A Call to Arms: Star Fleet Book 1.2: Civilian Ship Roster Card Pack Is Available

The ships presented here are intended to represent abstractions of dozens of different (but similar) designs in use by all fleets for a variety of functions. Form follows function, and as these ships (for the most part) are cargo haulers, they can functionally be divided into these types. Outwardly, the various "Class-One Small Freighters" may look very different, but their ship rosters would be nearly identical. After all, a cargo ship needs cargo, enough engines to move them at a steady economical speed, a big enough hull to contain the crew, perhaps a phaser or two for self-defense, and whatever tractor beams and transporters are needed to facilitate cargo handling.

All of these ships might be owned by a civilian crew or corporation, or by a government at any level. Also included in this pack are two generic military bases.

We are pleased to announce that the next of our play aids for ACTASF has been released. The Civilian Ship Roster Card Pack includes all of the civilian ships in A Call to Arms: Star Fleet Book One, Revision Two. It also includes the generic forms of the mobile base and battle station.

The Civilian Ship Roster Card Pack is available from the following:

Wargame Vault: wargamevault.com/product/144332

DriveThru RPG: rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product/144332

We hope you enjoy it!

Wargame Vault announces the availability of:

A Call to Arms: Star Fleet, Book One, Revision Two

A Call to Arms: Star Fleet, Book One, Revision Two

Publisher: Amarillo Design Bureau

This exciting revision of the first volume includes the rules to play the Federation, Klingons, Romulans, Kzintis, Gorns, Tholians, and Orion pirates using the Call to Arms combat system. This system is miniatures-based (no hexes) and is very streamlined. There is no energy allocation (although some special actions will slow your ship down as your chief engineer diverts powers to whatever special order you gave). Each turn consists of one movement phase and one attack phase. Ships fire one at a time (or in squadrons), and if a ship is destroyed before it gets to fire... well, too bad!

All of the rules have been reviewed, clarified as needed, and are now in one location. All of the ships have had their stats reviewed and errors corrected. There has been extensive playtesting of this version. You will find that the ease of play has been retained, so large battles can be handled quickly.

We are releasing the basic version as pay what you want in fulfillment of the promise that people who purchased the first edition would get free replacement of the rules and ship rosters. This is a limited-time offer.

This product is being done as a joint venture with Mongoose Publishing Ltd., under the strict terms of ADB, Inc.'s contract with Paramount Pictures Corporation.

Price – $19.95 USD
