 October 10, 2014 - 2:16pm | So ship systems often have a cubic meter stat which begs the question... is there somewhere that tells you the cm limit your ship might have? In my space fleet game I need to decide clearly what systems thier assualt scount has in it and I was curious how you determine the limit of cm a ship has. ----------------------------------------------- |
October 9, 2014 - 10:43am | So I know me and my players will to often think of using Dex instead of RS. Other than making up you initiative modifier when is s good time to use RS? ----------------------------------------------- |
 October 9, 2014 - 6:03am | I start these threads to elicit ideas, content, submissions and feedback in part of the magazines but also in part because the collaborative process makes stuff better. I'd like to explore the 2nd Common Muster which is in essence SW1. Fiction, adventures, plot hooks, campaign overview, KH encounters, technical articles (how to handle sathar hypnotism, prospective equipment list for the era, etc) I think it could turn into a themed issue for the magazines but of course it will need content and feed back. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
October 3, 2014 - 2:44pm | The Name that Ship thread has produced 2 magazine articles with one in the works. I'd like to see a 4th make it into the submission cue which will mean a year's worth of content from this series. So what do we think about Trans Travel? A young mega corp with 60-70% of the Frotnier's carrying trade. How did they get so big so fast? Could they have done it by building ships like the Gullwind? or perhaps ships like the large and small freighters included in KHs? I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

 September 29, 2014 - 8:13pm | A fellow frontiersman on the Google+ Star Frontiers community is looking for addtional Basic Rules level adventures, preferably based on the Port Loren map. If anyone has any suggestions for him, jump over and help him out. The relevant thread is at: https://plus.google.com/u/0/112333130367522882211/posts/5c695pwWjBr?cfem=1 Ad Astra Per Ardua!

September 22, 2014 - 10:42am | So finally I kicked off my SF Space Fleet game last night and in the first mission I had to downgrade the ship from a frigate to an assault scout due to loosing a player (which means two crew members in my game ) Anywho the pc gunner was set up as a rocket gunner so I'm merging the two gunnery skills for convenience but really now that I'm actively running. I just feel they shouldn't be seperate. A weapons crewmen i think would have a rounded knowledge of spacefleet's offensive and defensive ship systems. ----------------------------------------------- |
 September 22, 2014 - 7:14am | I think the next system should be Fromeltar. Fromeltar is a G5 class star with two habitable worlds in orbit - Groth and Terledrom. Groth is a Dralasite world (light population) with no moons and one ASS. Terledrom is a Vrusk/Dralasite world (heavy population) with three moons and one ASS and one DSS. Fleshing out the Council and government would be great! (the Pak and Draog Council). |
September 15, 2014 - 10:22am | The species of the Rim did not name their area of space the Rim. It had to be a name applied by someone with UPF centric thinking. So what name is used by the peoples of the Rim to describe the Rim? I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
September 14, 2014 - 6:49pm | I was listenning to a classic rock station driving back from Maine and Bob Seger was playing and the lyric phrase "gypsy wind" from "Someday You'll Accompany Me" jumped out at me. Gypsy Wind is a great ship name. Most likely same class as the Gull Wind. Then I started wondering about other ship names from music lyrics and all of a sudden "Hell's Bells" by AC DC jumped into my head as a pirate ship name. Name a ship, tell us a little bit about it and it doesn't have to be from a song lyric. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
