But I feel that I should first check on the rights issues before I start handing anything out.

You should do a post about your <i>SfW</i> games from back in the day.<br /><br />Ed, unfortunately these rules are long out of print. They occasionally show up on ebay, and you might also try used game stores. Someone on TMP posted that Noble Knight Games had a <i>Starfleet Wars</i> rulebook available. Either way, it's gonna be expensive.<br /><br />The Drune, glad you enjoyed the review. And if you want help with your space combat rules, maybe I can contribute. Regarding your question, defensive screens have no effect on particle weapons, which I would consider torpedoes as compared to missiles. As you can see in part 3 of my review, the game has actual missiles as well.Desert Scribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13862907749003106864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290267799484368042.post-8961763482044299412011-05-07T22:43:37.203-05:002011-05-07T22:43:37.203-05:00Thanks for the detailed review.

I really feel that I need to take a look at these rules before writing the Humanspace starship rules...just need to find a copy.<br /><br />Simplistic movement and simultaneous movement and combat I like.<br /><br />I also like the energy damping and tractor beams and the idea of getting inside the defensive screens but this raises lots of questions. I suppose the screens only block energy not matter. The particle weapons are treated as energy? They don't use missles?The Drunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292082916107221498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290267799484368042.post-61593489084133898312011-05-07T14:28:50.067-05:002011-05-07T14:28:50.067-05:00Are the Starfleet Wars rules still sold anywhere, ...Are the Starfleet Wars rules still sold anywhere, or would we have to look on E-bay to find them?<br /><br />Ed Greenedowar39https://www.blogger.com/profile/10912208499660509384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7290267799484368042.post-28909393545231797722011-05-07T10:56:06.385-05:002011-05-07T10:56:06.385-05:00Great post.

I'd forgotten a lot of the details of the game, but they're starting to come back to me. I'd really love to play this again some day.Sean Robsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16429301144221551751noreply@blogger.com
