Re: 2E Test Covers

I'd take a little more black border to allow for the FULL picture at a slightly reduced size. That artwork is just too good to be covered up. But if others don't want the cover art reduced in size, I can see why that is a good thing as well. *Jay* Oh yea, wife knew exactly what I had in mind (Maybe ...

Re: [Lights in the Sky SPOILER THREAD] - The Wolves

Gotta say this Campaign looks very cool ! And as a Dr. Who fan, I also need to say "Bad Wolf".

Re: 2E Test Covers

All the covers are winners. I too like the Hex overlay at the top and bottom. Seeing the hexes just brings out the Grognard in me. I almost convinced my wife to put in a hexagonal grid pattern Vinyl flooring in my basement; it would have been colder in the winter than the carpeting we eventually got...

Re: Human Republic Playtest Thread

I'm a Military Party guy, but my heart (and my graft) sometimes goes toward the Technocratic. I want my shiny ships to be the best gosh-darn shiny ships in the sector.

Re: Legends of Nomord

Brennall, First, very nice system generator. And double thanks for sharing ! Second, I look at the list of options you have chosen and I say to myself ... yup, I need that. I really want that. And my gosh, I couldn't play without that. Right down the entire line. But then I look over that list and t...

Re: Human Republic Playtest Thread

What a interesting situation. For as I see it, we must defend the empire as offensively as we can, yet grow the empire whenever we can, still balancing out getting the tech of the empire up as fast as we can. And although there may be no perfect solution; where the emphasis is placed, could make thi...

Re: Any Updates?

After seeing that Second Edition does not look dead; in fact, these last 2 weeks have seen tremendous board activity, I have gone from board lurker to registered member. And I like what I have seen. I almost wish I hadn't known that VBAM Games had started the process to update you Campaign System, f...

Although with a lot of Bells and Whistles (Like done on a Airless, Harsh, or even more hazardous atmosphere world, one could make an arguement for pushing to T...
