Hydran ...

All, due to conditions beyond my control, I am forced to sell off all my FC minis and material.

I have started posting squadrons of ships on ebay in 6-10 ship lots. I will continue until I run out of ships. Currently posted are a Squadron of Neo-Tholina, Tholians, Kzintis, and Klingons.

I have ...

4) Try a location map

There is no try. You have no option when using plasma races. They MUST be used on a location map. 4J "Always use a location map (8A1) instead of a fixed map with plasma"

On a fixed map plasmas tend to dominate. On an open map, plasmas really can't win unless their opponent ...

It doesn't however, so bring out the DWP's and CAW's.

actually it does.

No more than 1/3 of a fleet amy be NEO, nor more than 50% of a fleet may contain web casters.

I don't imagine you are going terribly fast, either. With only 5 hexes in a strand, you probably don't want to move very far or very fast. Especially in a duel.

Or are you zipping around after all?

The web tactics Pat et all are referring to are based around squadrons of ships of 450 points ...

thing is to put out a 5 string full power web is quite energy consuming too to be honest. to do multiple 5 string full power webs wont leave much energy for firepower, shield boosting etc unless stationary.

What you may not be considering, is that using web properly, you will be using heavy ...

Drones do not hit their target until after their movement occurs in a sub-pulse.

The only way a drone will miss if fired in the same hex as it's target is if the target is moving at 24+1.

On sub-pulse 1, the target moves, it is now at range 1. On sub-pulse 2, the target and drone move. However ...

Wow, go away for a weeks vacation and look what happens.

After reading the threads, I still am baffled as to why EM is being changed as it was not broken to begin with, even considering Paul Scotts tactic, but if you are going to change EM, why not just make ALL EM declarations occur at the ...

In FC I'd be interested to see how well it would do against other ships. Might have to try one in our next game.

It's a blast to play. In fleet Scale, it is 55 points, so 2 are the exact same point value as a Klingon C-7.

I've played that match up many times, and it is running about 50/50..it's ...

Also check out the game play PDF, which walks you through a quick game..well, part of one anyway..

The Fed FF has always been a beast of a ship. Probably the best Frigate in the game.

I guess folks were feeling sorry for the Federation pig turn modes and threw them a bone :)

It's not a big deal in SFB though, as folks tend to use the fleet construction rules, so you won't have more than a ...

It is: (ship system + frame damage) / 2.

Probe does not count in fleet scale (as it is not a "box").

But Fleet scal ships have probe launchers, they have ammo tracks and they can be hit on the DAC..Why wouldn't they count toward cripple status?


If a ship is damaged to this level, but can ...

yea, that's a mistake on the player playing 2 ships. You stack them and run them as a single 'unit' where possible. Then yo are talking a whole different ball game.

Later in the game, splitting up forces can be advantageous, but usually not at the start.

In 2-v-1 games, remember that the single ship only has one shield you have to blow through.

Also in the mix is the fact that each ship rolls seperately for volleys, so you have twice the chances to hit critical rows on the DAC.

Then there is protecting systems with Frame. With 2 ships, you can ...
