Matt's Blog: Ringing the Call to Arms

[Triggy]

20 months.

LOL, perfect

I hope there will be some more ships in P&P not only additional fleet rules

 

[Da Boss]

Triggy posted on another thread he doubts there will be except a Vorlon frigate (no mention of Shadow Skirmish ship) as there are already two models for the transport.............

Given that is it likely there will be no models for anything for sale at the time P+P comes out and only available 2nd hand, lucky finds etc it seems a shame..........

Updating fleets and the ships that need it, could be done in S+P now which would help the matter and if required republish on a couple of pages in P+P (perhaps even unchanged).

It woudl have been nice to have P+P as a update with the counter set (for all ships including a number of new ones).

If tis varients only - well that does still mean a variety of fleets could get some more: thinking of Abbai, Dilgar, Drakh, Shadows..............

Presumably Earth will get something - As noted in another thread be nice to do something with the old Olympus hull in the same way as the larger Vorlon transport hull?

Matt just made another post on Planet Mongoose:

Hopefully Early EA ist not the only EA list who gets some new rules as it is IMOthe list with the least problems and the best EA list to win.

I must say I like the concept of taking space stations to a tournament. Just for the comedy value.

(5 point battle fleet = Shadow Cloud plus some cheerleaders)

"How many hit points did you say that thing has?"

 

[Tolwyn]

Jup, I'm looking forward to the new station rules, too.

Shadow Cheerleaders - intersting concept :wink:

Take one sea urchin, spray black = Instant Shadow Base... :lol:

So what is the contract about? As it has already been signed, I see no harm in telling us about it.

 

[B5Temple]

I'm just thinking of seeling my soul to some dark and sinister power and its associates to get to know more :wink:

Funny you should say that, since this "Powers and Principalities" line comes from a Bible verse:

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." - Ephesians 6:12

This is by no means correct, I'm afraid. We negotiated many deals while I was at Mongoose and more often than not the announcement timing is a focal part of the contract. You should know Matt loves to talk about things, so you can bet if he was able to he would. There always seems the assumption that life in the gaming industry is a free-wheeling berrfest where an occasional bit of work crops in. I know that isn't what you are saying, but it's relevant to mention it.

I'm afraid you guys will just have to be patient.

And I'm not a moderator any more so don't even think about moaning to me.

Yet it says so below your User Name :wink:

The easy way to tell us apart, one of us drools over Bill Shatner, the other over Claudia Christian.

LBH

Well, I hope Old Bear doesn't walk around pointing at himself and say "Teddy Chang!" (J/K) :lol:

Claudia Christian.

So hot

 

[lastbesthope]

I just need her to do one more Mongoose event so I can get her to sign her Playboy.

[JayRaider]

The new book needs to address the balance problem of some ships.
I'd hate to see another book, that adds some new traits etc and ignores the current issues with the game.

If she does an event over there, mind if I ship my copy to you to get signed as well? Of course, I'd rather be there in person.

Talk about an unexpected and delightful treat when I was in tech school after getting out of basic training

 

[lastbesthope]

I'm sure we could come to some arrangement.
