Re: Human Republic Playtest Thread
Aha - I just got the RSS Feed about this play-test (I'd missed it up until now, and the forums had been so quiet that I'd stopped checking in regularly), I'm not really up to date with current events (I'm reading as fast as I can!), but if it helps breaking the deadlock I think throwing my lot in wi...

Re: Transfering EP
It depends upon how many EP the faction has to spare to put towards research... If Haven can pile the pressure on the Manties then they may be spending their EPs on repairs and new vessels, and be unable to meet the research requirements for the year, enabling Haven to catch up. Also remember that a...

Re: Using VBAM for an Honorverse-type Setting
Oh, another quick thought - consider the defensive bonus for formations to always be in effect for long-ranged fire (by default the formation bonus only applies to targeted fire in VBAM),

Re: Using VBAM for an Honorverse-type Setting
Remember that a month can cover a lot more than just travel (it might include time spent loading and offloading cargo or consumables, travel into or out of a system (which is much slower), etc), Also consider that you could re-frame the turn period to one-week turns if it seems more appropriate (you...

Re: Using VBAM for an Honorverse-type Setting
Giving Haven a crappy tech base might also help a lot - that combined with some poor research ability will keep them behind the curve even with their massive economy,

Re: Name Change
VBAM: Supers is certainly somewhat... dry!
While "City in Peril" is selling the setting, does it push the superpowered theme enough? If not it may make a better subtitle?
