Topic: starfleet nova

i recently got klingon and romulon nova armada and have 1 minor complaint and 1 major complaint. the minor was there was a lot of filler (approximatly 34 pages in each) i have all versions of starmada and am a big fan i could see having it in just one of the 2 for people who dont use your product. the major complaint is why include tholians if your not going to include web. that ommission is probably the sillist thing you could do. to say that iwas diappointed ,wouldbe ahuge understatement. it was woorse then call to arms ust saying any ship with web was invulnerable to drones, but having said that i was plwased over all. im sorry one more question why no salidin dd?

Re: starfleet nova

Files is not really the place for questions.
The ships included in each book mirror ADB products.
Tholian webs are in Alien Armada (Nova Edition is listed for next month).

ADB wanted both Klingon and Romulan Armada to be self-contained, hence the "filler".

The ship mix was dictated by existing FC products -- specifically, Klingon Armada = Klingon Border + Klingon Attack; Romulan Armada = Romulan Border + Romulan Attack. Since the Tholian ships in Klingon Border/Attack don't have web casters, there was no need for the web rules.

As Paul mentioned, the web rules are included in Alien Armada (which should be released by the end of this month).

Re: starfleet nova

Dan,

Are you still thinking of releasing a compendium that is all the ships + new rules for SFU, but no "starmada nova" rules?  I think you mentioned that somewhere - a while ago...   smile

Re: starfleet nova

I agree with Marauder.  I'm interested in the update pdf.  After spending money on all the Starfleet expansions, I'm disappointed that I need to spend so much more money to upgrade to the Nova versions.
