Topic: Fighting the General War in Unity

Hello all!

I have dreamed of playing out the General War at the tactical level since the late 1980s. This has always been obvious madness using SFB, but I had hopes for Federation Commander. While it may prove possible in FedCom, I have since become enamored with Starmada Unity.

The General War kicks off, of course, with the Lyran invasion of Kzinti space. To my great frustration, the first battle of the first scenario of the General War cannot be played without Distant Armada Unity. I've seen mention of its imminent release several times, but can't seem to pin down an actual estimate.

Is my white whale anywhere on the near horizon? I must have it!

Well I have not seen Distant Armada for Unity, but there are versions done for Admiral and Nova rules.  The are over at http://www.starfleetgames.com/starmada.shtml

Though I do see that Captain's Log 53 has an article about Starmada Unity.

Thank you for the link. I didn't know that site existed. Now I can keep a watchful eye on things.

Recently, Daniel said that Distant Armada Unity was 90% finished. See below. I've been looking forward to it as well.

It's just a question of finalizing/reviewing the ship designs, and then it's off to ADB for publication!

Re: Fighting the General War in Unity

Looking forward to Distant Armada too.

I just picked up the PDFs for the other three Unity SFU supplments today.  Nice stuff there!  I love the adaptation of the base Starmada rules for the SFU ones - most notably the power rules.  Think it might be time to dust off my SFU minis I got for ACTA and play this stuff again!
