Dramatic SFB: Bringing the band back together

Thu Nov 14 16:33:58 PST 2019

 Don,Yep, I had to set up a start year so chose Y160.
I am not sure if I can change it now ?Matt, am I able to or is Y160 locked in ?
If its locked in, so be it !
Marcel, you are Klingons,Greg, you are Romulans.Michael, you are Kzinti.Don, you are ParaviansRoch, you are Fed PF
Please note for those who plan on joining that the above empires are no longer available in Border Wars as we are not going to have dual empires.
Hopefully I will get the modified rules done this weekend and if not, we will use Matt's rules !
CheersFrank

 Frank, your game has the year set to 160 is that correct? or is that just a default value? It may make some races difficult to play.

Well Y160 Rom has KR K5R for warp and WB+ sublight ships. Y162 gives more warp ships, So yes Roms Y160 Sounds like fun if not Jindarians :)

 Gents,First off, thanks to Matt for getting the Dramatic Campaign going again !I think a bunch of us were suffering withdrawals !
I will run 1 campaign due to ongoing and upcoming projects instead of the 2 I agreed too with Matt.While Matt runs the PF campaign, I will have a start year of Y160, no dual empires and max of 10 [maybe 12 ] players who want to process turns quickly !I am looking for hard core players, not the laid back Admiral. If you feel the pace of this campaign may be too fast/hectic, then its best you do not play.
Admirals will need to be pro active as assignment turns will be  a week long, perhaps 2 weeks when we get 40 borders or so.Completing battles will be given a month or so pending on complexity & number of battles.Admirals will need to be ready to hire Captains to fly their battles should they go on holidays, multiple battles etc.
Also working on rules re crew XP and LOs available. These are always fun to play with !
Also rules to encourage even battles in an effort to get rid of that guy ' Overwhelming Force'There will be some Overwhelming battles but I hope the rules will limit them to a few.
As mentioned, start year is Y160, 2 turns a year, ends last turn of Y175.Of course, this is not etched in stone so can be adjusted as Admirals see fit.
Campaign start is hopefully December 1st  2019.Name is 'Border Wars'. Its on Matt's site now.First come first empire selection.
Stay tuned.
CheersFrank

Many of you have been wondering if and when the campaign will begin again. That time is now.

The Age of PFs a "no holds barred" type of campaign, where nearly any empire is available (no LDR or Orions) and two seats per empire are available. The Starting year is Y179 with 4 turns per year. Initial borders will be historical (where possible), with 1000 BPV to build your fleet and a small income stipend to keep you going. Play will continue until the end of Y183 and the winner will be the one with largest reported empire score (which is an amalgam of Fleet BPV, Number of Borders, and Stockpiled  EPs.)

I'm planning on opening up the first turn somewhere near Thanksgiving (the end of this month), giving you about two weekends to figure out if you want to join the game and what empire you'd like to play. So come on in, click the "I'm interested" button, and send me your empire choice!

Frank is planning on starting a couple of "Fast Play" games, for those who simply can't get enough Pow Pow. I'll let him make his own announcements.
