Neyuttad Posted March 30, 2005 Author Share Posted March 30, 2005 Well I've read through the Starmada rules and I think we're going to use that for space combat. It's pretty simple especially when one side only has 1 single ship. This is how it's going to work. I will post a hex-map online when there's a combat, the pilot will move the ship around and shoot with his front gun, the guy maning the turrets can gets to select target and shoot, the mechanics will repair/enhance/etc shields, nav system, the medic will heal, and so on. THe better your personal skills, the more likely will you succeed. Use your imagination and logic. How does that sound? You can get the free basic rules here but you really only need to learn how to move and that part is only a few lines long. http://www.mj12games.com/starmada/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neyuttad Posted March 30, 2005 Author Share Posted March 30, 2005 I'd be interested. I've never played Traveller(one of a handful I haven't.) Would reading the Traveller light at least get me more or less up to speed? I've got a doctor character idea kind of forming up. Your character sounds great! We'll see what we can do about it. About Traveller light - it's too complicated lol. This game is going to be based on narrative, not dice rollings so I'm thinking about using the original Traveller. Would that be a problem? I will regenerate a char for you according to the info you provided me if you want. It's quite simple really... at least in this game. As for as I know, I don't think Reaper(or anyone) will allow me to post the rules for character generation online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generate away. No need to break forum rules or copyrights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neyuttad Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Hmm, I don't see much interest in this format. I am not sure if it will work with so few people. Let's wait a maybe, maybe I'll rework the format. Space junkers may not be too heroic to start with as Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CuCulain42 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 *sighs* Well, Ok. I guess I'll wait for the format rework. *walks away kicking a rock* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
