Campaign Ideas

My friend over on Super Galactic Dreadnought

had a few questions

about doing a star ship campaign,

http://supergalacticdreadnought.blogspot.com/2011/04/campaign-wishes.html

here are my answers:
*******************************************************

Had a few ideas how to go about this that I wanted to run by you.

I must admit up front to being a big Firefly fan, so here goes.

Place the planetary system in-between two rival powers with
a civil war ongoing backed covertly by the two powers. This is
where your players come in.You give your players each a
Corvette classed ship (second line)and they have to be the
gun runners one of the sides in the conflict. They would have
to pick up the weapons transport them back to the planet, moon,

space station or faction ship. All the while avoiding both the small
planetary defense forces of the other faction and patrol ships of
the other major power.

*******************************************************
This campaign can be run by you separately and then folded into
my bigger campaign this summer...more on that to follow.

Salute Walkers

Hi,

As Salute draws near I thought I'd post up some pictures of my latest painting work. They are some more walkers from The Baggage Train.

Jackson Gamers' NAMES For the Players

A bit of a change of pace....been eyeing my vast collection of medieval troops...Time to blow the dust off them, and with that in mind!

Every medieval leader or king who was anybody had a nickname. Think of "Charles the Bold", "Richard the Lionhearted" or Sulieman "the Magnificent". Now our players can have a nickname too. Each player will roll a D20 before the game starts and can find his "Battle name" on this chart. If a name is already taken, use the one below it. If that takes you "past 20" on the list, wrap back to the name number 1.

1	The Bold
2	The Bloody
3	The Strong
4	The Firm
5	The Weak
6	The Idle
7	The Flatulent
8	The Greedy
9	The Grasping
10	The Valiant
11	The Rapacious
12	The Plunderer
13	The Little
14	The Great
15	Hawkbeak
16	Squint-Eye
17	The Evil
18	Fair-Hair
18	The Pious
20	The Drunkard
