Title: Flying Colors
Post by: Rindis on June 26, 2016, 03:20:13 pm

Got a game of this in yesterday, and just posted it to my blog:

Revel Bay (http://www.rindis.com/blog/3613)

A little more effort to get back into the system than I hoped (this was my second game), and a lot more frustration with the wind than I would have liked :), but the game went well.

Whew. Without having any knowledge of those rules they sound pretty crunchy.
It's a neat scenario though, and the little chits for play look cool. Seems pretty portable.

Great write-up! Thanks for posting. I always keep a weather eye on GMT products, as the are quite intriguing. So far, the only one I own is their Space Empires 4x though!

Space Empires is a great game! I've played it... not nearly as often as I'd like.

And the system is pretty good; there's a fair number of modifiers flying about, but it does handle fleet actions pretty well.
