Hi all,
I've had all my SD books out this weekend statting up from SW:The Force Awakens ships since I have all these nice die-casts to game with (far ahead of my slow-moving classic SW painting project). A few fairly random questions came up as I was going over the books and QRS sheets:
- How do Lone Wolf and Fanatic work in practice in terms of obligating the pilot to not support his wingman and continue an attack (Lone Wolf) or mandating an attack on the closest target (Fanatic). The Counting Coup bit of Fanatic I get, though I'm not really looking to use that with SW:TFA, but I have a lone wolf style character (the horse-headed alien X-Wing pilot from the movie) to give some character to.
- In a few places the same TSR value is given "less than" that value or "less than or equal to" that value, I presume it's the latter. So a TSR 14 weapon can only target ships with drives of 14 or less.
I think that's it for now, off to pick up a few more supplements for SD that I don't have, to get the weapons tech for other projects.
Besides classic SW and SW:TFA, I have Battlestar Galactica, Wing Commander, and Starblazers projects in the work. For Starblazers I have the mecha-colle (sp?) EDF fighters, but need to make up my own opponents since as far as I can tell the traditional ones aren't available in the same scale. I have some Reaper CAV fighters that match the scale and some Shapeways stuff that should work.
