Corvus Belli is releasing a new version of Infinity and using Starmada as a faction name.

I hope that worked.

It still might be possible.
IIRC it's a game where each counter represents a squad, not an individual.

I thought that ADB was working on a ground based game called "Federation Marines" or something like that.??

That would be cool !!

Looked at PDF's from several different sources (MJ12, Mongoose, Reli-on and my former employer) and ALL of them "lose" text and images when Adobe is set to black background with white text. I can read everything and see images if it's set to white background and black text. Even though some of the text looks more like medium grey than black.

Sigh

OOOOOh!

I hadn't thought to check. It's been a while since I looked at the PDFs.

Will let you know.

I think I figured out the problem.

I have Adobe set to black background with white text (MUCH easier for my cataract having eyes to see), but the PDF don't like that.

I put it back to normal and the redacted text comes back. I'm just gonna get headaches while trying to read it.

And it looks like the DriveThruRPG copy has been redacted for security reasons.

Big blocks of text are blacked out.

OOOOOH!!   I didn't think about Fire-Linked!!! That would work perfectly for the Multi-Phased Cutter (which I do give the ships multiples of).

Thanks

I used Regeneration. Other "living" ships from B5 did not appear to "heal" during a fight, which is what Regen is.
The Cloaking device represents the ability to Phase into and out of Hyperspace. The Cargo is not actually cargo, but the only way I could get the sheet to calculate the Cloak being better than normal. When Cloaking the ship can not hit mines or asteroids as it is only partially in this reality.
The Multi Phased Cutter 1 through 4 (only goes to 2 on this ship) was an attempt to put the extremely powerful and flexible rules from B5 FA into Starmada terms.

I got rid of McAfee.
No more annoying red flags.
My computer does everything faster now.
Am using AVG and not having all the problems that Crapafee was causing.

Here's a link to the page

There's still no reason for it that I can see. But I am becoming more and more annoyed with McAfee lately.

Thanks for these.  I'll look them over and let you know what I think. I would like to see any other fleets you've done too. I have to warn you that I don't know how long it will take for me to do that though. After all, I've been working on conversions from AoG's Fleet Action rules since The Starmada Compendium!!  lol  :shock:  lol

Just to let ya'll know I'm getting a "red don't go there" warning for this site. But when I go to check it out, I don't see any reason for it.? No spam, no viruses, nothing.

Just a thought from the peanut gallery... but I think the idea of making a Shield 6, 7, 8, 9, or higher harder to penetrate than a 5 is not needed. If you want to allow Shields of 9... then allow them.

But... make PEN rolls of '6' always penetrate.

Thus, if you have Shields 9 and take damage that reduces the shields by one level, then you have a Shield rating of 8... and despite having taken damage, only 17% of PEN dice are going to penetrate... still. Not until they manage to get your below the 5 mark will your shields lose any effectiveness.

This seems the easiest, and least intrusive way of handling this.

In my opinion.

For those that think that Shields 6+ are being ripped off... consider that Piercing +3 will still need a 6 to penetrate a Shield 8+ ship...

I like this.

I don't actually "hate" it, but I have really bad eyesight and I can't afford new glasses until after the new year.
Is there an option for a dark background with light colored letters?
Thanks

I think of a "Frame" as being a "stat line". Each model has its own "stat line" and each weapon has its own "stat line".
