Topic: Ilnaari Trade Federation/u'Lakor'ai Union

These are two races I've created which Im planning to fight a 'campaign'--not a VBAM campaign, but more a set of scenarios where the result of the first one dictates the general setting of the next one. The starting setting is two emerging interstellar powers encounter each other for the first time (in fact, the first alien species either has encountered) and the meeting hasn't gone well.

First, the Ilnaari Trade Federation. I visualise them as being very sleek, although not streamlined. They evolved from the first ITF warships which were freighters. The ITF, from the short war that preceded the ITF formation, believes in the value of cargo and almost every ship carries cargo. They have a novelty tech item, that of the Nuclear Cannon...

As you can tell, the ITF is not a fighter-heavy race, relying instead on ship-board firepower. The Nuclear Cannon is found only on dedicated warships, but the fighters are found on the less hardcore warships. The Zularic is a fast torpedo cruiser that is rarely seen, as it does not fit well into the line of battle, but it provides an extra bite for some convoys if the larger cruisers and war cruisers are not available.

Now, the u'Lakor'ai Union. These warships are radially symmetrical, which is a lesson they learned in a civil war before reaching space. They believe in heavy torpedo salvoes--however, their torpedoes are not as powerful as one might expect...

The uLaU is a great believer in letting the enemy come to them, hence the slower speeds for all except the destroyer, patrol cruiser and corvette. They are not fighter-heavy, relying instead on their torpedo salvoes.

So, what do you think will happen when these two forces fight? I fear I might have disadvantaged the uLaU slightly, so I'm asking here first.

One note about hyperdrives: exploration cruisers have two hyperdrives, a standard one (which is on all vessels) and an emergency one, which allows them to get out of the system if hostile forces are around. Standard hyperdrives take a day to warm up, so in most scenarios forces won't be able to escape apart from off the map.

And just in case anyone wants a go with these ships, heres my first scenario:

First contact

The ITF and uLaU encounter each other in the Elnozti system, and first contact doesn't go too well...

Set-Up: Place a size-2 planet in the centre of the map. One asteroid, placed five hexes from the centre of the planet towards one of the neutral map edges.

ITF: 3 Eulanic exploration cruisers

uLaU: 2 E'Lezraz exploration cruisers</t>

Re: Ilnaari Trade Federation/u'Lakor'ai Union

I've decided that the uLaU probably are slightly disadvantaged with their torpedo design, so I quickly modified it and heres the new version:

Fission Torpedo: (15), 4/7/5+/0, Area-Effect, Piercing (Seeker)

It does mean that the two torpedo cruisers will lose a full salvo each, but these slightly faster and more effective torpedoes means that they'll be able to go toe-to-toe with the larger ITF vessels like the Lusavic and Kelaric, instead of launching their torps at smaller vessels with weaker shields as they'll be the only vessels worth targetting.

Re: Ilnaari Trade Federation/u'Lakor'ai Union

I've been busy, and designed two more races. Hopefully I'll be putting these races up soon, but not today as I have to log off pretty soon. The new races are the Z'enekel Imperium and the Thezili Belt Union

Re: Ilnaari Trade Federation/u'Lakor'ai Union

I've been re-working these in light of the Rules Annex (mainly, the Catastrophic weapon trait is a must for the ITF main weapons) so I'll be posting those up ASAP

Re: Ilnaari Trade Federation/u'Lakor'ai Union

Apologies:

1) The length of time to post revised vessels
2) I decided to not use the Catastrophic trait for the Nuclear Cannon after all
3) The vessels are not in Drake notation, but I was writing these up and I just decided to post them as-is

At long last, the Thezili Belt Union. I envisaged them as a militarised miner force, hence the three 'miner' ships. They also really like their Wingtip Turrets...

A quick note regarding the rules I'm using for this setting:

B.1 Armour Plating
B.2 Auxiliary Services
B.4 Countermeasures
B.5 Fire Control
B.6 Hyperdrive
B.7 Marines (boarding pods, not teleporters) (uses Boarding Combat rules in Rules Annex)
B.16 Flotillas
C.1 Extended Accuracy
C.2 Expanded Arcs
C.3 Expanded Ranges
C.4 Weapon Traits
C.5 Ammunition
C.6 Dual-Mode Weaponry
D.5 Pivots
E.1 Damage Control
E.2 Directed Damage
E.3 Explosions
E.7 Critical Damage
F.1--F.4 and F.6--F.9
G.1 Asteroids
G.2 Black Holes
G.5 Planets

Independent Fighter Flights:

ITF: Lihfor (meant to represent an armed shuttle)
uLaU: E'Khen
ZI: R'ulajil
TBU: Lohizi (meant to represent a very small independent miner--they would be commonly seen with Xylodirs and Xulazils)</r>

Re: Ilnaari Trade Federation/u'Lakor'ai Union

Just realised that, for some reason, I had not calculated the actual cost for the Accelerator correctly--instead of the RF mode being an equal-SU cost to the Attack mode, instead it was smaller. A fix has now been introduced--the RF mode increases its ROF to 4, and loses the No Range Modifiers in exchange for Non-Piercing (2), which is not a range-based trait and is thus not affected. It does make the RF mode less effective at mid-range, especially against fighters (only 16% chance of a hit vs 33%), but is actually as effective at short range, plus has double the ROF, which would make sense for this weapon mode being a last-ditch anti-fighter weapon.

EDIT: I noticed that somehow (most likely a copy/paste error that passed me by) the Raider Ketch had an engine value of four, when in fact it had a value of three. This has now been corrected.
