let anyone try to scratch this vessel now! It is immune to all except perhaps the shadow cruiser and a barrage by a Minbari sharlin. As for the offence vs armour problem, I have thought about this and...

    B52E Space Combat

    Hello to everyone, I just got my B52E copy and I must say that I am quite impressed with the good work everyone at Mongoose has been doing. I must congratulate you all. Loved the new psychic rules. Hated the fact that earlier version telepaths had to handpick powers that they could use. Love...

    Review: The Rangers

    Shouldn't the WSC-1 get pivotal thrusters? As it is only the WSC 2 and beyond gets it. Is it a typo? :?:

    Creating a Techno-Mage PC/NPC

    Hey! I have a couple of questions to ask along the way: :?: 1) Where is the fourteen words to make someone fall in love forever (Ok... there is the suggestion spell but it is limited to minute long maintaining, we know by the Centauri trilogy that it is far more powerful than that...) 2) Does...

    The Dreaded Minbari Fleet...or not...

    If I remember correctly from the core rulebook, each ship must make a sensor check vs Stealth when another enters within a 100 square radius to be able to detect it. If they fail that, they won't even know a enemy ship is lurking on them. :shock: This makes the Minbari a lot more...

    Centauri vs Narn

    Now that we know the statistics of Centauri and Narn warships, who do you think has the advantage? I personnaly think the Narns have the advantage. The Frazis have the same stats as Sentri (except a -1 to Handling and Sensors) but have twin-linked cannons vs a single cannon for Sentris. The...

    Errata...please?

    I agree that the space combat system has a major flaw: It was designed for capital ship fights. It is a good system (It worked for me anyway), allowing for speedy, efficient running of space fights. :D "What? A heavy laser has just dropped a hundred hit points of my 300HP hull? Hump... I think...

    Starship rate of fire question

    As I understand it, each weapon on a vehicle can fire once a round, correct? :?: And what's more, each weapon is controlled by a single officer. So, if we have...let's say...an Omega destroyer with an expert crew. The crew has a base attack bonus of +6/+1 (perhaps higher, I don't really...

    Damage Reduction and Interceptors question

    Just some clarifications: 1) The minbari fighter is armed with fusion cannons. If you read the description of said weapon in the core book, you'll see that it ignores half DR. That makes the Minbari even more terriffying. :evil: 2) I'm not sure about this one but I always thought that the...
