[QUOTE="Koloth, post: 7662079, member: 6706231"] Was introduced to SFB when it was still a 5x7 pocket game. Our group got fairly good at it and started running SFB games at local conventions. We liked to do "Limited Intelligence" scenarios were each side received a sealed envelope that described their ships, bases and victory conditions. Neither side knew at the start what the other side's units or objectives were. One of the best complements we got was in the heat of battle when one of the participants looked up at us and said "I hate you guys, you're making me Think!" It was rather interesting how many people that would happily charge across the map at speed 31 in a open scenario would in a limited intel game decide that speed 4 was much better. One of our members designed the Lord Bishop. Still have the game but we don't get much chance to play anymore. [/QUOTE]
