So ... I just bought Empire sourcebook in order to quicly start playing by VASSAL.
Anyone interested ? Or I just have waste some €? :evil:
Thanks for your answer, but i still not know what to do ...
Ok so let's start with a setting I know, the Ten Worlds (from Attack Vector).
The classic match-up in this game is the Saladin Incident.
In this scenario, the Saladin, an Al-Rafik Class frigate with medium ranged weaponnery, rear missile launchers and empty docking bay, is attacking the Warspite, a Wasp frigate armed with short range powerful lasers and two one shot missiles launchers.
Each of them also bring light coilguns on their flanks.
The Al-Rafik score points by eliminating the Warspite or by escaping by the Warspite's edge (where there is an umprotected convoy). The Warspite must simply kill the Saladin.
Here are the designs, thanks to the ship builder !
I choose to not represent the missile launchers by seekers but with classic batteries, in the name of simplicity.
Saladin :

Do you think these are valuable designs ?
I will try this scenario in solo game soon.
cheers,
Ok, I just bought and read the core rules.
What should I buy next, the Rules annex or the Imperial sourcebook ?
The ship designs, campaig system, scenario generator and 3D movement system of the latter seems better.
But are the rules in the annex going to be more useful ?
forgot about demo, i'm ready to try the full rules, even with options.
Nothing, really nothing can beat the Cantal, and especially the Salers.
This is a french guy that say it !
So, I'm searching someone to play with me on the demo rules, with VASSAL of course, in order to give it a try.
I will buy the PDF of rules and rules annex.
Thanks !
Hi guys,
i'm Antoine, 26 years old, IT, living in France 
I'm fond of space combat games, i started with Full Thrust, but I can't find opponents, so I search for a game playable with VASSAL.
So i start to create my own game, Task Force Sol, but i quickly give up.
Next, I buy Attack Vector, a greeaaaaat game, I love it, much, really love it. There is a VASSAL module but no player interested in, and the forum is almost dead.
So I go to starfleet battles, here there are many players, but the online engine is direct play only (no pbem so with american I have many hours of difference), and it is not free ! More important, there is not newtonian vector based movement. Buy it for nothing ...
And, eventually, browsing the Starship Combat Network Forum, I find a thread about Starmada, and follow the link .....
There is :
Demo rules 
VASSAL module 
Living community 
Cheap game with Vectorial movement 8-)
I want it !!!
So i'm here, sorry for bad english
