Playing Habits

Islamic Fed and occasionally KV. But I don't get enough FTF time to make
this a valid sample.   Anyone planning to move to Virginia Beach any
time soon? <g>

Between us the Fultons have a good many FT fleets (NSL, FSE, OU, UNSC, SV,
PH, Narn, Minbari, heaps of SFB races, Starblazers, Greys/Daleks) and
though we occasionally use each others fleets we usually stick to our own
fleets. Thus Derek usually plays NSL, UNSC, OU, PH, Minbari or an SFB race;
Lachy is
his SV or Starblazers; I'm FSE, SV, Narn or Daleks/Greys; and Janneke is
whatever she feels like at the time particularly if "it has a girl captain
mummy!!" - the trick being to figure out from the paint scheme/ ship
shape if the captain is female;)

During the course of playing things through to see how they work, we've also
borrowed ESU fleets and have printout icons of NAC ships, but when playing
just for fun we do usually go with favourites.

You're raising an Honor Harrington there, aren't you, Beth...?    ;-)

I have ESU, FSE/PAU, NAC, NSL, Sa'Vasku (mixed GZG/ICE Brood), Kra'Vak
and a small UNSC force(s).

But I often play NAC vs ESU for one-off games because the mechanics are
easier. Both sides have beams, screens, and torps. Both sides have fair
movement. I enjoy using other forces, but time constraints ususally makes
the simplicty of NAC/ESU more attractive.
