Sorry to have dropped off the world for so long. Had some net difficulties. Things appear to be working better now. I will return if you will have me. But if it has been too long and you wish to replace me I understand.

Well, most of the time you were missing was over the holidays, so no biggee. I wouldn't mind another person or two in any case, though.
 

If anyone is curious, except for a slight mess up that was actually in favor of the pirates the sim-battle in my post was played out by the rules to give me some familiarity with the way star ship battles work.

Dave are there going to be a lot of space battles?

That's certainly the intention, though I'm not quite sure how to handle fleet actions yet. Hundreds of capital ships and thousands of fighters is far, far beyond the scale standard SWSE space combat is designed to handle.
 

From what I am hearing the mass combat rules from the Clone Wars Rule Book simply turn ground combat into starship scale combat so I don't think that helps this particular issue.

I think the best way to handle fleet action would be to do it with all the capital ships aside from the Taelros just using the tactical fire option so you don't need to roll out all of their attacks each round.

Probably, it would be best just to give us a limited theater in a large battle to be in, and then just work from there.
