One of those awkward things about space travel is that you need to bring everything with you. You have no air, no food, and critically, no power. Fortunately, being a member of a spacefaring civilization does give you a few options as to how you can provide power for your ships. As always, a ship… Continue reading Reactors and Power Systems
Fleet Management
One of the more challenging things in running an empire with more than one empire is keeping track of where every fleet is. While the odds of two individual ships (even two full survey flotillas) meeting in deep space is vanishingly small, the odds of meeting at a warp point increase substantially. Most fleets also… Continue reading Fleet Management
A little loot
So, Zazzle had a nice cyber monday sale, and I just had to pick up a little Starfire™ loot. Nothing really fancy, but some nice and practical stuff. A new mousepad, a coffee mug, and a bumper sticker. My first bumper sticker, actually. But hey, I'm a big Starfire fan, so it seems appropriate 🙂

This was far back enough that I was using running totals and paper for everything. Yes, I was running a… Continue reading First Contact War Playtesting
October 2018 SitRep
October's come and gone, and it's not exactly been the most productive month I'm afraid. Real life has, as usual seen fit to make itself know and I spent a lot of additional time getting things straightened out at work instead of being at home writing. Since I'm not making the megabucks with my keyboard,… Continue reading October 2018 SitRep
