You should be able to add KV or Phalon stuff without much difficulty, as
long as your opponent agrees in advance. Note that some items--eg KV
scatterguns--may be considered unbalanced (whether used on KV or
anything else). If you figure out a way to make SaVasku tech mix with Human,
let us know.

Decide what scale you want, make a moon to suit. Anything that blocks LOS also
blocks LOF. Most asteroids wouldn't block unless your ship was snuggled right
up next to one.

QUESTION:Â How any work been done to adding Sa'Vasku?

You mean, like putting out a Fleet Book with SV in it? Like Fleet Book
2?

Advanced drives don't seem to be a problem. I believe though that they are
most appropriate for very high tech aliens, like Babylon 5 Minbari White Stars
and Shadows. I can't think of any human ships in science fiction that zip
about with that kind of agility. Possibly some 'big fighters' like the
Millennium Falcon.

Phalon layered armour: I've been thinking about using this for the Liberator
in a Blakes 7 scenario, but haven't tried it yet.

Others: ack! no!

> QUESTION: Has there been any work done to add asteroids or moons

Around here in Canberra the general rule is that if you can't draw a line
between ship posts without hitting the asteroid, you can't shoot.

> QUESTION: How any work been done to adding Sa'Vasku?

Doesn't human arithmetic work with Sa'Vasku? :-) OK, sorry,
being frivolous. But I'm not sure what you're asking.

cheers,

Might want to send it to the FT Java list instead of the main GZG
