Should have went with Air & Armor. Fantastic two player game. ;)

Yeah, by all accounts a much better modern combat game system.

Nope. I'd beat my opponent with the star fleet battles rule book if they tried that.

No.  People who do that outside of a tournament setting are the gaming equivalent of sweaty ass cracks.

I remember my friend spending a huge amount of time figuring out where to move his carrier BG in sixth fleet. Only for me to hit it with a badger and backfire strike.
