Topic: Kalaedinese

I have come into Starmada with Starmada X, which contains some cryptic references to the Kalaedinese but has no background or ship designs from them. Anyone have any background or ship designs from the Kalaedinese?

Re: Kalaedinese

man, I loved these old ships. The Starmada Empire, The Kaladinese and the Arcturians. They seem to have disappeared. I am not so into the new races. like the French, Americans or Germans. I liked much more the original ones.

Re: Kalaedinese

The Kalaedinese were one of the six (!) races from the Compendium-era version of Starmada:

The Terran Empire (i.e., the Starmada)
The Arcturan Federation
The Donegal Alliance
The Kalaedinese Expanse
The S'ssk
The F'Toi

Personally, I was quite fond of the background material for this setting; but until recently I hadn't heard any lamentations about its passing.

I'm working on the future of Starmada -- and I would think that these races will return in some form or another.

The weapon types from the Compendum were done by someone, but where that information went is anyone's guess.  If you like the idea behind one of those races, I say that the conversions would be easy!

By the way Dan.  I miss the Starmada empire...but I know that I am in the minority...

Was there any rejoicing when the minstrel was eaten, then?
