the first turn ends all that happened was the ships moved up their full speed. the swordfish also turned 45 degrees to allow it's guns a better shot depending on where the UPOE moved next turn

second turn after first: player one stinger mk 1 was destroyed along with 2 UPOE fighters. the swordfish had 2 attacks. batteries (multiple guns that pretty much operate as one.) are on both the left and right sides.

this concludes the battle

I can move my models to the factory website if you want to download them. I am currently working on my flagship and i am going to revise my light cruiser. I am not done yet, ok? Give me until the end of the month.

i understand completely.

all i was trying to accomplish here was to try and get a first version for the rules. as well i used your units because your the only one who's got any units.

MAYBE some indications of what happened in each photo would help.

Ok. Sorry i jumped to a conclusion.

And yeah, a writeup would help.

Congratulations on being the first to post a microspace battle. I'm trying to get my own played, but it's difficult to teach other people the vector rules.

it's both microspace and LDD! i did 2 things for the first time in one go!


the basic idea of the rules is as follows:

after set up you each take turns. first move then shoot. if you hit place a red marker or something on the hit ship and the are wich it was hit. after both players turns end then you do damage and crap.

weapons: COST AP ATK ACCURACY RANGE
L GUNS 10 1 2 2 16
GUNS 15 1 3 2 16
H GUNS 20 2 3 2 24
BOMBS 20 3 2 2 4
TORPEDOES 30 3 3 4 24 A TURN
L BATTERY 5 PER GUN 1 2 * 16
H BATTERY 10 PER 2 3 * 24

* = FOR EVERY GUN IN A BATTERY ROLL A DIE. A 6 IS A HIT.

WEAPONS CANNOT ATTACK SHIPS WITH A HIGHER ARMOUR THAN THEIR AP ANY EXTRA AP (AP 1 ARMOUR 0) IS A BONOUS TO ATK

ARMOUR

SMALL (FIGHTERS BOMBERS) 1
MEDIUM (CORVETTES DESTROYERS) 1
LARGE (BATTLESHIPS CERTAIN AREAS ON CRUISERS AND CARRIERS) 2

ENGINES
+1 COST PER SPEED

EACH ENGINE STUD = 1 THRUST. THIS IS HOW THRUST BECOMES SPEED

IF UNIT IS:

FIGHTER THRUST X4 = SPEED
CORVETTE/DESTROYER/CRUISER/ETC THRUST X3 = SPEED
BIG THRUST X2 IS SPEED
HUGE (SPACE STATION LIKE) THRUST = SPEED

example

UPOE fighter. 4 engine studs. 16 speed

Swordfish corvette 4 engine stud areas 12 speed

i'm not the best at explaining things but i hope this helps.

these are only battle rules and really are just meant as a prototype

Ok.

What?

You know, just forget it. As long as you do it right...

Do you do everything in LDD??

no i had a quickwar and i have pictures but i also have camera problems sorry

If you post rules again can you underline some stuff and not make everything caps, its really annoying.
I love the rules but it just took me a while to read them
