    Anyone else got dodgy bindings on their ACTA2e books?

    I just received both books yesterday and got around to perusing the rules book today. I was pretty freaked when I opened the book and it creaked like an old saloon door. And then when I saw that puckered page effect... eww... the stuff of gamer's bad dreams. Naturally I came here to see if...

    Fighter stand/bases

    Yes probably so. And in that regard, I guess all I'd really need would be the little "arms" then...

    Don't suppose they'll be some made with round bases will there?

    Some questions from a new player

    Thanks guys... forums like this really help the new players get up to speed. Follow up to the distance question though... so for a target to be in range, the measurement from stem to stem must be in the effective range of the weapon... right? ya know its funny how many times the distance is...

    Some questions from a new player

    Please excuse the barrage of probably very simple questions but I'm having a hard time finding the exact answer to some of these and figure it would be easier to just ask them all at once... 1) When determining if a ship blows up, is it the attacker or defender who rolls the explosion check...

    Gaming table

    I've found tooth brushes might apply more of a mist than "stars". On large tables I like the fairly large sized drops. I use either a finger flick (finger dipped in paint then quickly flicked onto your surface). This has a tendency to deposit in a line pattern though so care has to be taken...

    Orlando ACTA events in October & November

    Hey Skip how many others of your group have added their name to the Player Locator thread here? Looks like maybe only one if any. You think you might could mention that thread at your event? ...would be nice to know the names of some other players in the area. And keep posting those...

    what brand?

    Some of the experts would probably offer argument to what I'm about to suggest and may be right for all I know... I certainly am no expert that's for sure. You may want to try the cheap paints that can be had for about 75 cents at craft stores (i.e. Michaels) or even WalMart. I started using...

    70mm bases?

    Here's some that might work though I think they're smaller than what you need... http://store.usacomicbooks.com/wa40laflba.html (that's the CCGarmory.com store) I recently bought some and they're 2 3/8"... don't have a metric measure handy but I think these are the 60mm ones. When you at...

    ACTA campaign in Orlando starting in September

    The actual Con lasts from Thursday to Sunday... the B5 event is Sat. If your close it might be worth the trip just to stop in and see all the dioramas of the various games. Some are very elaborate.

    Hi, I'm new and linkage to batrep

    If you are the do-it-yourself type you can just go to the fabric store and get a huge piece of material to make your own. There's a several types of material that I'd think would work... I use a sort of heavy cloth (not quite canvas). Start with the basic black and then "flick" some white...

    Clarification of which rule set trumps which.

    Thank you both... I would have thought since the revised set came out with the SFOS updates, those updates would have included ship stats as well. :roll:
