Re: 2ed Ship Generator

I opened it up on my Droid 2 and the double tap works fine. What doesn't seem to work is any way to close the popup and return to the form without closing the whole thing out.

Re: MAS WWII Random campaign generator

That's the role filled by Campaigns 4 and 5 (Land and Sea Operations, respectively). They are designed to be repeated in any order desired as the clock rolls on and new aircraft enter service.

Re: Converting to 2E stats exploration

I don't think there was ever a conflict regarding orbital colonies just because of the Jovian Chronicles license. However, we will need to go back and revisit how they might work in a regular game. I have no doubt that they will reappear in some form for use in 2E games. :)

Re: MAS: WWI Plane Pack 1 Releases & Jovian Chronicles End o

One of the files in the ZIP pack should be "MAS WWII PP1.pdf" which includes a table (on pg 3) with all the stats of the new aircraft, including cost, availability and in-service dates.

Re: MAS WWII Plane Pack

Yes. Yes, you should. :wink:

For the benefit of all, I've just sent the files of Plane Pack 1 to Jay and Tyrel. :D

Re: Human Republic Playtest Thread

Tyrel, speaking from experience, but the only way to get a pre-CS version of Illustrator to run on a Vista or Windows 7 box is through some sort of virtual desktop that can emulate a 32 bit environment. There are ways to accomplish, but it's a huge hassle, so I finagled my way into a copy of Illustr...

Re: 2E Feedback

I'm sure you haven't offended him. This kind of feedback is just what is needed as 2E firms up. The nature of his work means he sometimes disappears for a stretch, but then he'll be back. :)

Re: MAS WWII Plane Pack

All 11 plane sheets are done. Next week will see the creation of the plane counters and some verbage to tie it all together and Plane Pack #1 will be ready. :)

Re: Hello, Can I ask for some advice ..

I used the Commodore system for all of my solo campaigns as a compromise between having more detailed systems, but saving a few steps in system generation that didn't really impact gameplay. With automated tools, I'd probably give serious consideration to bumping up to Admiral because I do like the ...

Re: 2E Tech Questions

The whole notion of orbital structures as presented in Jovian Chronicles would have to be carefully re-thought for balance purposes in a more general game of VBAM.

That said, it's something that should be done at some point, whether in the core rules or as an expansion down the road at some point.

Thanks, but I'm about halfway done. Another week of squeezing them in amongst other things, I should just about have the pack ready. :)
