Squadron Strike online game today:

Two of the League's new Crockett-class Frigates were sent out to hunt Karthians; the nature of how FTL works makes it critical to have ships stationed in systems to ferry word back to decisionmakers.

Following a hunch, Commander Singh decided to pay a visit to a (comparatively) tame Variable Pulsar…with a Karthian Tempest-class destroyer using it as a landmark.

This is a two-person game that uses the Variable Pulsar rules. It should go fairly quickly. In the event that there get enough players, there will be multiple instances of this scenario.

If you're unfamiliar with Exile's Stars, this is a good scenario to learn about the setting. link

Also, EuroFriendly Squadron Strike at 5:30pm GMT (so, Western European time). link

Can someone take this advert down please.

It's not an advertisement because we're offering something completely for free. We provide ships, teach the game, etc. There's no selling before, during, or after the games.
