Tried reffing for the first time yesterday. I am sure I blew lots of things :^) I spent like 20 minutes hurriedly crawling all over the manual and couldn't...
Alan! First off, congratulations on running a mission. You made the right choice to make rulings on the spot and check later rather than spend too much time ...
Hi all, I just got my copy of the basic game in the mail a few days ago and I am very excited so far :) I'm going to be runnign a game with my local group...
I ran into a similar problem -- except everyone wanted to be the pilot. My solution? I let 'em. 4 of the 5 players in one session rolled up pilots, and spent...
Just throwing in my two cents, if that's okay. I've definitely run into this. The game strikes everybody in our group as mostly combat-oriented, so everybody...
In the cannon damage diagram (i dont have the page in front of me) it shows the beam penetrating through the entire row of modules. Does this always happen? ...
It's important to note to the players that each of the four professions are not only important, but vital to accomplishing the mission. Tell them if they all...
Hi, the dutch group just completed their 7th mission and despite finishing off the last of the terrorists were not able to turn the ship before plunging into...
The beam always penetrates a number of modules deep equal to the gun power of the firing ship. The shields power of the target ship will mitigate the ...
In our group, we're luck that there's usually a few players that ask what other people are running so they can decide based on the crew's needs. But here's my...
How about this? The main question again is: is it too good to pass up (unlikely) or is it too weak to be ever taken (possibly)? "Warp Expert: A Warp Expert may...
Interesting idea, but we try not to mix or nullify skills. Bots sort of broach that, but no skill checks are additive between two disciplines. Maybe that...
... Did not know about the philosophy regarding skills additions. In that case a whole lot easier of course to handle it as above. Quite similar to "Engine...
... Oh yes, most definitely. In fact, my tentacles blush with embarrassement as I have a series of similar questions prepared for the group... perhaps I will...
Okay, more than 11 questions, but I liked the triple 1. A) Overwatch 1) Is it possible to make overwatch dependent of OCC or similar events? E.g.: "I go on...

Ah woe am I, forsaken to ask questions... Anywho, I was curious, in the book under bookkeeping its says that 1 point of speed is lost as well as 1 power from...
At the end of every Round, all ships slow down by 1 (bookkeeping, p62), unless they're in orbit (p46). Ships in orbit remain steady at 1. If you're referring...
I read there will be a new skill and profession in PAX, the diplomat. How "essential" is this profession? I ask from the perspective of a small crew (3) which...
Actually there is no 'Diplomacy' per se in Pax. The Pax Galacticum missions are mostly things like puzzles, space hazards and exploration in a living nebula. ...
