    assembly instructions?

    Don't think so. There might've been a sheet in the original box set but I can't remember. But try this - it should help. http://theminiaturespage.com/workbench/15130/

    What figure should he get?

    Cheeky! :D Ok, so what are his outgoings (not personal living expenses, but upkeep and maintenance, staff costs, energy/fuel bills and insurance, etc) on that? When you've got his net income sorted out, go through the suggestions above and make a single concept model for working out how much...

    The loss of Dredd License - what does it mean?

    Rebel minis in the US have bought Mongoose moulds for other ranges. I'm only guessing, but they'd be the first place I'd look, in their 28mm sci-fi and horror ranges. http://www.rebelminis.com/

    BF:E Errata

    I did consider a 'heavy armour' trait that would allow tanks and heavily armoured vehicles to re-roll a failed save against some weapons (Mg's, HMG's, artillery and autocannon up to 30/35mm) which might do the trick.

    BF:E Errata

    I've seen a few posts that mention a 23mm round hitting an Abrams through the rear grille and stopping it (presumably a mobility kill, possibly a total kill if the engine was damaged enough), but not through the front.

    BF:E Errata

    There is a huge problem with the rules which you kind of highlighted with the increased capabilities of the .50 cal. The armour penetration and weapon performance is somewhat unrealistic. Consider an M1 Abrams - if a .50 cal rolls a d8, then it could knock it out (with 4 hits, I'll grant you)...

    BF:E Errata

    The MEA works better as an Afghan list, but it could work fairly well as ISIS. Humvees would be a definite possibility, as would be M113 APC's and T-72's. Not sure I'd go as far as M1's though - ISIS have destroyed several Iraqi M1's, but as far as I'm aware, have yet to capture any (They'd be...

    Mars Preparation Question

    As to the subsequent questions. Go and read David Weber's 'Dahak' trilogy and James P Hogan's 'Giants' series - between them you should be able to develop thousands of plot hooks and campaigns that should keep you going for a good while.

    A more challenging fleet?

    So this friends' PC's have installed themselves as the Goa'uld equivalent, with a fleet of obedient Jaffa equivalents? I'm sure nothing can possibly go wrong with that concept, sounds like a game-winning strategy to me! :twisted: The problem with scaling-up is that you will be continually in...

    The Imperial Church

    Yes, that is a good possibility - it really all depends on the setting and the interpretation of the church's role really. Certainly, I think that the terms are pretty much interchangeable - all Chaplains would be Priests, but only a minority of Priests would be Chaplains.

    The Imperial Church

    It would depend on the parish - usually they would be of a fixed geographical area, but could equally be a starship, a space station or a series of belt habitats. If a parish had a lot of parishioners, it would be more common to enlarge the place of worship and bring in an assistant priest (or...

    The Imperial Church

    The Priest will be the most senior church official of the parish, usually assisted by assistant priests or vicars; one Dean or Archpriest will be in charge of a group of fixed parishes, in addition to his own parish, which would likely cover a continent or country (but could conceivably be an...

    Star Wars Gozanti-Class Cruiser

    One other thing to remember is that one variant of the Gozanti, the Escort Cruiser, will have 4 docking clamps for Tie series fighters.

    The neighborhood is a little more crowded

    Although we can be quite certain that the majority of hydrocarbons on Earth were as a result of biological deposition (hence - fossil fuel), it still doesn't rule out non-biological formation on other planets. In fact, the discovery of methane on Titan would only reinforce the idea that it is a...

    The Invasion Begins: an unofficial Andromedan discussion

    No, I don't think anyone is still interested over here. It's not being supported on this side of the Atlantic so has pretty much died off. Sad but that's what happens sometimes.
