Yep!

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 15h

could def do a LOT MORE ships with this method. Awesome 👌

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 15h

Very much agree. Great solution

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 15h

GREAT IDEA with the refitting ship cards

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 15h

If you have the room its always good to have them already on it to expedite play...what other option were you thinking?

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 21h

I agree it does look VERY COOL

I love that this is taking off.

Trek Captains is my love letter to the 1980s fandom of Star Trek I never got to join. The FASA years, Trek 2, 3, and 4 in theaters, the comics were giving us a faux TV series of the period and fans were wearing monster maroons. This game is set in that time.

TrekCaptains. Thought I'd take a quick snapshot from my files of all the Fed ships I've modeled for this game. Representing a rash of craft from the canon to the popular (FASA, 14' east), to the fanon (Jackill's, etc), to the obscure (Oddball weird shapes from the comics) to some of my own.

Perfect

Tarot size more or less?

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 1d

easier to put it together too (pnp)

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 1d

I like how these cards look. Great info in them

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 1d

oh wow..this is cool! Are these 3D renderings? (sorry about the noob question 😅😅😶)

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 1d

I see Alexander's Morale has shattered. Need to reroll next turn

My 15 minutes of fame! An awesome article on the Dawn of Cities classroom game I've been developing in the Cincinnati Country Day School Scroll this month!

and thats what I like!

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 3d

*too

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 3d

but if the legendary crew are pretty standard with other more 'generic' recruiters then that would not be necessary (Im also going to RPG with these suggestions i know! 🤣🤣🤣)

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 3d

unless there were less experienced versions "green" of the same crew and then you could work them up to versions we all know and love 😆

Erich @battlingboy.bsky.social · 3d

Really enjoy how every game session is so eventful!

I do like being able to 'upgrade' to the original crew but I can see how a lot of people would also enjoy working with the more known crews from the get go...🤔🤔🤔

Not sure how overpowered it would be to start with all these legendary crews...

Looking great!

Welp, here it goes... my Patreon is up!

Right now it doesn't have much on it as I figure things out, but if you wanted a look at WZ Shogun it's up in the paid area for alpha access.

I'm not offering anything special for the different tiers, just base access.
