Topic: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

Majestic Twelve Games and Victory by Any Means Games are proud to announce the release of our very first collaborative project: Victory by Any Means: The Starmada Edition.

Victory by Any Means™: The Starmada™ Edition combines two of the most flexible space gaming systems of our day. This book provides the rules links you need to play a campaign using a combination of both Starmada: The Universal Game Of Starship Combat and the Victory by Any Means (VBAM) Campaign Guide. VBAM: Starmada includes:

* A comprehensive method for converting Starmada ship designs to the VBAM campaign system;

* Over 125 new starship designs, taken from The Wars Of The Boltians And Kuissians VBAM sourcebook and converted for use in Starmada;

* Extensive technology rules, building upon those already provided in VBAM and Starmada;

* 10 sheets of counters representing the forces of the Boltian Star League, the Kuissian Empire, and the Terran Union;

* New optional rules for Starmada, including notable starship crews, sensors, and specialized defenses;

...and much more!

VBAM: Starmada is not a stand-alone product; ownership of both Starmada X and the VBAM Campaign Guide is required. Possession of The Wars Of The Boltians And Kuissians sourcebook is also recommended.

Re: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

Since the book requires the VBAM Campaign Guide and the Starmada X rules -- why don't you offer a "Complete Starmada/VBAM Campaign Package" with all three books in one purchase?

Seems a natural.

Re: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

Well, I've ordered both off of Lulu.com (around £38-39). No going back now...

I think that I'll go and lie down now--I think I will be fed to the local cat population by my family when they've heard I've ordered even more items off the internet... yikes

If you hear of someone being killed in Great Britain, that'll probably be me...:D

Re: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

So, you've heard about the latest joint venture between Victory by Any Means Games and Majestic Twelve Games, but you don't yet play VBAM or Starmada? Or are you a proud owner of the PDF copies, but need an excuse to get hold of the printed books?

Well, fear not -- now you too can dominate the galaxy with Victory by Any Means, the modular game of strategic conquest, and Starmada, the Universal Game of Starship Combat.

For a limited time, order VBAM: Starmada, Starmada X: Brigade, and the VBAM Campaign Guide, and save 28% over buying the three separately.

Re: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

Still waiting for mine, being across the Atlantic sometimes really annoys me... :evil:

Re: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

Yeah, and they've screwed up my order. I now have two copies of the Starmada Edition, and no copy of the book I need to use those two. I can't afford another £20  :evil:

Re: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

I needed the VBAM Campaign Guide, but Tyrel (thanks again) sent me a copy of the file. I will also get a free copy of the Campaign Guide (shipping 29th July) so thats alright. smile

Re: VBAM: The Starmada Edition now available!

Personally, I would love to see copies of the counters.....

More ideas for scratch building....LOL
