DW: Hurricane Season / Re: Campaign Status (UPDATED 5/27 With Results of Game 3)

« on: May 31, 2018, 07:35:19 pm »

Covertwalrus,

That submarine was good fun, and I was not aware of it's reputation at the time of use.  Andy and I had discussed me using it for a game (maybe 2, we'll see how my list for operation Gitmo Bay looks).

The Deathbringer was good (knocked out a CL, FF and finished the BB), but I think the Liberty carried the Lion's share of the load that game. 

The shield (3) and Sustained fire 3 on turrets gives even an unlinked shot a good chance to put damage on a large model.

Certainly not opposed to playing a space combat game, but I'm already stretched pretty thin with work/life balance. 
Another game system is not something I need at this point. 

Cheers!

Roll Call / Got Sturginum?

Greetings All,

Fairly new to the forums, but I've been around the game since early on.  My group stopped playing just after 1.5.

I came across Ruckdog on a local forum, and now I'm the guy running through Hurricane Season with him.

DW has been my only tiny ship game as I'm mostly a 40k/Sigmar player.  I'll add Polyversal to the list once I have it in-hand.

Good to be here!

-Matt

Had our first round last night. Not sure what Andy's plans are, but I'll see about coming up with an after-action report.

 Maybe we can bounce what we remember off of each other and summarize the report with a narrative write-up.

Here's my quickish summary (going to take a few updates)-

FSA Fleet (replaced Covenant in this scenario):

Naval Group 1-
Deployed where EoBS Commodore had to exit.
 -Battleship +3 Escorts (Shield, Commodore)
- 4 Reveres

Naval Group 2
-Battleship (Kinetic)
-2 Princeton (Shields)

Aerial
-Valley Airship (target painter)
-Justice Robot Squadron (2 JH, 3 Freedom)

EoBS/PE Fleet (from memory)-

Naval 1-
Carrier (Commodore, randomly determined for scenario)
4 Frigate

Naval 2-
Heavy Battleship+3 escorts (Shield)
3 Lt Cruiser
4 Frigates

Aerial-
Big Zappy Blimp,not air carrier
2 Pflichts
