Hi all! When setting up for a game of Battlestations, I usually give the crew their briefing and let them ask a few questions. Of course I do not answer all of...
They can purchase ship modules for 3000 credits each, or requisition them at RQ# 13. Remember each player only gets one requisition at the end of each...
I keep the ship registry constant but allow them to requisition a different ship's registry. This adds a little coherence to the campaign. Admiral Siadek Out! ...
Thanks for the replies guys! This is some good news...they are switching between registry almost every mission...now as I am about to start the GCW campaign, ...
Again me... Is it correct, that the cargo items are supposed to use up 2x2 spaces in the cargo bay? There is a file of cargo items on the official website but...
Bernhard, I have trouble accessing your website. Yes, Cargo Bay items occupy a 2x2 space. If that is full, roll over to the next one or the nearest open space...
I went with the req 13 for modules or registry change. To be honest I don't see a problem with letting them have a big ole ship as early as possible. Just...
Speaking of which, what if players want to downgrade to a smaller ship when they realize their hastily acquired size 8 is just too much for their Ensign pilot...
I'd let them downgrade for free. Admiral Siadek Out! ... From: Fred Schmidt To: battlestations@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, June 04, 2007 4:44 PM Subject:...
I noticed that some missions in Pax Galacticum are missing complexity ratings. Space Bees on page 60 is an example. Was this intentional or just a typo? If...
Most people (apparently the senator and myself included) don't pay much attention to the complexity rating. I would give Space Bees a rating of 2 because there...
Well, I'm a newbie when it comes to GMing Battlestations, so I kind of rely on the complexity rating to help me determine which missions to run. --Greg...
It was a world of fun, and thanks to our singleminded science team and their heroic efforts at warping us out of there just as our fighter cover was looking...
The errata says that Human ships are considered 1 size smaller for all Helm Maneuvers. Does this completely replace the old trait that Human ships get one free...
My understanding is that it replaces the old trait. Searching around on the Yahoo group will pull up some threads. Apparently there was a lot of confusion as...
Hey all, I am running a Battlestation demo at Gamescape North in San Rafael, ca on Monday the 25th and possible one on Free RPG day. While I have some missions...
I strongly reccomend running demos for rank 1 characters. There is enough going on that having two more special abilities to worry about is a bit of overkill....

Actually I'm pretty sure the way it works is that you decide how many hexes you want to attempt to move, calculate the difficulty, and roll. If you make it,...
Fighters get one move attempt per phase. You can select a difficulty as high as you can succeed with. If you succeed, you go that far. If you fail you move...
Let's say I have an upgraded Cannon module. If the module is damaged and then repaired, it still retains its upgrade. Is that correct? If the module is...
