I am pleased to say an updated version is in the works. Note these are evolutionary changes rather than revolutionary.
One consideration is either adding into the rules, or as a unified supplement rules to allow play as/in the Klingon and Romulan empries. I will not be writing epic details or full race/empire books...but there would be enough grist for Far Trek play.
If you have any comments, issues, or suggestions now is your chance.
I do not have a timeline for completion so I appreciate your patience.
Awesome news!
ReplyDeleteIn most rpg's photon torpedo's do less damage than phasers. But if you look at the desctiprions for torps they are supposed to be te heavy weapon of the universe. I was wondering if doubling or tripling the damage factor for them might make them a scarier proposition?
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, I will have to play with it a bit and see! Thanks for the suggestion!
DeleteI've played allot of Starfleet Battles, Full Thrust, and a host of other space based miniature games. In these the photon torpedo is more powerful than the phasers but are usually limited in both range and in the number of shots due to the fact that they are like a cannon shell a physical device rather than an energy weapon run off engine power.
ReplyDeleteThat's how I see them too Don...Once I finish 2 other game designs, Far Trek gets a full attention edit.
ReplyDeleteThank for your feedback!
