1) Posted at the same time, but it looks like that tail gun is one of the blaster cannons. 2) Hah, you're right. The turrets DO adjust separate of the wings. While I'm not 1005 sure the laser cannons do(at least one of the two sets of weapons on the wings are fixed), we could just run with it...

Heh, right. If you guys would like, I can edit the max ranges into the stats for the Vortext for ease of use. Righty. Well, some level of abstraction is just necessary. You'd have to do the same thing with facing, anyway, this abstract way just kind of makes it more obvious. But yeah, a...

If you guys REALLY want me to make a quick battle grid, I can, but my avoidance of it is mainly due to the large gaps involved, even with the adjustments for starship scale. That's why I went with the currently most-important comparison in the linear map of where the TIEs are in relation to the...

Combat Info:Consider the Force Point not used. Even without it, the 29 actually increases the shuttle's speed by 2 squares rather than just 1. For the purposes of keeping this mostly sane, we'll jump into initiative order for the ships. So, we'll go by the ships and consolidate actions that...

I'm just glad it looks to be keeping the same formula. Part of me was a bit worried they'd go full on MMO with it.

I heard yesterday that a bunch of guys from Aspen Comics suddenly left the con in Chicago. My first thought was things had gotten worse for Turner, but I didn't even consider that it would have gotten this bad. :(

While I agree to a point, I know people that have read Watchmen with no comic background beyond the very basics and still seen it as an amazing work. Much is made of how Watchmen is a comment on comics themselves, which it is, but understanding that isn't necessary to appreciating the work. I...

Alrighty, as previously mentioned, stats for the Vortex are up in the character threat now. Its sparse, and should just be the necessary stuff. If I missed something important you guys need, let me know. Otherwise, only thing worth mentioning is the stats are minus Pilot skill, so its really...

Vortex Lambda-class Shuttle Crew: 6 -Pilot, Copilot, Navigator, Gunner, Comm Officer, Engineer Passengers: 20 Cargo: 80 tons; 2 months consumables HP: 120; DR 10; SR 25; Threshold 76 Defense: Ref 14, Fort 26; +12 Armour Speed: Fly 12 Squares (850 km/h max), Fly 4 Squares (starship) Hyperdrive...

If it makes you feel better, if I had someone there that was going to betray you, they'd have no qualms about shooting you the in the face. ;)

Too bad there wouldn't have been time for anyone to see it before the boards went down. :p And even then, would have been better if, say, one of the captives you freed shot one of you in the back and dropped you in one shot. Course, I prefer my cliffhangers evil and cruel in addition to worrying.

It really does look great. The only thing about it that makes me sad is no Sakura, but oh well. I really do hope it doesn't end up being absolutely terrible.

That's a really cool feature.

Give me a bit, but sometime between now and when we get combat rolls going I'll post an abbrieviated version of the Lambda's stats over in the character thread. Thanks to the board change, old links don't work without adding '/forum/' in between the .org and showthread, so any of my old links to...

Combat Info:Kay's stun on the Imperial is enough to, finally, bring that guy down. So that's that. Returning to the ship's hold, Kay put one final stun bolt into the remaining Imperial. After everything he had taken, it was finally enough to cause him to drop his blaster pistol and then slide...

As many others have said, looks great. Well done. :)

Looks like we're alive again! I'll get a post up in a little while and we'll get back on track. :)

Well, I WAS going to update right now but with the upcoming downtime I'd rather my post waited until we're back with EN2. See you guys on the other side. :cool:

Its especially painful for those of us in the world that find math to be the language of pure evil. ;) Honestly, when it came to the Revised rules, I always ended up simplifying it to run starship combat like character combat anyway. It took some interesting tweaks and omissions to do, but made...

If you're okay with a digital version, all the seasons are now up on iTunes for not-so-horrible prices. At least better than some of the insane amounts of the DVDs if you can even come across them.
