Hi all, i hope this reaches the list as this is the first time i've posted...

I was wondering if anyone has done conversions for the Star Blazers anime
series. The wave gun seems to be directly borrowed from this sries so i would
think there is one out the. I know of a star blazers game that has a fleet
sourcebook, but haven't seen it. also been searching the web with no louck.

can anyone out there help me?

thanks.

I have not seen a conversion for FB rules yet, but I have done some
preliminary work on the EDF, maybe I'll finish it this weekend.

G'day Louie,

> I was wondering if anyone has done conversions for the Star Blazers

Derek has done up the Earth Force battleship (one with wave gun) for our
son's fleet and he's halfway through the magna-wave cannon ship (excuse
me if the names of these things are a bit off). He's also got a few books on
the topic, unfortunately they're in Japanese, but the technical pictures do
give you the gist anyway. I gave him the video of the first Starblazers movie
as the other half of his anniversary present so when he's come out of his
stupor I'll ask him if he's got anything else (especially in electronic form
off the net) that may help.

Cheers

Beth

Derek will aldso want the EDF Ship Recognition Guide. It covers EDF, Gamilon
and Cometine ships, organization, tech and background. And,
3-view diagrams of almost every ship from the first two seasons. It's
very, very cool. And the mini game is nice, poorly organized, uses
non-vector movement in aStarfire-style, typical 'wet navy in space'
system that is actually in-genre for Star Blazers, and missiles are
resolved as direct-fire weapons. Other than that it's a pretty good
game.

I just (as in right now) updated Imperial Dispatches with the FTFB
stats for the Gamilon S-Type battleship

He definitely would! May I have its details please?

I can safely say Derek will be waiting eagerly;)

rulebooks, minis and videos for sale herein. Shipping will be expensive, but
the discounts should help make up for it.

Note the SB minis are a bit small, a pain in the neck to assemble (nb. use
accelerant on the glue or forget it), and look very, very good painted.
