I have played with a 3 Hyperion, 1 Nova, 2 Artemis fleet twice. Once against Centauri and the other against Minbari. Against the Centauri, the Hyperions held their own and managed to do tons of damage. Against the Minbari, they died in the first few volleys of Minbari Lasers patheticly. My...

Hear, hear! I say, Confusion to the Munchkins! In my day, we didn't need Energy Grids and Large Hangers to wage a perfectly good war!

Being a xenophobic Earthling, I of course, play Earth Force... sometimes I'm a Clarkist Earth First Loyalist when playing other Sissy Peace-loving Humans. My only exception to this is my Brakiri Fleet, because, I too, am a Corporate Pirate sailing upon the High Seas of International Finance...

Playability aside, we're talking fleet actions and engagements here. Was the sinking of the Bismark or the Yamato a balanced game? Was Trafalgar a balanced game? Or Tsushima? Granted, we're all not Nelsons or Tojos, but for the most part, the amount of balancing already in the game makes it...

Yeah I'm in a pinch. I only have the Brakiri Fleet Box set and a spare Avioki, which leans my roster toward the Battleship/Warship heavy TO&E. 2x TASHKAT/TAKATA DREADNAUGHT [WAR] 5x AVIOKI/KALIVA/BATRADO HEAVY CRUISER [BATTLE/RAID] 4x IKORTA/BRIKORTA LIGHT CRUISER [SKIRMISH] Lots of Falkosi...

What should a healthy Campaign Roster look like? Or, what kind of Space Fleet would you organize? 1) Mostly Warships! Break up a few points for fodder so that you can play the smaller scenarios. Fleets of Sharlins will make them wish they were never born! 2) Mostly Battleships! The...

Centauri and Earth Alliance. Earth Alliance because its my fleet and the show was pretty much shown through the eyes of the Babylon 5's Earthforce soldiers. Centauri because anything else would be uncivilized.

Impressive. I am surprised to see the Flanking and/or Hyperspace option gain so many votes. I've never seen a squadron "jump" in behind a fleet in any of my games. Is it really that much of a problem? I mean, if we are playing a 5 point Battle and I see you hold back 1 point off the table...

I favor artillery over fencing, so its pounding the enemy at distance as much as possible. My escort ships end up in the middle somewhere to slow down the advancing enemy as much as possible. Doesn't work all the time, but enough for me to have a good time of it all. Truth be told, it...

Since the release of SFoS, I have become disenchanted with the idea of a Carrier Taskfleet. I voted for the Cruisers, such as 4 Hyperions and a Nova for a 5pt Raid Game, or 2 Kaliva Lance Cruisers and 2 Ikortas for the Brakiri. I find myself outflanked most games, compounded by the fact that I...
