Teaching game of Squadron Strike: Traveller today at 1pm ET. (1700 GMT/UTC) No familiarity with the game necessary.
Solomani Rim War playtests at the same time. Should be another set of games of "The Imperium Strikes Back." The play balance is getting fine-tuned, so we shouldn't see blowouts. Trying to shoot up a space station that's orbiting a moon at 3 hexes per turn is an interesting challenge.
"Open fire!"
"Oops. The station's behind the moon …"
One Madrid CL and one Dingir DD (Fighting Ships of the Solomani Confederation) vs. 3 Midu Agashaam DDs (CT Supplement 9, etc., etc.).
