Maps are up on the yahoo site. They are made in yEd, which can be found here (Great Vbam tool). The key: Colored systems are colonies or have ground units present for the empire. Octogons are supply points. Large systems are core worlds. (Only homeworlds at start) Bold lines are major lanes. Dashed ...

Well my map has more low raw systems to add strategic depth as well as using a hex based method of map creation (27 hexes per slice with 1 of them being shared for the center piece). A good rule of thumb is 10 systems per player. Having at least 10 assures that there will be more than one or two sys...

Bloodlust

Gaerlandia The Lord Marshal sat reviewing reports from sector 37; another petition to be given full status as a colony. What had started as a minor outpost now has a few sizable communities. It was time to recognize them, but that is largely irrelevant to him. The discovery of another alien relic, ...

I think the lack of games is more due to the impending development of 2nd edition then a lack of interest. I think a GM'less game would work fine, just a bit of extra legwork on the player's part. -Will It makes since that that everyones is waiting for 2nd ed. I guess there would also be issues wit...

GM'less Games

Howdy, I’ve been lurking for a while since I have returned to life after graduating. It seems like there are fewer campaigns running than there used to be a while ago (at least online). I failed last time I tried to run one :cry: but I was wondering if there is still a lot of interest in online game...

I believe it’s done separately for each attack, but I don't usually do that, so I could be wrong.

I was confused about this when I started as well. This is how it works:

1 Flight takes 1 BC
4 Flights equal a Wing
All Flights in a squadron are effected by "squadron" flight abilities

Flights are still very powerful and flight leaders are near impossible to kill.

Smite Them! (*in loud paladin-like voice*) :twisted:

How would you rate/add traits? +3 for scout +1 for split up scout funtions. Most others aren't imporatant enough to rate, but if they are a +1 is likely ok. I'd probably go with unit designation since that usually is a good indicator. A sucky CA is still is a CA and needs a relatively large crew. T...
