Introduction

For those of you that missed it, White Dwarf #225 introduced a new set of space combat rules based on some ideas from Space Fleet and combined some elements from Epic Warhammer 40,000 and will probably be the basis for Battle Fleet Gothic As the rules were very basic, I've filled in what I hope are a number of gaps (like ramming, boarding parties and new weapons) along with more ships and sample fleets. The new rules are based on ideas from Space Fleet, Star Fleet Battles, Babylon 5 and just about every other kind of sci-fi programme. If you have any other ideas then email me with them. Be warned: the rules and ships have not been extensively playtested and might be a bit dodgy. Some feedback would be appreciated.
