Pretty much what it says on the tin – I find myself at a loss for a game next Monday (29th Sep) and looking for something to do
Would you believe it's been over a year since I had my FT battle fleet out (July last year in fact), so it could probably do with an airing
Scenario / set-up is not yet defined – and I'm open to suggestions on the matter
Two basic options come to mind: 1. A multi-player skirmish a bit like we did last time – around half-a-dozen players each with a small flotilla (around 1,000 points each) 2. A major fleet engagement – basically an all-out punch-up between two battle fleets (say around 2,500 points each) 2.1. as a variation, one or both of these fleets could be an alliance of smaller fleets, thus allowing more than two people to play
So, anybody up for this?

Hello Mike -
I think I played the last time.
If anyone has a spare battle fleet then I'd like to join in for a Multi-Player skirmish.
Needless to say I can't remember the rules.
- Thanks, Matt

Hi Matt, you are of course welcome
I have plenty of ships - happy to let you borrow a few for the evening
Don't worry too much about the rules, they are really simply (it'll take about two minutes to explain them)
The (really) simplified version: 1. Write orders of each of your ships 2. Your ships move as per your orders 3. Your ships blast anything stupid enough to end up in your fire arc
The rest is largely details
Just one all-important rule that you absolutely must adhere to: don't fly into the rocks – you'll lose – badly

Many thanks to Mike and Maurice for a fine game. Nobody flew into anything solid although Maurice and I gave it a good go. Courtesy of a plethora of exploding Warp Cores I appear to have won ??!! See you next time.
- Thanks, Matt
Attachments 1. Mike's Fighters are Launched. 2. I attempt an unadvised Slingshot manoeuvre. 3. Watch that paintwork !!
