Federation Commander

Scenario Book #1, and, later, #2. Or, by their callsigns, Modules S1 and S2.

These were a more permanent printing of scenarios that were beta-tested in the magazines. They didn't collect the scenarios in the R Modules or elsewhere.

I'd thought of it as a partially-held-in sneeze, but that's not appropriate in public, and it takes a lot of practice not to sound awkward going from *kz* to -inti.

Paul Franz, on the Star Fleet Online talk show, does say it as "zinti."

"The D-6 has four doors on this side, and the D-7 only has two!"

"No, no, no, it's the other way around! You've got it all backwards!"

At the risk of sounding silly, I was thinking of drilling a hole through each box of the ship card and marking their status with a peg. I don't know if there's a source for a large number of pegs; I imagine the best would be with a domed top and a thin stem, so possibly you could use thumbtacks.

I ...

The "Intruder Alert" general scenario reminded me that the Gorns encountered mind controlling plants in one historical scenario, and the Federation a zombifying virus in another. These, like Gremlins in yet another scenario, (who, once fhe panic is passed, should be admitted to merely be another ...

Interesting, SG31 is "Intruder Alert!" I think a man-sized (or whatever) monster you chase around your ship using only the SSD. SL1 is of course the famous Juggernaut. I'd have to pull down the Logs to figureout the rest, and bow up-to-dats that list goes.

Yeah, it's under "Downloads" on the Master Index link. Just search the player resource page for "monster". It's up-to-date to C4 and Y1, whichever came most recently.

Just note that the boarding diagrams put the neck transporter in the starboard area, more easily accessed from that shuttlebay or wing than from C Hull boxes. (The probe is port.) The SR conversion from the CL puts two transporters there, but the commando ship has all four neck transporters ...

I can see wanting the impulse engines on the outboard to direct the exhaust past the aft bubble, but, considering ships can go backwards on impulse, there are probably force field tricks that make that a lesser concern.

I've been reading this on my phone, and missed scrolling sideways to see your ...

Less concern about rooms in the bubbles gives me less concern about rooms in the center hull. I kept thinking that the obvious 160/160/160 crew split be weighted more towards the bubbles, and had been trying to diplomatically compose a request that the CL deckplan be slightly -slghtly- different to ...

A few thoughts:
When the CL loses the rear bubble, they also lose two wing phasers and one spare shuttle. I suppose this represents some items in the rear bubble moved into the aft hull (formerly center hull) and crowding them out.

If I scaled the plasma-G from the Snipe deckplans right, it takes ...

The only pre-paint model I've found in physical stores is one D-7. I hope this means they sold well. The D-7 measures four inches, a "head" longer than the Matt Jefferies comparison drawing:

"I have never worked out the purpose of the small domes Turner places either side of the launch tubes."

Stand Clear lights for close traffic. :)

On the filming model from the '60s they covered the screw heads that held on that panel; the effects technicians would remove it to refill the pellet ...

Over on the legacy board they've announced a solution to a formatting problem in the history of the SFB Universe.

There's a downloadable PDF of a year in two versions to show how it works.

I'd thought submitted scenarios were categorized by year, empires involved, and ship types to quickly find one that covered a subject.

Anyway, grabbing the modules within easy reach, I get this:

Y135, SH121
Y143, SH35
Y145, SH122
Y152, SH42, SH47
Y153, SH123
Y155, SH48, SH49, SH50
Y156, SH8, SH51 ...
