Nice report, thanks, hope we will se more of them.

DMG 5 weapons ? Are you crazy ?

Yeah ! Picard Maneuver !

Seems good, but I think it needs the possibility of something getting seriusly wrong when attempting it.

I propose :

On the first die roll, a 2 or 3 make the hyperdrive stalls, and a 1 destroy the ship.

If the ship emerge from hyperspace less than 3 hex of any abject (fighter, celestial body, ship ...), it suffers some damage (3 damage, without any help from shields).

What do you think ?

I will play it against my wife who has never played (only one game of federation commander a log time ago).

She take the Fed, I've got the Klink

Turn 1

Going straight ahead at each others, not in shooting range.

Turn 2

Both of us turning to starboard, the distance increase.

Turn 3

She turn to portside, as me but I turn more, we are at extreme range (9hexs).

Bad dice rolls from my disruptors kills only a photon of the Fed's ship, ishe retaliates with all weapons (Ph1 and photons), destroying a disruptors and three phasers.

Turn 4

We are closing to 2 hexs.
Catastrophic dice rolls fail to inflict serious damage to the Feds, only a few hull hits and one Ph1 destroyed,  and even without photons (reloading), she destroy my last disruptors, some phasers, killing 50% of my engine and shields and making rampage in my hull.

Tour 5

<IMG src="http://img4.hostingpics.net/thumbs/mini_783242Tour5.jpg"></IMG>

Previous speed was 5 and I have only 3 engines rating left, I can only slow a little.
She knows that and slides just a little to keep me in her line of fire.
The phasers won't be needed; the photons cut my ships in two.

Conclusion :
I think my D7 design is bad as the two ships have the same combat rating but the D7 seems outclassed (or my wife is an hidden expert space tactician, who know ?)
I will correct the stats and try again !

Next time I would take several D7 :

PS : Sorry for bad english

:shock:

Are you sleeping sometimes ?

Hi Ken !

As an SFB/FC player, I'm ok to help you with designing these two ships with SM:AE rules, and even make some duels with my partner.

Send me your email by Private message please.

I love Attack vector, you know me, I was haunting your forums few months ago, but my game partners doesn't like high complextiy games. 

PS : Do I win an SS copy ? 

Have you done them with the excel shipbuilder ? If yes, can you share the excel file ? It would be great.

Where can we buy ????

Wow ! Very impressive work !

I will use my old B5Wars counters and map to play with that, thanks a lot !

I think that     "That game from that company you can't nominate", (tgftcycn thereafter), will be a nice adaptation for quantum legions.

If we can cretae a non commercial module vassal with pictures of it, it would even be legal I think?

And I cannot buy the PDF, the cart stay empty after click on "add to cart".

Pleaaaaase, I want give you some money !!  :mrgreen:
