Posted: Mon Sep 29, 2014 6:03 pm Post subject: Scenarios as PDFs? |
|
|
So I happen to be the type of person that likes to keep my stuff electronically. Having a lot of paper with scenarios/rules, etc. tends to mean I have a lot to carry around and I have to worry about spilling soda on them. Electronically,
I just carry everything on my iPad and don't have to worry about it.
I was thrilled to see the Communiques in pdf and I have already purchased both Academy and the RRB from Warehouse 23. I just bought Battleships attack and Romulan attack and I would love to have the scenarios from both in PDF format. Will these ever be released on Warehouse 23? Or is there a way to obtain them electronically?
Has anyone ever considered making a master PDF of all scenarios, like the Rules are all combined in the RRB or you also have the Master Ship Reference? A Master Scenario book would be of great interest, to me at least. |

On a related note, if you go to the website, and then click on the main Federation Commander block, it has a link to click to see all items available as PDFs.

This link is broken. It doesn't go anywhere. |

It wouldn't be "official" but you could always scan the scenarios you have and compile them into a PDF yourself for your own personal use. _________________ Mike

Don't know if they are still in print or not,
doubt they are PDF's yet,
but there is Captain's Modules S1/S2
Scenario Book 1 and Scenario Book 2.
Someone could start a push to get them into PDFs. |

Good point about scanning my own. I will probably do that.
The Scenario books mentioned are written for SFB, which I have never played and wouldn't have a clue how to translate them properly. Sorry. Thanks for the suggestion though. |

Translaton is easy. There is a 4230 map on line and you can use it to figure out where to put things. Set up according to the SFB set up. If you see a ship you don't have, substitute something that looks to be the same size or mission. Read the special rules. If they don't make any sense to fC, ignore them. Then just start playing FC.
For that matter, a lot of SFB scenarios were translated into FC already. Check the master scenario chart in the free downloads. _________________ The Guy Who Designed Fed Commander

Sorry for necroing this thread, but I was wondering if anymore thought had been put in to a Master Scenario book for both Fedcom and SFB?
Thanks |

We are about to release a book of FC scenarios from CapLog.
There are a thousand SFB scenarios. Compiling the books (multiple books) would be easy; updating the scenarios far more tedious. _________________ The Guy Who Designed Fed Commander

Possible confusion.
The FC scenarios are in FC SCENARIO LOG.
The SFB Scenarios are only in Caplog, but will someday in the future begin to appear in Master Scenario Book Volumes. _________________ The Guy Who Designed Fed Commander

Thanks Steve,
I should have been more specific in my question. I am just getting into FC. I was specifically asking about the SFB scenarios. I have the majority but was trying to find all the CL scenarios in a package or downloadable. I don't want to cut up my CL collection and trying to scan them ususally ends up in one side being distorted due to not lying flat on the scanner bed. Just my OCD coming out. |

It will happen, in due course, just not this month. No promise for June either. _________________ The Guy Who Designed Fed Commander

Well, we did all of the CL scenarios for FC and will shortly do two books that have all of the FC scenarios from Communique.
Module S3 could be scenarios from Captain's Log. I guess. Sounds like an easy thing to do. _________________ The Guy Who Designed Fed Commander

Yes please! I would love the SFB scenarios from CL in a PDF Module S3. I hate having to go through 50+ issues of CLs to find a scenario I want to play. Would love to have them all in one spot. |
