I was thinking, dangerous i know, about the new regions setup. How about a new land type called islands? may have one for every 2 ocean? also may need multiple resources per region now.

Lol, nah, the only bad question is the unasked one. :bs

The Island terrain type all ready exists.

And yeah I was thinking of that to. Maybe three per region. When you see the new planetary sheet let me know what you think, and how many resources a region you think they should have. :AH

BTW, I REALLY like the look of the sheet now with the new format. :ac



Cheers, Þórgrímr

The new terrain sheet format is neater and easier to read. :AH but, it has no rum ration noted for the albion navy and army troops. That may effect morale! :bs

If you have any questions on the planetary sheet just give a shout.

Lol, unfortunately we do not have access to the sugarcane resource, and the lads are not too keen on drinking gin. But the wenching while in port is still a Royal Albionese Naval tradition. :ac

Maybe make them a seperate category all their own that automatically ups the IUU maint cost by one, along with any other maint it may affect?

lets make sample sheets showing how everything is filled out. These sheets can be a little confusing to the new player to figure out.

Now that I have the data transferred to WoTG I am going to try and update the rules ASAP. :AH

Guys, do me a favor, check your areas to see if any data was missed. If it was I will get it ASAP.



Cheers, Þórgrímr

Ok, as a small update, I have removed the Psyker stuff to the expansion that has been discussed.

Added the new items for pop growth.



Cheers, Thor

Hey buddy, "(see section [4.0] Movement), " should read [5.0] !

[6.5.3.2] Transport

Unlike Armies, Navies usually move between continents and worlds under their own power (see section [4.0] Movement), but in the cases of ships or disabled vessels a lift or a tow can occasionally be required. Towing a disabled ship can only be done by a vessel of the same or larger Type, and slows the towing ship.

Okay, we have the Silos cap to up the number of missiles a ship can take and converts the existing DP into missile spaces. Now, where do the missiles come from? and do we need a sample?

Missile sizes are listed on the missile portion of the naval doc. Most ships will carry single stage rockets, which model all the attack and defense missiles used on warships. So yeah, you will have to build yer missiles and stock up your ships. :bs
