Up next...Galactic Knights

 

The yeoman called out, "Captain, Sir, there is a rabbit  hole, I mean wormhole ahead."

 Since my buddy Roger has some serious PT (physical therapy, nothing to do with the Patrol Torpedo boats) scheduled for Fridays--as he calls it " They get here at 11:30 and I go to bed before 1." 

 Seemed like a good time to introduce Greg to galactic Knights. Despite the number of games played, we never sat down to try these rules out. That changed last Friday, Greg and I played with six ships each, ranging from star bomber up to cruiser. His force roughly handled mine...I will need to rethink angles in a game like below.

                                 

I have some ships in the Terran, Aquarian fleets, a few in both the Avarian and Entomolian fleets.

 My largest force is the Aquarian... 

Here are the cruisers of the 'Green Hell' squadron.

It was a full afternoon, explaining the rules, going over the background of  the various fleets. We played a ship-centric game, both using Terran ships-the background gives 'reasons' each fleet could fight like fleets.  

Suffice it to say Greg left   with the ships that he played with, and a look on his face that has translated to ordering the rules and some extra ships.  Since Friday.  Now there will be a shift in projected games for March as more ships races and fluff get added to the mix'. Roger's large Carnivore fleet and my Aquarians will make an appearance to make life challenging to the new Terrans in town.  When Roger was told of the game and Greg's reaction, 'another rabbit hole' was part of his response. 

Me? a small order to replace some Terran ships, the Entomolian rules and maybe a st of the starbase components. At least that is the plan.  Rabbit hole, indeed.
