Re: [GZG] [FT] Genghis Con AAR's?

[Mike Stanczyk <stanczyk@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Genghis in Denver went well.  Nobody lynched me after the game. ;-)
That's the GM's mark of success right?

We had eight players showup for the cross-over battle.  Half experienced
players, half new people.

We mixed Star Wars, Star Trek and B5.  With the new fighter rules,
sort of.  I screwed up and mixed in some old fighter rules by mistake
but none of the players noticed.

It got very busy for me as a first time GM but Scott Field got me
through it fine.  Sadly, I was so busy I have no pictures of the
battle or the players.  :-(

General observations:
Grazers are nasty weapons if they strike.  Of the grazer shots in the game,
between 1/3 to 1/2 hit.

I like fighter better under the newest playtest rules, even though I
butched them, than I did before.

Laminated fighter counters with boxes for fighter count are nice.  I don't
have any fighters on stands so I made a counter with six boxes, a picture and
laminated it.  Dead fighters were marked with an overhead marker.
Worked great!

Mixing Star Trek and Star Wars led to some strange events.  Tie fighters
attacking the Enterprise-D and going pop.  Tie fighters vs Starfuries was
an even matchup.

Since I have questions about the new fighter rules, I'm planning on running
a dummy game at home with the same situations I saw in the game and post it
to the lists for comments.  "Can I use a P-torp against fighters?"

Hopefully we'll have some of the players show up on the list and post an ARR.
