So I'm considering an idea regarding the game and I would like to A- put it down for reference sake, and B- ask for feedback on it. At present, the cards are designed to conform with standard CCG dimensions, that being 2.5inches by 3.5 inches. I did this to facilitate a 'card building' mechanic...

A pair of Dremal DreamMakers. I don't remember the exact models off the top of my head.

So a little bit of an update today. The public libraries around here have opened their MakerLab partnership and as part of that, there is a 3D Printer badge program. It's not particularly special, it's just a program that lets you use a 3D printer. What does this have to do with the TableTop...

I've also been giving some thought as to 'what to do" with all of this. Obviosuly I want people to play the game and I welcome any and all feed back I can possibly get on it. But that leads to a bit of an problem: Namely people getting the materials to play the game, stuff like the cards, the...

I've also gone through and updated the character cards so they have the new 'Ego' stat.

Did some number crunching over the last couple days and decided to put them down on the cards. This resulted in a round of revisions for the ship cards. The F-36B Hornet got an updated ability that allows it cover some extra distance. The Excalibur had some minor fiddling. The Vampire...

So I'm toying with an idea for dealing with capital ships in the game. Here is my thought: When capital ships are involved they will be special missions. Things like 'defend/destroy the carrier' and 'escort/intercept the cruiser/cargo ship' etc. The capital ship itself would be rendered as part...

it's slang for someone who tends to show off and add a lot of flair and pizzaze to their efforts.

So I'm going to kind of hijack my own thread a bit. I've had another project I've been working on for a while: Scratchbuilding. I started with the Excalibur... realized I was in way over my head, took it back a step and worked on the Tallahassee Cruiser... lost the materials for that... and...

See... now all I can think of is the Krant being a gimmick fighter, like the Cobra Condor from the 80's G.I. Joe series.

So I present what is probably the meanest combo and Pilot, ship and load out that you would not want to see in your opponents wing: Yup, that is Prince Thrakath nar Kilranka piloting a Bloodfang C (WC3 version) with Friend or Foe Missiles. He clocks in at a staggering 1075 points with that...

I will happily take whatever you are willing to provide.

For whatever reason, ChrisReid's response prompted me to calculate out the cost of the Broadsword Behmoth. But I didn't care for giving it a couple Tachyon cannons as it's listed as having in Arena. And it struck me: Make it a Super-heavy! Warhammer 40k introduced a Super-heavy rule set...

Thanks for the notes. They'll get factored into the next round of updates. Right now I'm working on building a module to comput average damge from shooting attacks.

Just pumping out cards right now. One part "just making them to make them" and one part "What else do I want to throw in the 'deck' ?"

One of the things I want to do with this game is to have a 'complete universe', by that I mean while it can have expansions that introduce new figthers and new group, it won't get new rules to segment it. Wing Commander 1 figthers should be able to operate in the same system as Wing Commander...

You know, I've never really liked the idea of using the WC1/2 color schemes on post WC3 ships. It just always seemed a bit too cartoony to me. But now that I'm seeing it on the Tigershark, I'm actually liking what I'm seeing.

What? Did you think I was done after the Confed Pilots? Not quite. Here we've got Renegades. Pilots who have left the war and now prey on all sides for their own survival. I came up with the Kilrathi term "Se'akir" to mean "With out clan" or "exile".
