First of all, let me say that I'm very excited about the news that this is going to be published at some point in 2009 (hopefully). One question I had was: Was there a decision made on the campaign scale (Local, Regional or Strategic)? Initially I probably would have wanted the Regional Strategic le...

VBAM + Starmada: Admiralty Edition
Hey guys... Can someone provide some information on what's going to happen regarding the VBAM: The Starmada Edition book? Will there be an update to the Admiralty Edition, and will it be a separate stand alone product or will it be an update to the current product? ie, if it's a new product entirely...

Some questions about the CSCR...
Hey guys... Couple of questions about the CSCR. One isn't a question, so much as a comment. The equation to determine AS and AF fire is algebraically the same. AS damage = (AS * ( D6 + RM) / 10 ) AF Damage = (AF * ( D3 + RM / 2) / 5 ) Another way to look at AF Damage is: (AF * ( (D6 / 2) + (RM / 2) ...

I'll let you know any fun points in the Campaign Designer's Handbook (CDH) (which can still be bought 'new'). The technology trees are actually pretty applicable to Federation Commander, although I don't buy some elements (the movement tech tree looks cool, but since I've never played an SFB/FC game...

Got it! (And any upcoming games for newbies?)
So VBAM showed up at my door on Saturday. I've begun looking through the base rulebook (I also got the CM guide, The Menagerie, and the Boltians and Kuirassian sourcebook). Looks like a lot of fun, and I'm already creating a universe in my head and on paper (combined with Starmada's combat system). ...

Some VBAM questions from a prospective purchaser...
I just ran across this set of space campaign rules on the Star Fleet Battles forums and became intrigued as much by the system in its own right as by the fact that there may be a Federation Commander linkage upcoming. I have a couple of questions before I dive in however (I have a shopping cart some...
