[net.games] Star Fleet Battles?

jj@rabbit.UUCP (05/30/84)

A question, actually:
1)  Has anyone heard/seen the second part of the commanders rule book?

Other than that, what sort of rules do folks use for ship balancing 
modifications in campaign/pick-your-own scenarios?  We've used the 
standard VP system, and also tried modifying ships a bit, and each
seems to present different disadvantages, depending on the difference,
and the players.

According to the latest blurb from the Armadillo Design Bureau, the
Star Fleet Battles Volume II will be released in June at Origins '84
(June 21-24, Dallas, TX). As I understand it, this will be a remake
of the original SFB including the 3 expansion sets. They will sell an
update for the Commanders Rule Book for a "limited time". No prices
were given.

Most of this information comes from the latest issue of Nexus magazine
from Task Force Games.
