Thanx, fellas. I'll be sure to get my friend to put 'em on here or elsewhere.
I was just worried that I'd innundate you all with a deluge, thats all. As for
Don Tuff wanting to use any of it, that would be mindblowing, obviously. On a
completely unrelated tangent, has anyone ever had a scrap in the upper
atmosphere of a jupiter-style gas world? (Wow, I bet you don't get
questions
like that on the Paris Hilton appreciators m-list. This list rules!)Its
just we did the other day and it made for an interesting fight. The scenario
'mod' was moronically simple: Fail your first engine threshold
role and start taking d3/d6 damage every turn due to sinking deeper
towards
the planets core, fail the second and keep taking D6/D12/worse. No
rocks, just gas clouds and the like. Probably bad physics, yet in the immortal
words of Einstein 'sod it'. We didnt use fighters or ordinance and to be
honest I havent factored them
in thus far, though I'd be fascinated/horrorfied to see how boarding
pods get on. Anyhow, my old sparring partner (Is that best enemy?) Matt Tope
is coming up to my place next week. Some of you might know him and he says
hello. We're
going to fight a vital campaign battle/season finale to the tune of
40,000 points. I think my gaming group fantasises about being Cecil B Demill.
I can
post the fleet lists if anyones interested/ willing to indulge our
stupidity.
Boom, Boom, shake the room,
Jim
