My preference would be neither but instead one of the original suggestions such as 4+ save against critical hits. In the original SFB Gorns had a lot Central Hull, not just Front and Rear, now it has been a long time, but the effect of this is with two ships that have received equal damage. the...

So I went and purchased the game and thought....you know....this is pretty good, and by pretty good I am planning on miniture purchases (just need see how that would be best done as I am in Australia) and making this my go to game for sci-fi. I am an avid SFB player from a long time ago (over...

Sigh The more I read the more I want to buy this game. ACTA is clearly designed for larger scale actions. My own preference would be for squadron size actions, with the occasional large lfeet and the occasional one on one. Can any one comment on how the game handles the different scaling...

I have to agree with this. I will buy suppliments from who ever makes them, which looks more like Mongoose. DV is the main line but anything else that might be interesting. I will not be buying either system again. What is the point? What differences are people expecting? Oh, yes, hello...

Over the last few months I have purchased all the RQII available from rpg drive thru and I doubt I will be buying core rule books from anyone. What I want would be supplements and background material, regardless of who produces it. If both systems are going to be not only simiar to each...

No, my idea would a be a Witcher and then a couple of other oddities. What I am working on for my campaign is a DV setting without all the silly stuff, include insanity and fear, mix in some CoC and run it much more dark. Set in a High Medieval Period. Magic should be rare and wonderfull...

In the books Geralt often has someone with him and certainly does so in the PC games. You could not be a party of Witchers but could be friends or even other "creatures" that have escaped the church, such as an elf, or a mage. It certainly would be better with smaller, slightly tougher groups...

It strieks me that DV isa ll about the chain swords and secret gadgets. I found the adventure fairly decent and as I said will purchase everything that comes out. It is the right period but to me the feel is wrong. While just my preference I would drop all the gadgets and silly stuff and...

I have purchased all the Deus Vult stuff. I find Deus Vult, well, "silly". Where Witcher is dark and brooding, Deus borders, at least for me, on crazy. You have chain swords and players are more like James Bond secret agents. At the end of the day it is more a style difference and will...

How about the Witcher series as a basis for a world? Low level magic, similar to Earth in the Middle Ages. Has loads of potential and lots of fun.

Any chance it will be released on DriveThruRPG? I have found postage is a killer (to Australia)

I am not sure what system the game started in but I believe they used GURPS at the end.

<===== Also in Sydney I have only recently purchased the rules, but have to say these seem worth the money. I have yet to paly but am an avid sc-fi fan, B5 in particular and have played Star Fleet Battles and B5 Wars. Just a short note on miniatures. Regardless if I ever play the game I...

Have just purchased the rules, reading how to play and drooling over the ships. The rule for AP. Now maybe I am a tad slow but does the rule play as a) You roll all hits and add +1 to the total. In effect you gain an additional hit. b) You roll all the hits and each dice has +1. You tend...

Thanks guys. I have just noticed you can purchase the rules online as pdf, so I am printing them off now. Just need to tell my wife :lol: Do they make enough model types for the game. ie, are there gaps in the model series? What about B5 Fllet action? Can you still purchase their models?
